“Sex with someone you love is the best prescription for good health. It keeps you young, keeps your sexual organs in good working order, and it boosts your self-confidence. Nothing else stimulates all the senses quite like sex. It just puts a glow on you that no other activity does.” – Dr. Ava Cadell.

I believe that regularly occurring and frequent sex will produce certain emotional and physical health benefits. It’s long been established that there are myriad of health benefits related to sexual activity. This awareness has been recorded in our culture for centuries in the form of old wives tales such as “Use it, or lose it.” Just as if you don’t use your common household appliances regularly, they’ll also become rusty and break down.

A consistently active sex life can be directly beneficial for the cardiovascular system, particularly for men. The increase in heart rate is directly beneficial to the circulation, and can reduce the likelihood of a heart attack. The British Medical Journal published an article in 1997 that reported that men who had the highest number of orgasms had a better quality of life and lived the longest.

Sexual activity can also regulate and exercise the respiratory organs. In short, that heavy breathing with someone you love is healthy. Sex benefits neck and back muscles which increases blood flow to the brain and can alleviate certain types of headache…so, the next time your partner says, “I’ve got a headache, ” you can say, “Good, let’s make love and get rid of it.”

In the post-coital phase of sex, the relaxation of muscles can even alleviate insomnia. The release of tension can lead to a deeper, quicker sleep.Believe it or not, sex can work as a laxative, toning and controlling the lower abdominal muscles.

Sex as pain medication may sound far fetched, but consider this: Just before the point of no return, high levels of oxytocin flood the body and release endorphins that relieve pain. Sexual activity can also help to relieve menstrual cramps by providing a natural decongestion.

No more flu or pesky colds is a good reason to have sex at least once or twice a week. That’s what research showed at Wilkes University in Pennsylvania. They discovered that people who had regular sex had 30% higher levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody which boosts the immune system.

If you think you’re overweight, there’s no better way to lose it than with increased sexual activity. It not only burns calories, but can also help turn fat into muscle more quickly than any other forms of exercise. Sex will burn a significant amount of calories but over eating will still cause weight gain. The most concise research shows that the act of sexual intercourse burns of about 200 calories, which is equal to running on a treadmill for half an hour.

Having sex keeps your organs healthy. Just as exercising the other muscles of your body contributes to your well being, sexual activity contributes to the flow of blood to your organs and helps to keep everything in good working condition from top to bottom.

There are also many wonderful psychological benefits. Sexual activity releases pleasure endorphins from the brain, which flood the body and literally de-stress it.

Sex can be an effective anti-depressant because it releases feel-good neurotransmitters from the brain called Dopamine. The physical and emotional aspect of sex can work together in improving self-esteem and adds to a sense of confidence.

Sex can help to get those creative juices flowing. Since sexual fulfillment also involves your brain, it can improve a variety of mental functions, including your concentration. Sex can make the mind more active and an imaginative approach to sex can not only spice up your love life, but it can create that wonderful feeling of sexual anticipation.

One of the most important psychological benefits of an active sex life is that it can reduce anxiety. The sedative effect of sexual activity is conducive to fighting the effects of daily tension. The emotional fulfillment that comes from an intimate sexual encounter results in the relaxation of your muscles in your brain.

Better sex life can improve your sense of smell because after lovemaking, prolactin, a hormone, flows to the brain and develops new neurons in the olfactory bulb, which is the brain’s smell center.The unique sense of intimate connection with the person you love cannot be duplicated by any other activity. Nothing else stimulates all the senses quite like sex.

There has been an enormous amount of research in the field of psychology focusing on the relationship between sexuality and mental health. Recent medical discoveries by the American Heart Association have confirmed the physical benefits of an active sex life. The American Association of Urologists and significant medical school studies at the University of California and Indiana, just to name two, have documented studies about the health aspects of an active sex life. Forbes magazine did a cover story on why sex is good for your health in 2003 with statistics from major universities and medical journals.

Let’s face it, sex is really an integral part of a healthy life and can help you emotionally, psychologically, and physically. In summation, sex is good for you health in terms of the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, menstrual cramps, acts as a laxative, burns calories, keeps your organs healthy, acts as an anti-depressant, a mild sedative, can stimulate creativity, concentration, reduce stress,…and it feels great!

The issue of whether schools should offer sex education to their students and how explicit these lessons should be has been a controversial one for decades. It always seems to initiate disputes. In 1994 Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders in the US, was fired for stating that it is essential that students be taught about masturbation as part of sex education. At that time Bill Clinton and his conservative Republicans had been leading the country, who felt strongly about shielding children from corrupt sex talk. Of course when Clinton’s own sexual life with Monika Lewinsky came flashing through headlines on newspapers, TV Channels and then on the Internet, nothing was hidden from anyone and with this, all sorts of sexual content became available for all (Irvine, 2002). The Internet has proved to be a major catalyst in the spreading of sexual material, primarily because of the lack of control over its content. Nowadays sexual content is manifested to children in numerous ways through the media, where magazines, books, television, movies and also songs exhibit sexual material. 

Today’s children are well exposed to sex talk. If it is not made available for them through refined sex education in schools, they will probably have to confront the vulgar and obscene facet of it elsewhere. Sexuality should be openly discussed since it determines so much in our lives. Children should be educated and prepared about the hormonal changes they will undergo in their years of adolescence and how they will experience unfamiliar emotions (Gale, 2005). With sex education, adolescents will better understand the reasons and causes of their fluctuating emotions and desires (Harrison, 2000). They will appreciate being trusted with the provided knowledge and more importantly, will be aware of the risks and the potential aftermath, which will result to them making healthier and more sagacious decisions regarding their sexuality.

SIECUS (Sexual Information and Education Council of the United States) which was founded in 1964 spent years struggling since people were unwilling to approach it. The foundation had been cofounded by Mary Calderone who had made it a goal of her life to get people to “say sex” (Irvine, 2002, p.17). “Open sexual discussion would foster socially responsible sexuality”, this is the principal the SIECUS foundation followed (Irvine, 2002). However, this was difficult since people hesitated. Many confuse sex education with lectures promoting abstinence. The foundation supported abstinence but at the same time believed in ‘sexual fulfillment for all’ (Irvine, 2002, p.18). It was not fond of traditional and religious limitations because of how it led to guilt and embarrassment of sexually active individuals. In the early sixties, sex education barely existed. It was said that the bathroom walls were more edifying then the books in those times. Books in the mid sixties had become a little less restrictive and now focused on dating and “appropriate gender role behavior” (Irvine, 2002). Some authors began to mention sexual pleasure in their books, intending to inform the youth, however avoided to discuss issues such as masturbation, premarital sex and homosexuality. Such issues would create controversy(Irvine, 2002). The youth of the country had been progressing in all other fields. They experimented with LSD, the protested against the Vietnam War and marched in civil rights demonstrations. The country was undergoing serious social changes and sex educators of the time put in tremendous effort to keep quiet about sex however they were incapable of holding back the sexual revolution that followed (Irvine, 2002).

Premarital sex no longer remained uncommon amongst the new and rebellious generation. The rate of unmarried pregnant women soared. Bitterness about the well-being of women began debates of whether sex education should be enhanced. Abortion, which was considered a major and one of the most prominent of crimes, was the only option for unmarried women (Irvine, 2002). It was not dealt with professionally thus lacked sanitation and proper technique and at times, could be fatal. The birth control pill had been introduced in 1960 but the youth remained ignorant because of the frail sex talk. Black pregnant women who were unmarried were considered burdens and white pregnant unmarried women were looked up as “species of the mental state”(Irvine, 2002). Gradually homosexuals overtly confronted the world, expressing their ‘queer’ sexuality and they were also looked down at. The nation began dividing into groups, people were not willing to understand one another instead many made an effort into showing themselves off as the ‘right kind’ by dressing conservatively. Slowly magazines such as Playboy and America’s first lesbian magazine were published(Irvine,  2002). The new generation had changed the face of ‘youth sexuality’ and the previous generation was forced to accept it. However, although the youth had changed concepts of sex, they remained unaware of the consequences such as STDs, the nerve wrecking stress of early pregnancy and sex addiction. It was vital for them to be educated for them to take control of their sexuality.

In the present world, Media has the most apparent influence in children and teenagers, from which they tend to mimic or reproduce what they see in magazines, television or what they hear in songs. Headings such as “What everyone is really doing in bed”, which was published Glamour June 2005, are customary. These are made to attract customers and usually target those who are not familiar with the content (Plante, 2006). Some would buy them for entertainment while others would use it as a source of education. The content of the article may or may not be reliable, it could be the truth or it could just be what appeals to buyers but such headings are enough to lure assailable minds. Advertisements also involve a level of sexuality. For example, the bare back of a woman is used to promote perfume. In movies all sort of sexual scenes are displayed. In songs, especially RnB and Rap, lyrics could get very detailed, sometimes vulgar. The Internet is said to be responsible for distributing 90% of the pornography available for everyone. According to the BBC Tech News 1% of the millions of links offered by Google and Yahoo Geocities lead to pornographic material.

After the increase of STDs, AIDs especially, institutes realized the importance of sex education while many conservatives believed that abstinence was the right option. Without education, children were being made ‘‘vulnerable to potentially deadly diseases’’ (Gale, 2005, p.10). The average child today is exposed to sexual imagery, from photos in magazines, visuals on TV, lyrics in songs and of course just their peers. With this, they are becoming sexually active at an earlier age and many are now caught in the viscous circles of STDs. In the year 2005, according to the Centers for Disease Control and the Kaiser Family Foundation, 65% of sexually transmitted infections are carried by people under the age of 24 (Gale, 2005). It is now being debated how much needs to be taught to students. The main concern seems to be the fast spreading STDs therefore many sex educators emphasize on the risks one takes when deciding to have sex and also contraception. Another serious problem is that adolescent tend to get very curious and have a desire to try things they have not before, therefore they usually seem to have a significant amount of interest in the subject of ‘sex’. They have a tendency to develop endless questions and if these questions are left unanswered, they will take action in order to solve the mysteries themselves. Also, they are rebellious and so telling them ‘just say no’ will not work.

Sexuality is innate and natural. Sex talk should not be taboo. It is in the human nature to desire sex after a certain age. In order to avoid awkwardness and discomfort it is best to learn about it and be educated about the procedure. Over the decades we have seen the consequences of not openly discussing the issue, imposing abstinence and not providing the youth with enough information. It is important for them to become aware of what is presented in their surroundings by the media and peers. It is essential for them to recognize their own sexuality, are they hetro/homosexual? They need to be familiar with the changes they would experience during the years of puberty and know why they react in certain ways to particular things. They need to be well aware of the potential consequences of engaging their selves sexually. It should be discussed with comfort to let them know that they are being trusted and are expected to act responsibly.

Amazon.com Review

Syphilis, alcoholism, infidelity, and indeterminate parentage may seem improbable touchstones in the back story of one who didn’t so much portray as embody the blithe Maria in The Sound of Music. But as this memoir of her formative years makes clear, there is more gravitas to Andrews than meets the eye. From her childhood in rural England and initial forays into British theater, to her first massive successes on Broadway and in the West End–notably as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady–Home puts her celebrated career in context. While arguably offering more detail about the Andrews family than necessary, it nevertheless dishes wonderful anecdotes about legends and Andrews contemporaries like Noël Coward, Rex Harrison, Robert Goulet, Richard Burton, and Rodgers and Hammerstein, in prose as crisp and immaculate as the author herself. It also offers a revealing look into the intricate, exhaustive craft of performing–skills often taken for granted in tabl (more…)

Teenagers and sex is one issue all parents have to face sooner or later.

But when is the right time to raise the subject of teenagers and sex and who should do it.

If you’re beginning to have concerns about your teenager and sex, here are a few pointers.

Teenagers & Sex – is Your Teen Thinking About Sex

Many of us prefer to pretend our teens are not thinking about sex, but you were a teen once yourself, and at what age did you become interested in sex?

The same questions, fascinations, fantasies and myths that you experienced, you can be sure your teen is going through the same thing.

Whether your teen is sexually active or just thinking about it, sex should not be a taboo subject in your home but something your teen can come to you and talk about if he or she needs honest advice.

What is the Right Age to Talk about Sex?

There is no right age to talk about sex.

The subject of sex should be something of an ongoing conversation and if you child is old enough to ask, then generally they are old enough to know.

This does not mean you have a sexually explicit conversation with your three year old about where babies come from, it means you answer the question on his or her level of understanding knowing that as time progresses you can expand on the details as is appropriate.

When it comes to teenagers and sex there is the question of how much do they know and how much do they need to know versus what you want them to know.

In reality, there are just too many places for your teen to get information about sex including the misguided and often incorrect revelations they will pick up from their friends.

So ask yourself the question.

Would you rather your teen thinking they are unable to become pregnant on their first sexual experience, or would you prefer to make talking about teenagers and sex something that is natural for both you and your teen?

Teenagers & Sex – Things to Discuss with your Teen

The subject of teenagers and sex can be equally embarrassing for teen and parent, but it doesn’t have to be so.

The main thing is to not make a big issue of it and make it a topic that your teen feels comfortable discussing with you.

Teenagers and Sex – Things You Should Talk to Your Teen About

• Everybody’s Having Sex Except Me.

Teenage boys and girls often feel under pressure to become sexually active because they believe their friends are.

Talk to your teenager about the intimacy of a sexual relationship and the importance of sharing it with someone special, especially the first time.

• Alcohol and Drugs

Warn your teens about the dangers of alcohol and drugs. Make them aware that if they are under the influence of either it will affect their ability to think clearly making it easier for people to force them into comprising situations.

• Unprotected Sex

Make sure your teen is clear that the only guaranteed way to prevent pregnancy or getting a sexually transmitted disease is abstinence.

Impress upon your teen the importance of practicing safe sex and the need to always make use of a condom.

Your teen needs to know that having unprotected sex just once can lead to pregnancy, genital herpes, genital warts, HIV and AIDS none of which can be cured.

• What Constitutes ‘Real Sex’

Ensure that your teen knows that oral sex and anal sex is real sex and subject to the same risks as penetrative sex.

Teenagers & Sex – Talking About it and How

Teenagers and sex is not a subject you should seek to avoid but one you should discuss with your teenager and be relieved that they feel able to come to you and talk about it.

Do all you can to continually improve your teens confidence and raise their self esteem as this will be the best defense in their ability to not give in to peer pressure.

Equip your teenager with the correct information. This will empower them making it impossible for others to try an undermine them.

Your teen will have their own opinions on teenagers and sex and with the right guidance from you no one will be able to force them to become sexually active before they are ready to do so.
