Sorry you tried it. But did not you feel much more relaxed after it?
Yes, I did feel a tad more relaxed. However, it took so much effort, and many hours, getting my partners to co-operate in the first place that it wasn't really worth it in the end. Hence the reason I feel that your suggestion is very misleading.

Sex in most cases is the physical act with penetration, but that doesn't necessarily it's always like that. Some people claim it is fundamentally a spiritual bond.. and I have heard that some people say they had sex barely even touching eachother! In this way, if the carnal part of sex wasn't satisfying or wasn't suitable for you, maybe you should try the alternatives.
In the end, sex can cool you down.
