Making love. Having sex. To many, these are just two different expressions for the same act.
One is even tempted to ask, aren't both of these things supposed to mean the same thing? Afterall, the bottom line is that in both situations, bodies connect and sexual sparks are sent flying. So what could possibly be the distinguishing factor between these two?
Having sex versus Making love
Apparently there is a difference between when you make love and when you have sex.
And the singular distinction is in the state of mind of both people engaging in the act; the level of connection and all the situations surrounding and leading up to the act itself.
Sex is in itself primal; a basic need that is just as instinctive and naturally occurring as the hunger for food. The need to satisfy the urge for sex and to feel the gratification that comes from humping is not on the same level as love-making.
Chimps, rabbits, bulls, Zebras... they all have sex. That's exactly the category into which that need belongs. It is a thing devoid of the emotional dimension that sex often comes with.
