* In ''Fanfic/{{Luminosity}}'', when Edward (who has tasted human blood) is trying to explain to Bella (who has not) just how ''amazingly delicious'' human blood is that {{Vegetarian Vampire}}s are so rare, he tells her that before their wedding, he asked his brothers what to expect of the honeymoon, and they said that sex enhanced by vampiric senses was the ''second'' best thing they'd ever experienced. Edward, for his part, disagrees, but mentions for the sake of honesty that he might have felt otherwise if he had tasted Bella's blood before she turned.

* The so-called "Better Than Sex" cake. There are a variety of recipes in making that cake, but the constant ingredients are chocolate cake mix that is moist to the center, and topped with whipped cream. A variety of ingredients make the cake OrgasmicallyDelicious.
* Skydivers [[http://www.skydivecarolina.com/about/articles/why-skydiving-is-better-than-sex/ often describe the free fall]] as "better than sex". Justified, since facing such situation releases an immense adrenaline rush and a rush of endorphines. Combined to the feeling of weightlessness and sense of flying, many actually ''do'' feel that way. [[spoiler: Many skydivers are either singles or married to each other, and drop zones are singles' scenes.]]

* Jack from ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines'' describes drinking blood as better than having sex and taking drugs, although [[TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade in that world]] they require roundabout methods for the second (they have to drink the blood of someone ''on'' the drug, which requires feeding).
