What would you be willing to permanently give sex for?

Is there anything for which one would be willing to permanently give up all sex, masturbation and orgasm?

ETA: ok, that OP title is supposed to say “permanently give UP sex”; not permanently give sex. &aha.

Knowing that I will be gainfully employed from now up until the day I die.

Good answer. :cool:

Such a deal with the Devil would result in you dying tomorrow.

Sex is overrated. I like it fine, but intimacy and friendship trump sex any day for me.

And?

really fantastic sexy dancing with multiple very good partners 3 nights a week.

This is probably a true deal with the devil as likely nothing would make me want sex more.

Nothing. Sex is one of life’s few sublime pleasures. This is like asking for what I would give up laughter or friendship. These are things that make me happy, and a life without them would just be sad.

Nothing.

About 11 years ago when I had my back injury, I couldn’t for about two months. Extremely frustrating. I can’t imagine that as a permanent condition.

Are we to presume that we’re still capable of having children (possibly with medical aid)? Because that’s something I haven’t done yet, but would very much like to eventually.

And could we still take part in sex acts (such as oral or manual stimulation of a partner) that don’t lead to us having orgasms?

Yes and yes.

Under these conditions, I would take the deal for lifelong health, success in my acting career, etc.

I would trade in sex for something better than sex. I don’t know what that could be. I eagerly await the invention of the Orgasmatron.

I would trade sex for being able to use heroin without any addiction or health consequences.

Ahh but what if you were a heroin addict who wanted to get clean; would you trade sex for sobriety?

I have never used or been addicted to heroin, but I have been addicted to Xanax (which some say is harder to kick than heroin), and I was able to detox from that as an outpatient, and I didn’t have to give up sex.

So, no.

Try to answer it as a hypothetical; as if giving up sex (forever) is a prerequisite for you getting clean. Would your answer change?

No, getting clean is not worth giving up sex. I would require something better than mere sobriety.

Do I really need two kidneys? :smiley:
To answer the actual OP question, I can’t think of anything.

Not a thing.
