With the advent of the sex positivity movement more people are starting to open up about sex helps them live a more fulfilling life and this can only be a good thing for going forwards.
For those who love gay sex and engage in sensible safe sex practices then read on so see how sex can boost our health and happiness.
Positivity & Gay Sex
Sex can be quite an ambiguous term, for some it has to include penetrative sex, for others it can include a whole range of things in addition or instead of penetrative sex. Mutual masturbation or engaging in fetish scenarios are examples where some might call it sex, and some might not. In the real world it really doesn’t matter whether it is penetration you are looking for, being spanked or just giving someone a great blow job, they can all be equally sexually satisfying as being banged! The positivity and inclusivity of all sexual practices, providing they are legal and consensual, are to be celebrated!
Health Benefits of Great Sex
Having a happy sex life, means having a happier life, this should be obvious to many, but did you know there are also many recognised health benefits from having great sex? Here are just a few:
Lower Prostate Cancer Risk – There is some evidence from the USA to suggest that men who ejaculate more, have a lower risk of prostate cancer, that is a reduction method we can all decide to try!
Increased Sleep Quality – Now we all know that we feel sleeps after a great sex session, but did you know that there were actual medical studies done to demonstrate this in a scientific level! Having an orgasm right before bed, increases the release of oxytocin, and a range of other endorphins which acts as a natural sedative, reducing the time needed to fall asleep and giving us better sleep when we are down.
Increased Exercise Reduces Cardio Diseases – Sex is a great workout and for men who have sex a few times a week, as opposed to those who only have sex a few times a month, they have a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Lower Risk or Erectile Dysfunction – As men get older maintaining an erection can become more difficult with some men suffering from ED. For those men who have sex at least once a week, their chances of being unable to get it up when required were significantly reduced. Practice makes perfect and using the muscles in your penis will keep them healthier for longer!
Stress Reduction – Psychological well-being is helped along by regular satisfying sex. Mood boosting hormones and even the physical touch of another person reduces stress and releases tension from the body.
