There is so much win in this article

The “we like sex” argument is a winning one, so why are so many people afraid to use it?

There’s no reason to be coy about any of this. Fucking is part of normal, everyday life. Sex is not special occasion behavior or only done for procreation. People have sex because they were sitting on the couch and were like, “Hey, we have 15 minutes.” Sure, it’s theoretically optional, but the notion that medical care only addresses the things we need strictly to survive is laughable to the extreme. If I screw my knee up exercising, the insurance company isn’t like, “No doctor for you, because you could have just sat on your ass from here until the end of time.” (Which is also an “optional” behavior that can cause health problems, so I guess no medical care for that either?) If I need an allergy prescription, my doctor doesn’t say, “Well, just stay inside all the time and you won’t have this problem,” even though leaving my house is, technically, optional. Same with vaccines. Insurance companies cover them even though being around other people is theoretically optional for a very simple reason: Health care is for people, and people do things, even if they could theoretically not do things. Indeed, the idea that sex is somehow exempt from medical care falls apart when you consider not just maternity care, but also things like STI testing. Incidentally, not having sex might also be a factor in health problems that insurance covers—god knows that undertaking voluntary celibacy for no good reason would probably create cause to rack up some mental health care bills.
