Interesting, marriage these days is all about sex, but if you believe that you won't fit in. Odd state of affairs, that.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

I say this because most married people seem to have sex for the "fun of it" and not recognizing that it is indeed a sacred enterprise, not something like playing monopoly or a football game. There's a lot that's very right, for most people, about pursuing a fulfilling sex life, in or out of lasting/committed relationships, absent of the 'goal' of procreation but it depends on the people involved. If you don't see the value in it, so be it. Not everyone has a strong sex-drive. You need to realise though that you may well think that because of religious indoctrination; secretly you could be doing yourself serious psychological harm by not expressing your sexuality.
Quote:The function of it is to bear children, and so many people don't have the child bearing part of it in mind.
Mainly untrue. The reason why condoms exist is because people are very aware that sex can result in children!
Quote:It's just gross, selfish self fulfillment, no appreciation for the creative act. The attitude, even toward sex within marriage these days, is one of having their cake and eating it too.
Nope, for those who seek it, it's to have a deeper, physical and emotional intimacy with the person they love. Good sex enhances relationships.
Quote:Why is it, even in society that the essential baby-making part of sex is downplayed to the hedonistic side of it (even within "sacred' marriages?)
I'd suggest that's not true. Instead you're falling for a misrepresentation, created by those who have a vested interest in making good sex seem bad/dirty/sinful for their own gain.

I know its harsh, but sometimes you've got to put a little effort into something if you want it. Pm me if you want some specifics.
This type of comment comes from someone who either doesn't realise that you don't make friends by insulting people or is a troll.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Fairly sure he designed the orgasm for the man to spill his seed into the woman's womb. The female orgasm is admittedly useless.
I know its fun, but its not like its good to have. It's just a temptation for women to resist. I mean a gal can conceive without it it right?
Id try to orgasm less. You might feel better about yourself as a person.
The female orgasm is an awesome thing ... Do NOT sell it short, baby. Maybe you need a few hundred more?

Nah... Mama's into a not-so-respectable woman right now, and the feeling's mutual. No lack of effort, either; that's for sure!

Depends where you live.
Even some states in America still allow girls as young as thirteen to marry.
I am personally of the concept that biological readiness is a sign of sexual readiness, but perhaps not mental preparedness.
