Why do you have sex?

At first blush that may seem like a stupid question, up there with why do you laugh, eat or pinch off a loaf in the morning? I mean derrr, you do it because it feels good, because shooting a hot load is the closest you can get to transcendence while shuffling around this dirt circle.

Think about the question again and try to peer past the mechanics: do you have sex for the act or the intimacy it brings? Is it the physical sensation that attracts you, the emotions it summons or both?
