i'd like you to clarify your position a little. i don't see how the purpose of sex does not change how we can expect humans to engage in sex.the standard 'lol biotruthers, don't you know humans evolved past their original caveman biological functions' retort is dumb as all heck.
socialists with your nonsense, humans are not divorced from their biology, nearly every facet of our mental existence is defined by the limitations of our bodies.
Uh, that's not what I meant at all. The purpose of sex is not, and hasn't been for a very long time in evolutionary terms, solely reproductive. A bunch of Greek dudes decided it was at some point and then Christianity capitalized on that, but it's not. Go look out across the swath of animals. See the elder male lizard allowing the younger to enter his territory so long as he gets to bone the younger one. Look at the cows and hen mounting each other to signify they've entered heat to the males. Watch the two bonobo males engage in penis fencing, the two bonobo females engage in face-to-face sex featuring the rubbing of their genitals. Observe the young vixen attempt to mount her mother.
It's funny listening to a biotruther explanation of human sexuality like in the Red Queen, then he mentions that male homosexuals and female homosexuals have different sexualities but then completely ignores the fact that they're opting out of reproductive sex? Durr??

Gay cows can't reproduce dude. Think about it. *smokes a pipe*
marriage isnt a babymaking contract either you weirdo
one might also argue that there's more to food than nutrition so nutrition couldn't possibly be the 'purpose' of 'food'.

you seem to be confusing 'purpose' with 'emergent behaviors'.

It makes sense to speak of purpose for any part of behavior or biology that has one. My throat has a purpose. A sex drive has a purpose. But just as my throat allows both air and food, sex provides both reproductive and non-reproductive benefits.
If sex was just about reproduction, we'd use the "cloacal kiss" of birds.

you're babbling nonsense, no one is arguing to the contrary of what you're saying. sex is not just about reproduction, mating rituals are not just about sex, great.
you might be shocked, but even human reproduction isn't just about reproduction, otherwise we'd be squirting crotchspawn all over the place. makes ya wond.er
behaviors are complicated so who are we to say that we piss in order to urinate?

Uh, Jared Diamond-style arguments are totally based on the idea that sex is all about reproduction. They seek to explain sex solely in terms of reproductive strategies. women adulter to obtain better genes. men adulter to obtain more biological children.
The purpose of showing these parallels is not, the way you describe it, to redefine humanity as a bunch of automatons, but rather to explore the presumed origins of our behavior and everything that it yielded since (aka human civilization).

for example, oftentimes, when trying to get a male bull to ejaculate so that they can get sperm for artificial insemination, they find it does not react to a female cow, so they bring in a young steer. a lot of the time, it will then ejaculate. EXPLAIN THAT, JARED DIAMOND.
Wow A Gay Cow

Vulcans are actually hyperemotional, that's why they act all controlled all the time. You Dumb Ass.

i'm torn. on the one hand good on cyclone teen keeping his lumpy retard roger rabbit genes out of the pool. otoh cyclone teen if asexual proclivities are genetic then you can do a great service to antinatalism by being like that dude who fathered like 300 kids through sperm banks. cut off the breeding lines of hundreds. it might be tough for you but i bet with enough elbow grease you could go into that little room and crank one out a week while thinking about the space shuttle or 1980s vcr repair manuals or whatever the fuck. give yourself for the cause is what i'm saying
Hmm, an interesting argument. I'll deffo consider it.

hurr even though all historical data shows that dudes will fuck dudes w/o a second thought if they culture tells them it's cool, i'm going to go on believing that "exclusive heterosexuality" is real.
