| Quote: | sex |seks|
noun
1 (chiefly with reference to people) sexual activity, including specifically sexual intercourse : he enjoyed talking about sex | she didn't want to have sex with him.
• [in sing. ] a person's genitals (used in novels to avoid more vulgar or anatomically explicit terms).
2 either of the two main categories (male and female) into which humans and most other living things are divided on the basis of their reproductive functions : adults of both sexes.
• the fact of belonging to one of these categories : direct discrimination involves treating someone less favorably on the grounds of their sex.
• the group of all members of either of these categories : she was well known for her efforts to improve the social condition of her sex. |
Which definition of sex are you referring to?
Is the second question supposed to be interpreted in the context of the first?
Is this question directed only at heterosexual cisgendered people, or can others also answer (maybe substituting "the same sex" (or "potential sexual partner" if it is a question about sexual activity or sexual intercourse) in the second question where applicable)?

But, well, is it a question about something along the lines of gender identity, or about sexual activity?
I don't mean to be pedantic but I don't totally understand what you're looking for.

| Simply enjoying eachothers bodies. That is never a crime. Although it is actually meaningful when love is involved. I prefer love. |

Intimate and enhancing or stirring up the cohesion between two lovers when love is involved.
Totally void and pointless when no feelings are involved, as simple tool of joy I rate sex very lowly. I want feelings to be involved, otherwise I dont see the point.
PS: I am a straight male

I'm a male, to answer your last question.
As for sex and its personal value, I can't say it really has value or meaning to me yet, since I haven't engaged in it once in my 21 years 
But as for how I define "sex", I think of it as a mutually accepted action between two people that are so engrossed in each other emotionally that they feel the need to express themselves physically. The idea of sex is a romantic one, but it is also an action/idea that has been misused so often. Guys and girls who have pre-maritial sex in a relationship become emotionally bound to each other, and when the inevitable break up occurs, it is harder to let your partner go emotionally because of fooling around. There is also that risk of getting pregnant (for women), which means that both partners will jointly have to care for the child they created. I believe that only people in marriage are mature enough and wise enough to engage in it, because the possible ramifications otherwise are not very exciting alternatives. Besides, if you marry, you are basically saying you're going to spend the rest of your lives together as one unit (although there are divorces), and that means there is a likelihood that you will stay together for a while as one unit, but don't take my word as law.
The opposite sex, what do they mean to me? I see females more as companions and friends primarily, I don't really see them as romantic interests as of now. Of course that can change if I met a girl that I would be smitten with, but I have yet to meet a girl who pleases me mentally and intellectually as well as being physically beautiful and attractive to my eye. Beauty and intelligence seem to be inverses of each other, but there are exceptions. As for how I see women, romantically speaking, I see them in somewhat of a negative light. I see them as romantically naive and too trusting in the notion of "love", to the point of believing they are in it when they obviously are infatuated with the possible idea of "love". I also believe they often trust so deeply in the realm of emotions, that they often can make poor choices because emotions override their sense of common sense (do pardon my repetitiveness). This is my opinion, take it or leave it, but you asked what the opposite sex means to me, and I told you the truth. |

I'm male. Slept with five people.
Sex to me can be split into two categories.
Sex, and making love. Sex is an activity, done for procreation, done with someone you don't know; a stress reliever, a fun thing to do.
Making love is what two people who care about each other a great deal do together. It is the closest they can get, becoming one in a beautiful moment. And all five of those girls is special to me for this reason. |

Sex is fun, but not nearly as life-enhancing as everyone seems to think. I like it, but I much prefer music 
Edit: PS, I'm a straight male. |

This part of the post matches for me, so I will quote it rather than answer myself.
As far as what the other sex means to me, I see females as other human beings and possibly friends or rivals, as I do males. But with females I sometimes also perceive them as potential partners- not that any such perception has yet come to fruition.

Sex consists entirely of pure, distilled awesome.
It is a dish best enjoyed on soft blankets in front of a vintage stereo hi-fi playing music that one can get lost in.
As for the purpose, right now it's just something that a very close friend and I enjoy. I'm so new to it (less than a month) that I couldn't say more. Other than I'm not in it just for sex, both people need to have some connection other than that for it to be worthwhile in my opinion.

[male, 31]
I'm not one much for casual sex; if there isn't an interest or connection, then it really isn't something that appeals to me which has been a surprise given my sex drive. With the right person, however, it is exhilarating... it is a deeply emotional and sensual experience. It is a moment of vulnerability, a sharing of passion, something to be treasured and celebrated often. I don't understand the mentality than shuns sexuality and sensuality and returns it to a merely procreative act. Are you asking in a sexual sense, or in a partner sense, regarding the opposite sex? Generally speaking, I do not endeavor to see a difference... people are people. Some I value, some I can do without.
