Maybe sex isn't that great compared to new activities from a reward center perspective. Maybe the prevalence of circumcision in the US could explain why sex is less enticing than these other new activities.

Sex is the peak of human connectivity and intimacy. It is literally the reason you are here today.

If you aren't good at sex or have bad sex, practice. That includes becoming physically fit to increase your stamina and strength during sex with your partner.

> Sex is the peak of human connectivity and intimacy.

This philosophy is a recipe for a disastrous relationship. Every single person I've ever talked to in a long-running successful marriage has told me that sex is not a substitute for emotional intimacy, and that emotional intimacy is the core of their marriage that survives even as they age and even as they start to have sex less.
