Love got your panties in a bunch? Drop trou and @honeymag’s resident sexpert, will answer your juiciest questions. So get @Wale and spill it.

Q: What’s the difference between making love and f*cking?

A: I’ve never considered myself a sex addict, though I do enjoy an occasional nut as much as the next guy. But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned to appreciate the value of the highest form of physical attraction/affection — making love. Most of us get the urge often; mine normally come after a night of weed and alcohol… or that morning stretch. Not sure how my ladies’ urges occurs or how often. You all tend to be quite sporadic and random with your hormones.

The art of making love seems like a pastime, whereas f*cking, has become this generation’s making-out. I think men pursue it a bit more aggressively then women — after clubs, after school, etc. I personally enjoy the occasional quickie but never OD. Too much sex can be counterproductive, and truthfully, I’m pursuing monogamy — even if it is pessimistically searching. Sexing, in my humble opinion, has nothing to do with feelings or physical attraction for that matter. I think a woman can be sexy but not cute or bun-able (aka “wifeable” in DC terminology). These women are the ones who get me thinking ‘bout pulling their hair back and moving some furniture, but nothing more then a 15-minute — 25 if there’s some VSOP nearby. There is no passion, no strings attached. There may be welts and bruises.


It’s essentially a sexual spar between two vigorous opponents — with no losers. Henney with no chase.
  It’s essentially a sexual spar between two vigorous opponents — with no losers. Henney with no chase.  No Jodeci. No kissing. Get your clothes and leave when it’s over. Please don’t sleep next to me. Please don’t call me for 24 hrs… and we can do this again.

But don’t assume I haven’t been on the receiving end. I’ve even mistaken a f*ck for a love session before. Not fun.  Making love is simply put: poetry in motion. Stroke her to the beat of her favorite song. Strawberries, Champagne, a bubble bath, eye contact. Hearing her heart beat while slowly handling business.

The aftermath of lovemaking is almost as important as the actual act. Gazing at the ceiling until we doze off. Running fingers through hair. Her playing with the dreads, ears, or whatever she deems necessary after the act. Sometimes a female needs to be reminded that there are feelings behind the sex. And to never be confused with sexing.

Making love, in my opinion is what makes the world go round. The toughest dude, the most cold hearted gold-digger — they all have that thing. Even if it’s buried in a dark place. I believe the art of making love (when it ACTUALLY is LOVE… MUTUALLY) is like an exercise of the soul. It’s like massaging the deepest feeling you could have for someone. For fear of sounding like the turning point of a Tyler Perry flick, I’ll gracefully bow out of the in-depth description, but before I go, I want to remind everyone that the difference between sexing and making love should never be confused.

Love safe, love hard, and love consistently!

    “I’m pursuing monogamy — even if it is pessimistically searching.”

    I had to cosign that one.

    This was very well written. I am surprised that men think this way. Ever so often I am reminded that men can be thoughtful and do have emotions, even though they are often “buried in a dark place”.

    WOW.. IMPRESSED……………..

  27. Eric Hunt says:

    on the point of love making and fucking you have to be in a trance almost if you feel me and stay at the platau because it can easily get carried away but thats not bad im just responding to love making and f***ing . but i feel like love making is entering your soul and your heart. and your on an all time high forever. because thats what love is suppose to be. im out……

  28. Great Assets says:

    I am glad Wale put that in perspective. it is hard for a female to decipher the difference. Yes, you are totally correct our generation basically f!@#s when our parents used to make out. I can’t speak for everybody but in my situation, I don’t have the time or the patience for the relationship and I am 23. So opt to f!@# if I am not in the mood for my toy. Maybe it is because i never been mad loved to.

  29. missecarelus says:

    dame!! can u marry me, so well put, but so many still don’t understand.

  30. RACHEL says:

    Wooowwww…ur beautiful descriptively put breakdown on love making was,and i think, carefully constructed to make everyone rethink THE VALUE of what they r doing in the bed. No matter what someone’s personal thoughts were on that subject,after reading all your articles, any subject u command a respect for u art or for better words ur way of thinking. I <3 IT….Its like ur so far out the box that this is no box. wish there were more liberated verbal minds out there as yourself…Keep it comming…:)

    [...] The Dating Scene Volume XIII: Making Love vs. F**king January 6, 2010 Lance Drummonds Leave a comment Go to comments So I was sent an article posted on a very very dope site, HoneyMag. It was an interview featuring Wale and the question was posed, “What’s the difference between love making and f**king?” I must say, Wale’s answer is ON POINT! I do believe there is a distinct difference between love making and f**king. To put it simply, the two parties have to be IN LOVE in order to make love. Whether they admit their “in love” state or not, the feelings are undeniable and will be evident in the focus, care, and passion involved in the sex. If the two are just F*$King, well then they are probably in a "temporary" situation where it is more of an agreement rather than a emotionally fulfilling experience.
