Sex Without Love, is a Meaningless Experience

What semantics do you use to describe something, or sex in particular, as meaningless?

Edit: Oops, my bad. Breezer already answered this very question in the thread title.

As was said about the "Free Love" movement of the 60s, It wasn't Free, and it wasn't Love, but it wasn't bad...

All or most animals do it but not one has ever explained the difference between that and love?

Love doesn't need sex in my opinion. What if your husband or wife is disabled in a way that no sex is possible anymore? Love is still there, isn't it?

Love and sex are totally independent. And sex without love isn't a meaningless experience as I stated before. Sex and love as all actions are never meaningless. All what someone does has a meaning.

My rabbit is castrated but totally in love with his new girlfriend. But when he wasn't castrated yet he chased the older rabbit who died recently. She was hiding behind a wall. I had to help her.

True love is a dog who sacrifices his life to save his humans from a house fire.

I heard there were types. Agape, philia, storge (family). Counterfeit is not love. I agree with Tina Turner.

If you marry someone out of lust and dump em when they get sick or cheat on them with half the neighbourhood, that sounds more like hate to me.

physiologically sex obviously has a functional purpose - it's NOT just about love. It's also about procreation - I once read about a forest tribe of humans were the women were very dominant ; strong willed and all lived alone from the men together in a forest glade. When they wanted sex or pregnancy they invaded the mens village and had their way with the men? - just saying??
 
My case is surely different, but for me sex without love was indeed meaningless. As a young gay man, I had multiple partners because I was looking to fulfill some need within myself for validation and prove that I was valued by someone else. This was only because I didn't value myself. I was always safe and I had a few relationships come from the encounters, but mostly people wanted a one night stand and moved on. It made me feel more empty than if I'd never met them. I'm sure my respose may turn some off but the question was asked so I'm answering.

Fortunately I met my hubby 34 years ago. More of our attraction was cerebral than physical and I think that's why we've lasted so long.
