ABSTRACT
The uncanny similarity in descriptions helped us to become reasonably certain that everyone was talking about the same experience. In essence, the components of magnificent sex represent the view from the top of a mountain. The first major ingredient or component of magnificent sex is the feeling of being completely present, immersed and absorbed in the moment as it unfolds. This feeling of being utterly engrossed was frequently cited as the major difference between great sex and merely average or even very good sex. Some people had had magnificent sex with many partners; others had had magnificent sex with only a few. Some expressed doubt that they would ever be able to have extraordinary sex with anyone but their long-term partners. This component of magnificent sex is characterized by deep feelings of mutual respect and trust for their partners.
