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.

Egyptian Lawyer jailed for saying women in ripped jeans should be raped

An Egyptian lawyer has been sentenced to three years in prison for saying that women who wear ripped jeans should be raped in punishment. The lawyer made the remarks on a TV panel show in October, during a debate on a draft law on prostitution. "Are you happy when you see a girl walking down the street with half of her behind showing?" he said. He added: "I say that when a girl walks about like that, it is a patriotic duty to sexually harass her and a national duty to rape her." Mr Wahsh said that women who wore revealing clothing were "inviting men to harass them", and said "protecting morals is more important than protecting borders". The prosecutor brought charges against Mr Wahsh after a public outcry. The National Council for Women's Rights condemned the remarks, saying they were a "flagrant call" for rape, in violation of "everything in the Egyptian constitution". The council has now filed a complaint about th...

Fani kayode in support of corruption.

Fani – Kayode’s statement =“I have just spoken to Colonel Kayode Are, the former D-G of SSS during President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration and the former Acting National Security Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan and I am deeply concerned. He told me that his house is under siege and that gunshots are being fired at him and his family as we were speaking. “I am not sure what the issue is about but a situation where security men go to the home of a respected patriot like that and start shooting at him and his family for whatever reason is unacceptable and extremely dangerous. When you consider what is happening in Are’s home and marry with the shameful manner in which Colonel Sambo Dasuki, Chief Raymond Dokpesi, Governor Attahiru Bafawara, Alhaji Bashir Yuguda, Nnamdi Kanu, Godswill Orubebe, Bukola Saraki, Sule Lamido and others are being persecuted, threatened and demonised by the Federal Government it is clear that we are now in a police s...
