I once asked a partner whether she wanted to make love or fuck.

Sexual politics are fr realz complicates.
For most peeps, love be tied to physical intimacy, whether they like it er nay. Guessin ev'lutionaryologists have somet'in to be saying about that, and I'd liken to hear em, 'cuz it be frustratin. I get to bein the jealous types meself, an don't knowin' why. Hope? Shame? Idealism? Why why does sex'n sometimes matterin', sometimes no, with the love.
Love be hard to define, mostly 'cuz it isn't an emotion but behavior based on a number of emotions--and therefore a choice, and therefore tailored personal-like--but in gen'ral it's caring about another peeps's wellbein enough that ye'd sacrifice ye own. Mixed up in self-perversation: nasty combo o' the mind emotions.
Yo.

Fuck is a very interesting word for a variety of reasons, even in its literal sense. You can make love, you can have sex with, you can sleep together, you can even couple with someone, but fuck is a verb, with a subject and an object. Someone fucks and someone gets fucked. I think that is part of why it is so distinct from love. It takes away the the partnership and cooperation of the act and focuses on the physical process. It would almost be clinical if it weren't so crude.

Romantic love is basically a mechanism to provide a stable environment for child-rearing. The impulsive next step, therefore, is to get busy making that child. Or at least tricking our bodies into thinking that's what we are doing, when in fact we are usually fortified with contraception.
It's also about the fact that love is emotional intimacy, so we are far more open to being physically intimate with those we are already emotionally intimate with.

Sorry. The beard passed 50% grey a while back, but what's left on the head & the rest is still brown.
Well, was.
Sorry. Being hit by a car's messing with my sense of immortality... :-D
