Things that can scuttle good sex

Things that can scuttle good
sex

The brain is the body’s most important
sex organ. This well known phrase bears
more than a little truth. Functional sex
organs, appropriate hormone levels, and
the ability to become sexually aroused
alone do not guarantee good sex. Other
factors such as brain factors can get in
the way. These include:
Relationship issues
Tension and emotional distance can
undermine a couple’s sex life. Conflicts
even when it has nothing to do with sex,
like finances or child-raising issues, can
be at the root of a sexual problem. A
sexual issue also can strain a couple’s
ability to get along.
Performance anxiety
When either the man or woman becomes
so worried about sexual performance,
then, sex is not enjoyable, or even
possible. Performance anxiety becomes
more common for both men and women
as they move into their 50s.
Body image and self-esteem
A lot of things could make a person feel
less sexy. Gravity is not kind to the body
as it ages. Childbirth, poor diet, weight
gain, or thinning hair can also leave a
person feeling less than desirable. Such
feelings can get in the way of a sense of
closeness or inspired lovemaking. It can
inhibit a person from initiating or
responding to sexual advances.
Expectations and past experiences
Your sexuality is a natural drive that is
with you from birth, but your family,
culture, religious background, the media,
and your peers shape your attitudes
toward sex. For some people, this history
supports a healthy enjoyment of sex. For
others, it complicates sexual relationships.
Stress and lifestyle changes
Stress and fatigue can quickly sap your
sex drive. Stress can hit from any
direction; challenging children, financial
worries, aging parents, health concerns,
career woes, and more. An overload of
competing demands may keep you and
your partner from nurturing your
relationship, sexual and otherwise.

NEWBURGH, N.Y. (AP) — Two boys trapped in a snow pile for about seven hours after a plow buried them could hear their worried family's cries but couldn't respond loudly enough to be heard, they said Friday. Police credited an air pocket with saving their lives. The two cousins, 11-year-old Elijah Martinez and 9-year-old Jason Rivera, were building a snow fort Wednesday night across the street from Elijah's apartment in Newburgh when a plow operator clearing a parking lot unknowingly pushed snow over them. Buried in about 5 feet of snow, they could barely move and couldn't breathe very well, so they could do nothing as they heard the anguished cries nearby. Jason lost his gloves. His hat flew off. They relied on each other to stay alive, they said, sharing Elijah's face mask to try and keep their hands warm and talking to each other so they wouldn't fall asleep. "I felt so tired. It didn't feel real that they were coming to get u...

Ebiripo: one of the best Ijebu Food

In spite of the fact that most of the Ijebu foods are tuber-related such as Ikokore, Ojojo, Ebiripo etc, the process of cooking these tuber varieties with special sauces makes them nutritionally rich and appropriate for all occasions. Ebiripo is a typical Ijebu cocoyam meal that can be cooked in various ways and spiced up to make a balanced diet.
