sex or perfect health what would you choose?
perfect health 4ever in exchange for the lack of ANY sexual pleasure
this health means immune to disease, poison or any illness. and even in old age yoo would be hale and look FAR younger. but there would be NO sensation in your "lower regions"

As a young man I would have said i'll pay the doctor
but as an older man who has been sick i'm thinking otherwise

I love sex, I really do... But I'd rather have a good platonic relationship with someone I really click with, and perfect health, than a good sexual relationship and failing health.

You've got to be kidding AE!!! Perfect health!! I'd give anything (almost) for that. Sex is fun, but highly over rated. Aches and pain are the pits and just get worse and worse. Enjoy the painfree years now, young ones

I'll have to remind everyone that this forum has a lot of young members, so please don't be too explicit when posting in this thread.

My philosophy: you're going to die anyways, what's the point in slowing it down? I'm just going to be the one who remains healthy for a long time, but not my whole life. Give me ten more years. We'll see what I say then.

Ha ha! I understand your saying that, but believe me, as you get closer to the end of your years, life becomes very dear. The older you are, often the more you have to live for also. Husband/ wife, children and grandchildren, nieces, nephews, friends. The beautiful home and/or nice lifestyle you've worked your a** off to achieve. The point of slowing it down is so you can enjoy life as long as possible! When you're dead, that's it baby! Also, being ill or in pain is awful. Being in the hospital even worse. It's outrageously expensive, if you can even afford it! Gad, I'm depressing myself! I'll stop

This thing works nicely on the contradiction of sex possibly being very risky for your health (STD, heart attack) and while with perfect health you could really rock the boat, even as an old man...
I'd go for sex, though.

Incidentally, although noldo is correct, a practice of complete abstinance until marrige and unmitigated monogamy after has practically none of the risks he stated, and provides an environment in which sex can become very fulfilling indeed...
At least, that's my hypothesis. I'll begin the experiment when I have the funding and supplies, but in the meantime, you guys can be my control, ok?

I'd take perfect health. I'll just have to find other ways to amuse myself.

Did you know that having sex with a virgin is illigal in Washington State? Even if it's your wedding night!
