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.

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