No, this is not a teasing subject line. That's the topic! Better than sex is a fairly common expression. But what actually is? Nominations, please!

I suppose that might depend on how you define sex.

True...that might matter for some. Let's use a more inclusive definition...when anyone of these connects with anyone of those as opposed to the narrow Clintonion definition where sex only happens when this goes there.

(The latter definition also popular, if you read the papers, among the junior high set who deny that doing that "counted.")

So what does "Better than Sex" mean, really?

For instance, does it mean if there was a really hot babe standing next to you wearing little or no clothing saying, "Let's get it on, baby!", that you would turn the offer down in favor of the other thing that's (supposedly) better?

No idea...I don't use the expression. I don't suppose a tradeoff is absolutely required. How about "I've done A; I've done B. B is better."

There is a cake called a Better than sex cake. I have eaten it but I can't say it is better than sex.

The sleeping after the sex is, well I don't know if it's better, but it's damn close.

There was an article in the papers recently about some folks who do nothing but attend movies all day and evening and to the extent any were gainfully employed it was only to support the habit. One got the impression that they would be lacking one half of the knowledge necessary to make a valid sex vs. movie-watching comparison.

It's like the common saying "the best thing since sliced bread". Well, what was the best thing before sliced bread?

Better than sex? Hmmm. That's a tough one, especially since I've never had sex. How about good affection and true love between people? I think that's the most important thing.
