Oral sex can be foreplay or it can be a pleasurable and satisfying sexual experience by itself. But is it safe? The fact is that oral sex is not without some risk of sexually transmitted disease (STD). To read more...

Sexual
Health
Sexual
Health is an
important factor in an individual's daily
life, and resolving sexual dysfunction
is critical to one's wellbeing. Sexual
health is far too often overlooked and
sexual dysfunction ignored, either because
of ignorance of the facts about sexual
dysfunction, or because of anxiety about
discussing sexual health problems with
others. Male Impotence, also called Erectile
Dysfunction, or ED, is one of the sexual
health issues that most often is experienced
by men. Most men experience some form
of impotence during their lives, even
if only briefly, and oftenit is related
to other concerns such as stress at work
or at home, insufficient rest and sleep,
or poor diet.
Sexual
health receives
far too little attention in the health
care industry. Societal attitudes about
sexual dysfunction also influence this
situation, because for a man to admit
to impotence or erectile dysfunction can
result in ridicule by friends or co-workers.
It is very unfortunate that such a fundamental
topic of personal importance is so often
overlooked or not taken seriously. The
result is that sexual health issues are
inadequately examined in school curriculums
and glossed over by the media. Poor sexual
health coupled with sexual dysfunction
can result in low self-esteem, suicidal
feelings, inability to experience satisfying
sex with a partner, depression, and many
other conditions.

Sexual
Dysfunction
Sexual
dysfunction
is another issue of great importance to
people's sexual health, and includes such
issues as frigidity in women, and impotence
in men. Impotence is especially serious
for men because of the importance our
culture places on male performance. Women
seldom experience the same sort of concern,
because a woman and her friends will usually
place the sexual dysfunction blame on
the man's poor lovemaking skills as the
reason for her inability to get aroused
or for her lack of desire.
Impotence,
erectile
dysfunction, frigidity, are all symptoms
of our culture's failure to adequately
address these issues, both in women and
men. In most cases, these conditions can
easily be resolved through better attention
to diet, better understanding of human
anatomy, and an appreciation of human
needs.

CONDOMS
& STDs
Condoms
break or will fall off at a rate of about
2% to 6%, and a condom can break even
if it is used perfectly correctly. In
fact, one in three people who become AIDS
victims will contract the disease from
an infected partner even if the use of
condoms were 100% during all sexual encounters.
Spermicides can actually increase the
risk of contracting AIDS, because the
chemicals used in spemicides can irritate
the vagina walls, which facilitates infection.
As a result of this, spermicides are no
longer being recommended as a means of
HIV prevention.
