In this post, we cover some misconceptions about sex and sex positivity.
Misconceptions About Sex
1. With a condom you don’t feel pleasure
This myth is false. It is one of the most used affirmations in young people, however, sexual pleasure does not depend on the condom, although the sensation may not be the same, by using a condom you protect yourself and avoid acquiring sexually transmitted diseases.
2. The morning after pill is a method to plan
False, the morning after pill is an emergency method for unprotected sexual intercourse, but it should not be used as a permanent contraceptive since it contains a high hormonal load. If used repeatedly, it can stop working.
3. After the age of 50, there is no more sexual desire
False, sexual desire depends on different factors such as biological ones: related to people’s health status, life processes or the characteristics of their body; psychological: here it is taken into account how the person has lived their sexuality, how their life and body have been; and finally the sociocultural aspects, since the environment influences the subjects’ vision of sexual development. Regardless of age, men and women must be able to express their sexual desires without any impediment.
4. Drinking alcohol or getting drunk guarantees better sex
This myth is false, it can even make arousal and orgasm difficult. In addition, if this consumption is chronic, it is likely to cause other effects, one of which is that it prevents conscious decision-making, such as condom use.
5. With the number of birth control methods out there, women get pregnant because they want to
This myth is false. There can still be an issue with a lack of accessibility to contraception and no method is 100% effective, especially when used improperly.
6. Men feel more sexual desire than women
Fake. It has been proven that there is no greater sexual desire in women or men, but what is certain is that, culturally, the masculine gender has been able to express itself without any repression, contrary to how women speak openly about his sexuality. It is essential to change these micromachisms to achieve equality between the sexes.
7. Vasectomy and tubal ligation cause impotence and frigidity
It is a false myth. A vasectomy doesn’t damage blood vessels. Keep in mind, there may still be hormonal changes.
8. Masturbating is bad for your health and can cause infertility.
Fake. It is a natural practice of humans to get to know, explore and satisfy their sexual desire. There is no scientific research to show that this practice produces physical or psychological illnesses.
9. Penis size matters
It is a false myth. The fact that a penis measures more or less centimeters is not relevant for pleasure, since the erotic points in the vagina are not found in very deep places.
