RE: Food or sex? Which would you give up?

I'd give up the fleeting pleasure derived from eating food. Sex as a means of emotional expression and connecting with one's partner is more valuable, IMO. It makes it distinct from relationships with other loved ones.
And as someone else mentioned, it would save money.

i'd give up food, i think the brain is designed to reward for sex way more than food. so pleasure wise sex over food makes sense to me
i could be dying and if sex comes up it'll make me forget about dying (at least until it's over)
i can't even eat when in a toilet

You can live without having sex, but you can't live without eating. If you take no pleasure in eating, then you'll inevitably become malnourished, because even if you do get around to it, it will be like eating paste. Nothing will taste good. Everything will be bland.
I grant that sex feels awesome, and it would be a sacrifice to get rid of that feeling, but it doesn't compare to food.

I’d give up the pleasure of sex, provided that doesn’t mean giving up sex.
I’d rather retain the pleasure in something I have to do 3 times a Day than something I can settle for 3 times a month.

I'm asexual and anorgasmic so I picked giving up the pleasures of sex, having never experienced an orgasm before. Not that I get too much pleasure from food either but I can at least enjoy it when stoned.

I'm too crazy and poor for relationships and not hot enough or a good enough seducer for hookups. So by picking sex, I'm not giving anything up but my solo time.
