Sunday in Outer Blogness: see no homosexuals edition!
This week’s big Mormon news story was Elder Bednar’s public claim that there are no homosexual members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! It was the same tired old claim that you shouldn’t label yourself (with labels that the church doesn’t like) and pretending like that’s somehow…
Sunday in Outer Blogness: Everything is coming up gay again!

Some reasons for having sex:

* Emotional reasons such as love and commitment (I wanted to feel connected) and expression (I wanted to say thank you).
* Insecurity-based reasons, including self-esteem (I wanted the attention), a feeling of duty or pressure (My partner kept insisting) and to guard a mate (I wanted to keep my partner from straying).
This is not to mention when these reasons overlap…or cancel each other out and sex is still had. =p
There are at least 237 reasons to have sex.
I stand corrected 😉
