I came across this piece on Scott Adam's blog and found it quite interesting. Thought others here might find it interesting too:

So if you are wondering how men become cold-blooded killers, it isn't religion that is doing it. If you put me in that situation, I can say with confidence I would sign up for suicide bomb duty. And I'm not even a believer. Men like hugging better than they like killing. But if you take away my access to hugging, I will probably start killing, just to feel something. I'm designed that way. I'm a normal boy. And I make no apology for it.
Now consider the controversy over the Syrian immigrants. The photos show mostly men of fighting age. No one cares about adult men, so a 1% chance of a hidden terrorist in the group – who might someday kill women and children – is unacceptable. I have twice blogged on the idea of siphoning out the women and small kids from the Caliphate and leaving millions of innocent adult men to suffer and die. I don't recall anyone complaining about leaving millions of innocent adult males to horrible suffering. In this country, any solution to a problem that involves killing millions of adult men is automatically on the table.
If you kill infidels, you will be rewarded with virgins in heaven. But if you kill your own leaders today – the ones holding the leash on your balls – you can have access to women tomorrow. And tomorrow is sooner.

Are you seriously arguing that sex isn't for bonding as well as making babies? There's at on of research evidence out there that oxytocin levels spike during and immediately after sex and oxytocin itself is primarily about bonding people together. Not to mention the resentment from somebody holding out.

There are serious problems associated with long periods of time without sex.

Also, that link has nothing to do with the passage you quoted.

There are also serious problems for a woman if she has sex when she is not enthusiastic about it, so since a man needs sex it would behoove him to learn how to create a relationship and environment that leads to her being enthusiastic about sex.
