It's hard to beat great sex.

But, particularly for singletons, sex isn't always easy to come by.

Then too, as far too may people know, there is also never a guarantee that sex is going to be great.

Luckily, sex is far from the only known form of pleasure.

Some might even say there are other things which are even more pleasurable than sex, and likely much easier to come by.

Redditor sparklingshanaya was curious to learn the things people find as or more pleasurable than sex, leading them to ask:

"What is an alternative but equivalent pleasure to sex?"


Always a relief.

"One of those really big pressure relieving poops."- jimmygreen717

"Taking a big long pee after holding it in for an age."- BilboSwaggins1993

Side-splittinngly funny!

"A real good laugh."

"I mean a real, hearty, can barely breathe laugh."

"Sadly rare, though."- dqflynn

Unbridled comfort.

Hot and steamy... literally...

"On a cold and rainy day, taking a hot shower after you have been outside for a while."- 177Columbus

Hitting the sheets...

"Putting clean, fresh sheets on your bed, and then crawling under them while they're still cool, enveloping you in that fresh laundry scent as they gently settle around you."- NihilisticPollyanna

True love

For those of you going through a dry spell, maybe consider giving some of these a try.

Hillary Clinton Perfectly Thanks Team Trump For Attacking Walz As 'Tampon Tim'

MAGA Fans Accused Kyle Rittenhouse Of Being Secretly Trans After He Criticized Trump—Because Of Course

The far-right didn't take kindly to Kyle Rittenhouse after he criticized former President Donald Trump's Second Amendment stance, baselessly accusing him of being transgender in an attempt to discredit him.

Rittenhouse has long been a darling among the right since he was acquitted of all charges relating to the fatal shootings of Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and injuring Gaige Grosskreutz during the 2020 Kenosha unrest, sparked by the shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man who was left paralyzed from the waist down after being shot by a white police officer.

George Conway Uses Resurfaced RFK Jr. Post To Drag Him After Bizarre Dead Bear Story

Conservative attorney George Conway used an old post on X, formerly Twitter, to mock Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is facing heavy criticism after admitting that in 2014 he found a dead bear cub on the road and then bizarrely placed it in New York City's Central Park to make it look like it had been hit by a bicycle.

Kennedy revealed to MAGA actor Roseanne Barr that he and some friends were responsible for dumping the bear cub after finding it dead. He said "people were drinking with me who thought [it] was a good idea" to stage an accident. He claimed the idea came to him at the time because he was running late for another engagement.
