Is There Such a Thing as Good Enough Sex?

Out in the real world we don't talk about sex that much.  When we do, sex is either something to be feared or exalted.  It’s heaven or hell, transcendence or sinful.  

I’m in the unique position of having talked one on one with thousands of people about their sex lives.  So I can say, with some certainty that most of the sex we are having is none of the above.  I believe most of the sex we have is good enough.  And this week I want to propose that good enough sex is, well, good enough.  ~ Cory

When Sex Is Good Enough  

Does sex always have to end in a mind blowing orgasm?  Does it always have to be worthy of a story later told, or a fantasy later evoked?  What would happen to how we all feel about our sex lives if we more honest with each other and ourselves about how we feel about the sex we’re having?
