Sex also establishes the one flesh relationship between man and woman, which is a spiritual union as well as a physical one.
People who think that sex is just for making babies miss the whole point of it.
When God created mankind, He gave them BOTH the desire for it and the means to fulfill it and sometimes , but not every time, it results in children.
But Catholic reasoning as we’ve seen on this tread, then Elsie is right. Not only should it happen only in one one week period, once the woman s pregnant, all sex should stop because it’s being done only for pleasure, the very thing Catholics have been condemning on this and other related threads.
And included should be couples where the woman has had a hysterectomy and where she has reached menopause.
Since there is no opportunity for procreation in those situations, then the sex is strictly for the fun of it.
Oh, the horror!!!!!!
Yes, the horror of it all. I think I will just keep doing what I am doing. I am enjoying it. 😁😊🤣😇😆
And you are missing the whole point of the concept - which is NOT that sex is just for making babies - just that all acts of sex must be open to the possibility that making babies could be a consequence - a distinction that obviously you can’t or (more likely) refuse to acknowledge.
