If sex is a skill, with its attendant expectations, frustrations, and failures, you are graded on performance; if it is an expression of love and commitment, you are not graded at all.

About This Quote

Sex is a skill. It’s a skill that is performed by a person, and the person’s performance is evaluated by others. In other words, sex is a performance that can be measured and critiqued. There are expectations that you must meet in order to be successful.

Failure to deliver results in disappointment from those involved. When you think about it, isn’t this very similar to what we do with our work every day? We perform our tasks as best as we can, but our performance is always evaluated by others. Whether we are doing something for the sake of the task or because we love the idea of being a better person through it, we are bound by what other people expect from us.
