Because sex is sooooooooooo much more than just "sooooooooo good".
If you look at life on a very primitive, basic level, sex is the meaning of life (reproduction- furthering your genes into the next generation, etc.). So even just on a very basic, biological level, we all bow down to the idea of sex.
Take it into the twentieth centuries, where human emotion has evolved into complex realms beyond our wildest dreams, and sex takes on even deeper meaning. There's a reason people call it "making love", because that's part of what it is- it's connection with another human being, even if it's a one-night-stand that "completely doesn't matter" (you know you've heard people use that before, maybe you've used it yourself). There's no way for sex not to matter on a deeply emotional psychological level. If you try to ignore that it does, you're in complete denial. How could having somebody touch you on such a deeply personal level not matter? It matters, and it always will. It's that touch you can't get enough of, the love that's so pure there aren't words, something so violently passionate or so serenly delicate... it's beauty in every definition of the word, and nobody can get it out of their heads, these days. We think of it in the crudest terms, in our weakest moments, at our greatest triumphs... we think of it all of the time, because it's who we are, what we are, and what we need.
