May Day, May Day! Science Says Sex Is Healthy!

May 02 07:10am

Guess what? Sex is good for our relationships!

"Glamour" magazine's current issue cites new research by Dr. Stuart Brody of the University of Paisley, Scotland, who has authored over 120 scholarly articles on many psychological topics. In several recent studies published in such scholarly journals as "Sexual Relationship Therapy" and "Sex & Marital Therapy," Brody has discovered a positive link between vaginal orgasm and overall psychological health, as well as women experiencing more healthy or satisfying relationships and more frequent intercourse with their partner.

Of course, it makes sense that the more sex we have with our partners, the more healthy and satisfying our relationships will be, but to discover that scientific studies show this to be true seems to suggest we get crackin'! So forget the long list of excuses for why you're not having sex: you'll always be busy, tired, and find it difficult to get aroused. And there will always be something more practical you can do with your time. But instead of dwelling on reasons not to get frisky, jump into it!

I heard that when a woman has an orgasm, the person that made her reach it, she gets a stronger emotional attachment to the person

How do you treat drying out when you are having sexual relations? What steps can you take or what can use to prevent from getting dry when you have sexual intercourse.

Sex won't necessarily make unhappy people happier -- or unhealthy people healthier, but I do think if you're happier, you're more likely to be healthier. So here's to being happier and healthier. And carve out more time for physical love. Sexually satisfied people also live longer, you know.
