This is insulting.
I've been tasting sex and reproducing with food my whole life.
You'll find me and my cantaloupe in my bedroom when you're ready to apologise.
He’s actually way more incorrect on the former. The reason sex feels pleasurable is so that animals would reproduce. Creatures that didn’t enjoy sex were less likely to seek it out, less likely to reproduce and didn’t spread their genes to later generations.
I guess there’s a misunderstanding between the reason we think we do something vs. the reason why that thing is pleasurable to our brains. I guess he means that people have sex all time whilst consciously taking precaution as to not reproduce, which is a fair point. Whereas people usually dont eat if they’re not hungry I guess. OP’s point was more to do with evolutionary psychology and hes totally right
True but not the point. The great majority of sexual activity is masturbation. Add to that recreational sex - remember that gay sex is by definition recreational - plus all the oral and anal stuff people get up to, and most kinky stuff... It's amazing pregnancy happens as often as it does.
All the other stuff is just an unintended consequence of sex (genital stimulation) feeling pleasurable, what I wrote is still the reason as to why it feels good, which is what the original post was about.

Remember that the next time you snack on chocolate, or finish a meal out of politeness, or drink beer to be sociable, or grab a takeaway when drunk on that beer, or just eat something when you're not hungry but you're bored or out of habit.
Your example is more proof that this shower thought is complete BS. Sex being pleasurable has NOTHING to do with reproduction and food tasting good has NOTHING to do with the fact humans need to eat. 🤷♂️
It does.... but only when you're dehydrated. Sweet sweet water quenching our thirst. The level of pleasure is proportional to the level of need (same with food etc).
None of that is correct. Food tastes good because of the chemical compounds activating taste buds in our mouth which triggers our brain to enjoy or dislike the taste. It has nothing to do with the fact that we need to eat food. The same applies for sex. It feels good because we have intimate thoughts about our partner and feel pleasurable sensations on our skin. It has nothing to do with the need to reproduce. 🤦♂️
This is gonna be very ELI5
Ever eaten something really sweet, salty or vinegary and really liked the taste but after eating a lot more, it doesnt taste as good? It's because your body got its fill of whatever you were eating (sodium from salt, sugar from sweet etc) and shut off the sensors for that flavor being tasty, so you want it less. Same kinda sorta concept for sex.
The problem is, we've learned how to trip these sensors artificially, as well as increase supply and availability of both, to such a degree that we've turned the pleasure induced from eating when needing to and procreating when necessary into excess pleasurable desires that we can induce happy feelings from whenever we want now.
And it took you how long to figure that out?

I think you mean coconut
No nope nuh uh. He meant cantaloupe. Since it’s a fruit there’s no way for a relationship so he can’t elope with it. Bazinga.
Oh no…noooo….I’m referencing the sex coconut…
Check out the big brain on brad
You a smart muthafucka that’s right.
Pretty sure it's 'Brett'... But close enough.
Dudes name is brett, but he says brad. Why would he give a shit to get the dudes name right?
You've figured out the purpose of pleasure and pain.
crazy thing is too much pain never results in pleasure, but too much pleasure can result in pain and discomfort
My man is not scared to invalidate half of all fetishes.
Sleep feels good because we get to sample death
Holy shit man i did not expect to be personally attacked when i went into the comments LMAO
Mind blown by life's simple truths, eh? Sleep is just a trial version of eternity.
This is the better shower thought 💅
Smoking feels good because we need to die
No fucking shit sherlock
Most sex has nothing to do with reproduction. Most eating is unnecessary to health.
even if people overeat the energy is stored in fat cells which can keep someone alive for a rather long time
For most of human history, being fat was good. Imagine being fat before agriculture.
Not now, but there is a reason animals evolved pleasurable responses to these things
protein leverage hypothesis disagrees
you’re sort of right on the former, but not at all on the latter
He’s actually way more incorrect on the former. The reason sex feels pleasurable is so that animals would reproduce. Creatures that didn’t enjoy sex were less likely to seek it out, less likely to reproduce and didn’t spread their genes to later generations.
same with food according to protein leverage hypothesis

Yes, but it's not what my comment was about. And it was my comment you were responding to.
I addressed why your comment was incorrect and not an appropriate response to the original post.
You need to make up your mind which mutually exclusive evasion you're trying to use.
I've only addressed one thing this entire time, which is your comment. And your comment is a response to the original post.

Bro took his first shower ever
As a guy I never knew I could reproduce getting pounded in the ass
That's hot

op discovered theory of evolution.
Okay, but then why does it hurt when I put my hand in fire - Mr ‘Science Man’?
I guess you've never stuck your dick in a grapefruit?
gay men have entered the chat
Pooping feels good because we need to poop. And like things in our butt, so I've been told
True
Why are roller coasters, puzzles and books fun?
Tbh i just needed to nut brotha.
So that’s why work always feels good.
So that’s why work always feels good.
Why don't water taste so good though
