They're talking about how religions like Christianity make sex a "shameful" act that should never be enjoyed outside of anything but institutional marriage, even though it's completely natural to desire consensual sex for myriad reasons.

The fact that humans can recognize the biological motivations of sexuality and its various purposes (pleasure, connection, procreation) doesn't make sex stupid, silly, or somehow undignified. Religious institutions try hard to make anything sexual a sin in order to shame adherents into not having sex because "only God can grant you that joy and only within marriage, anything else sends you straight to hell."
