Sex without intention of reproducing is a sin right? What about infertile people? Can they not have sex since they are infertile?

They are free to make love if they are heterosexual and married to the person they are having relations with.What about infertile people?
Nope, that’s a misunderstanding of Catholic teaching.Can they not have sex since they are infertile?

No, Emily, it isn’t.Sex without intention of reproducing is a sin right?
Each act of marital intercourse must be ordered to procreation and unity. It does not have to result in conception. As long as the couple engages in the act as God designed it, they do nothing immoral.
No. They can marry. They can be intimate with their spouse. Same as those of us past menopause.What about infertile people? Can they not have sex since they are infertile?

For perspective, sex is often called “the marital act” by Catholics, not the fertile act.

It’s not a sin to have sex for pleasure. The Song of Solomon talks about it in great detail. If it were dirty and unclean, the Lord would have said so. God designed sex to be pleasurable (provided that it’s kept within the context of a marriage). I would encourage a married couple to have an active sex life.

If the married couple engage in intercourse in a way which does not impede the conception of an infant then they are not commiting any sin.
