Do you ever find yourself wondering if your sex life is normal? Do you equate frequency with normalcy? Do you compare your sex life with your friends? If yes dont worry you are not alone! A lot us sometimes fret needlessly about our sex-lives and sex-drives, thanks to the numerous myths about sex. The following are some of the most common ones;
Myth- Going straight to Sleep after a romantic dinner is not normal.
Fact- It is in fact perfectly normal to want to sleep after a fulfilling meal. Good food can in fact kill your sex-drive and make you sleepy. Its actually better to have sex before you set out for a romantic meal!
Myth- Its not normal if you (women) dont have an orgasm during intercourse.
Fact- Whats more important than an orgasm is how much pleasure you give each other? You may have enjoyed the fore-play but may still not have an orgasm, dont worry, its normal! In fact according to some recent research stu dies most women dont have an orgasm during intercourse, but it doesnt mean they dont enjoy it!
Myth- Men always want sex.
Fact- Completely untrue! Just like women men may not always be in the mood to have sex. In fact this myth is responsible for mens performance anxiety and sometimes erection trouble as well. Its because men believe that its normal to always want sex and they worry about their being normal, when they dont want sex!
Myth- Its not normal to be interested in sex after a certain age.
Fact- False again! Its biologically and psychologically normal to be interested in sex till the end of your life!
Myth: Its normal for women to lose their sex-drive after menopause.
Fact- The truth is far from it! Many women actually enjoy sex more after menopause since they no longer have to worry about getting pregnant. Also thanks to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) many women arent plagued with the l ow sex drive and vaginal dryness often associated with menopause.
Myth- You must have sex at least 3 times a week.
Fact- As long as you are both satisfied with the frequency, even if you have sex once in two weeks, its normal! Dont put too much stress on quantity as long as you are both happy with your sex life. If you are not then you will have to talk it out with your partner and figure out the reason for his/her lack of interest.
Finally, good sex is what makes you and your partner happy, everything else is a myth!
