Why does sex feel so good.....

I think about that a lot too. Amazing how such an intelligent species can be so overwhelmed by sexual thoughts and feelings.
 
Can't forget those for sure. When we were kids, we thought sex was disgusting. Amazing how some sex hormones change us.

Sex can still be disgusting if you do it right. The difference is now we want it.
 
Like some others have mentioned, it feels so good because we wouldn't do it otherwise. And our species wouldn't last too long if we all the sudden stopped...

I also like the emotional pleasure that comes along with the physical. There you are with this other person who has decided to engage in the ultimate act of connecting emotionally with you. (Yes, obviously there are plenty of people out there who have sex with no real attachment. But I'm not talking about those people here.)
 
It's pretty much been said. It's human nature to do what gives us pleasure and avoid what doesn't. If sex wasn't pleasurable, we wouldn't be so quick to do it and humanity (as we know it) would soon die out. Of course there are more than a few of us who have worked out how to have the pleasurable bit without the procreative bit. :)
 
I don't think the animal kingdom is much different. They probably daydream and have fantasies too. Most of them only have a two track mind. Eat. Have sex.
