The upshot is: sex is no different than eating, they are both bodily functions and they are both a matter of taste. If I don't care if you like Chinese food or not - why on earth would I care about your sexual tastes? Unless I plan on seducing someone - I couldn't care less about their personal sex life. Why would you? There are eating disorders, too. Bulimina and gluttony, for instance. After all, in eating more is involved than "taste"(pleasure); ditto, sex. You may think that the primary purpose of sex is achieving orgasm, but that is supposed to be a means of aiding the reproductive process, whose end is the survival of the species.

Yes - that is true, but there are also corresponding sexual disorders too - erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, etc. (of course, I would have no personal experience with these!)

Again - that's true, but we do use birth control pills, IUDs, condoms and the "rhythm method" to bypass the reproductive process.
