Date GalSpeaking up about 'bad sex'
An interesting article passed my desk yesterday from News.Com that suggested the internet is credited for more and more people talking and viewing sex than ever before, however when it comes to real life relationships, we're not speaking up about our problems with getting jiggy in the bedroom.
This is a pretty fair call! Sure, there are more of us jumping online these days viewing porn, or chatting to potential partners which in some cases gets pretty down and dirty. It's like the internet has provided us a forum in which all people, shy or totally liberated can go on and experiment and be as open as possible about sex.
It's pretty easy to sit behind a computer screen and write to someone about your sexual fantasies but when it comes to real life confrontation, are we being as open and liberated?
This article suggests not and again, I think that it's spot on. Let's face it, we're not all going to have the most amazing sex like they do in the movies - it just doesn't work like that. With our lifestyles becoming more and more hectic... we are finding little time to jump in for some boudoir action or it may be the case, we're so tired and exhausted our libidos are out the window and we don't want sex. Then there's the lucky couples who have gorgeous children and it's really hard to find the time or energy to get down and dirty. Now they're time problems but what about the other little problems... perhaps to deal with men.
I was once confronted with the situation of somehow not being able to turn my man on... apparently it wasn't my fault, he had stage fright, but after several tries, it seemed the problem was a little more long term. The thing is we never talked about it - it was a non issue to him, but to me it stopped us having amazing sex or sex at all.
This is what the article is talking about... we no longer talk about problems with sex. We no longer speak up if the sex is bad. There's no communication in the bedroom and this is a major problem. Is that why more of us are turning to the internet to get our jollies? Communication is the key in any relationship and put time management aside, don't we all want to have amazing sex with the people we love???
Why do you think we're not talking up about sex? It's human nature right?
