Our sexuality is part of our lives just as is eating and sleeping. Sexuality is a very important part of our well-being. In a healthy romantic relationship, sexuality is as vital as love and affection.
Men like women, have bad s#x all the time. But none ever wants to talk about it. Most will pretend just to keep their partners happy. Having bad s#x just isn’t an option anymore.
But do people ever have the courage to say exactly what they want from their partners?
According to the 29-year-old actress Shailene Woodley, she admitted she has had bad s#x ‘more than once’ in her life.
Recently, Shailene was asked this question for a column for men’s website: ‘If the s#x is not great but the relationship is thriving, do you call it quits or work on it?’
And she answered:
‘Oh … I have been here. And to be quite honest, it has happened more than once in my life.’
Shailene Woodley continued:
‘Bad s#x is simply two people who haven’t quite found the language that speaks to their unique lives together yet. Or, two people who don’t know how to be deeply vulnerable with one another. That s*** can take time.
And although you occasionally and very rarely do meet someone whom you spontaneously sexually combust with – most of the time, s#x is a lesson in true intimacy.’
Shailene concluded her advice by urging people to ‘explore the roots of emotions’ with their partners and to take things slow.
Shailene Woodley finally added ; the key to good s#x is ‘communication.’
Bad sex seems a too strong expression to describe unenjoyable sex which to me is what we are talking about here.
In any case the management of such issues as unenjoyable sex is complex and merits real reflection.
There can be no universal solution to it since it is subjective to each sexual episode.
