Although there is a sense of being impersonal ... for me, it's not impersonal at all. Perhaps a little bit of that is "this" is the way that I achieve my personal satisfaction because I do not date.
When there is a connection, even for a short period of time, I feel completely tuned in and completely "there".
And honestly, who says that screwing is a plain jane activity? I find that it can be a pretty wild ride.

And even though we on this board commercialize the mating function, we still are susceptible to its instinctual imperatives.
Intercourse promotes connections because it is interactive and demands reciprocity. When I am making love I am constantly looking for verbal and physiological clues on how to please my partner and bring her to orgasm. I rarely close my eyes during sex (except during a great blow job) because I need to see and enjoy the fruits of my efforts.
Some of this may be the bi-product of age and reduced orgasmic capacity. I usually save my solitary O for the end of a session so for me to be "giving" to my partner is in part a selfish stragem to prolong the session, but it has its rewards. There is nothing sweeter or more compelling than simultaneous orgasms that culminate a session. It doesn't happen often, but it does, instinctually, create a warm bond.
These warm feelings may be only chemical in nature but we should embrace them. Happiness and satisfaction, even if short-lived, are too rare to be disregarded, even if money has been exchanged.
I apologize for my lengthy outpouring. I am snowbound and a bit bored.
