Not be able to orgasm
- Eating is a necessity multiple times a day; without taste and smell, every single meal becomes a joyless, purely mechanical act
- Smell and taste are tied to memory, emotional wellbeing, and detecting danger—affecting far more of daily life than sex alone
- Sex remains physically intimate and emotionally connecting even without reaching climax
- Losing both taste and smell together can cause serious psychological distress and disorientation that pervades everyday life
