Your mom may have explained the basics about the birds and bees, but she most likely left out some of the finer details, and if you don’t know the in’s and out’s around the dating field, you’re only swinging with half a bat. Today, I’d like to share with you some of the important, lesser-known facts about sex.
1. Sex is Only as Important as Your Lover is Good
Couples that claim they are unsatisfied with their sex life, rate sex as being 90 percent of their relationship’s total happiness, versus satisfied couples, who only rate sex as having 10 percent importance. In other words, the better your lover is, the less important sex will become on your list of important needs. If you really want to keep your partner away from the shady side of infidelity, your most effective form of kryptonite is to make sure they’re satisfied, both in and out of the sack.
2. Cheaters Are Boring in Bed
Cheaters complain the reason they stray from the apple tree, is because their partner is boring and no longer interested in sex. What studies actually show, however, is cheaters are too busy (and sometimes too lazy) to have sex, and would rather get a few extra minutes of sleep. Despite this pessimistic attitude, the majority of cheaters claim if only their partner would try harder things might turn around. So, let’s get this straight. Most cheaters are withholding sex because they are too busy or lack the effort, yet it is up to their partner to improve things. I say, let the other person have them!
3. The Most Powerful People in the World Really Want to Be Dominated
In general, men tend to fantasize about submissive women, and women about passionate/dominant men. However, the more powerful the person is in real life, the more they will crave being dominated in the bedroom. Sex is most fun when both partners feel safe, but if you really want to rock the boat of that entrepreneur in your life, tie them to a bedpost and have your way with them!
4. Public Sex is Exciting Only Because it Cheats the System
According to studies, the reason that 20 percent of Americans are seeking refuge outside the bedroom to get their jollies, is it decreases the necessity of foreplay. It turns out, the fear factor of getting caught, simulates the feeling of sexual excitement, which means the act of running out to an abandoned dumpster, is practically as exciting as 10 minutes with ice cubes and a gifted tongue. The only problem with cheating the system, is most people find it ultimately disappointing when it’s all over, considering its quick nature, minimal pleasure, and lack of cuddle time.
5. Sex Makes You Smarter
Here is something you probably never learned in school, but wish you had. A recent study at Princeton University, suggests that regular sexual activity may actually aid in brain cell growth and synaptic connections. This theoretically makes sexually active people slightly smarter than their virgin counterparts. In addition, the sex also appears to decrease the production of stress hormones, making the body less anxious, and more likely to live a long and healthy life. Some people may tell you to stay in school. I say, stay in bed!
6. Sex With The Ex
Have you ever had a sex dream staring you and your ex, even though you were happily engaged in another relationship? Did it mean you were secretly yearning for your lost love? According to research, all it means for women, is they are probably nearing their ovulation cycle of the month. Nobody knows exactly why, but women who have a long history with an ex, are prone to having sexual dreams about them. When their cycle is over, they will go back to their normal dreams. Should this be a cause for concern? No, or at least not unless she actually starts to look forward to that time of the month.
7. Thursday For Hump Day!
A lot of research has looked at the different days of the week, asking when is the best time for sex. It turns out that the day both men and women are at their sexual peak is not the traditional hump day (Wednesday), Friday, or Saturday, but rather Thursday. Researchers claim, both men and women develop synchronized hormone levels during this particular day of the week. In laymen terms, this means they both have sex on the brain. With this in mind, I hereby nominate Thursday as Urb’s official Hump Day!
