Why repressing your sexual urges is wrong

Despite the huge sexual revolution that occurred in the west in the past 60 years large numbers of us still work hard to suppress our sexual desires. Sex is one of the most natural functions of human biology. To suppress it is to invite chaos and disorder into society. You only need to look at the state of countries with gender and sexual repression laws to see how bad things can get.

Who’s responsible for this?
At first people point the finger of blame at religious sensibilities but as we now live in a more secular society that claim becomes more and more unreliable. Religion might bear some of the responsibility for the unhealthy suppression of sexual desire but you can’t blame it entirely. Society has a lot more to answer for.

Am I sexually repressed?
The fact that you’re on the F-Buddy site might answer your question better then anything else. Looking for a casual hook up can be hugely beneficial to your sexual health if you have gone without for an extended period of time.

The power of great sex
Having a healthy sexual relationship improves our self esteem and general outlook on life. The National Geographic Channel aired a documentary in 2013 revealing that men who have a regular and steady sex life are likely to increase their lifespan by as much as 50%. Women who have a regular and steady sex life are likely to increase their lifespan too but the emphasis is more on quality rather then quantity. Basically the better the sex the longer you live. It’s biology.

It’s hard to talk about sex
Despite all the facts and statistics we still find it hard to talk about sex. Even in modern western society it is still considered a taboo subject to discuss in public despite the media onslaught of sexual imagery and enticement. Women are still branded ‘sluts’ in some social circles if they reveal they enjoy casual relationships whereas men are regarded as ‘heroes’ or just ‘being men’. Both assumptions are cruel, inaccurate and outdated.

What to do
You’re here because you’re interested in having sex. You should be comfortable with that acknowledgement. If you’re not then you need to take a long hard look at yourself and what you want. Great sex is one of the best things about humanity. It should be celebrated not hushed up.
