Why people want a physical relationship is an interesting insight into what sex can be. It can be fun, a form of stress release or most interestingly, for practice. As Imperial students, we know that practice makes perfect. Unfortunately, many of the respondents entered an agreement with emotion, which FWB is definitely not designed for.
