How to Increase Sex Drive in Men

Image
Although popular culture tells us that men are obsessed with sex, about 20% have almost no interest in it, and about 30% of women say that they have a higher sex drive than their significant other.  The cause can be psychological, physical, or medical. Sex drive can be increased in a variety of ways. Enjoy erotica together.  Watching porn or reading erotica with your partner can be a good way to get both parties aroused. Just as importantly, it exposes both parties to new fantasies that they can peruse together. ·          Conversely, watching porn habitually by oneself can desensitize a man to sex, reducing sex drive. Discuss fantasies.  Ask your partner if there is anything he wants to try, but hasn’t. If he says there is nothing, ask for at least one new thing to try. ·          If you are afraid to raise the subject directly, begin with indirect hints. "What did you think of the scene in that movie we watched? Would you ever try that?" ·          Be ca

How to Get Tested for STDs

Image
Scared or ashamed about a recent change "down there?" Trying to get a handle on your sexual health?  Don't worry  — STD tests are quick, easy, and common. While not every change in your genitals is caused by an STD, knowing how to get tested will give you peace of mind (and, if needed, help you get the proper treatment as quickly as possible). Make an appointment with your family doctor.  One great "first stop" for STD treatment is your ordinary doctor that you see for your regular checkups. Your doctor should be more than willing to help you get the tests you need. Doctors are not allowed to judge you or tease you about your issues. If you are older than 13, most doctors will also agree to treat you without telling your parents the real reason for your visit. However, this depends on which state you live in. [1] ·          This can be a subject that is difficult to talk to others about. Luckily, you do not need to explain a single thing on the ph

Masturbation happens in every culture, across every period of history, and it's the way most adolescents discover what they enjoy before embarking on adult sexual relationships.

How to Support Your Asexual Partner

Talking with Your Partner - Have a discussion.  Your partner may tell you they are asexual, or you may figure it out on your own in the relationship. If you’re upset with the level of sexual intimacy or affection in your relationship, it’s best to talk about it together and have a clear understanding of each other’s needs and desires. ·          It can be difficult to start this kind of conversation. You can say, “I’ve noticed that we approach sex and affection differently, and it would be helpful to talk about it. It seems like I desire sex more than you do. What do you think?” ·          Be gentle in your approach without making accusations or casting blame. Say, “This is something I know is affecting both of us, which is why it feels important to discuss.” ·          If you don't know anything about asexuality, that's fine!

Everyone dreams of clear skin free of breakouts, inflammation, and dark spots. Whether you've always suffered from acne and large pores, or can't seem to conquer the redness of rosacea, these steps will lead you to smooth and supple skin. From methods for you to try yourself at home, to issues that need professional attention, these steps will get you on the path of healthy looking skin. Cleansing your skin accurately is one of the most surefire methods to receive a clear, radiant tone.  However, if you aren’t doing this correctly, you could be doing more harm than good. For instance, lukewarm water, rather than hot, is sufficient for entering the pore and rinsing away dirt and oil. Scrubbing too hard can exacerbate oil production and break down collagen, leaving you with an oily face and fine lines. Make sure to take your skin type into account when choosing a cleanser. If you are acne prone, choose a soap that is alcohol-free and has an acne fighting ingredient li

How to Solve Relationship Problems

Schedule time to just talk. When problems start, communication often breaks down and you may notice that you and your partner do not talk as much as you used to. To start improving your communication again, try making little appointments to chat about little things. • For example, you could set aside 15 minutes per morning to sit and tell each other about your plans for the day. Or, you could give your partner a call on his or her lunch break to check in and see how your partner’s day is going. • Scheduling time to talk about relationship problems can be useful as well. By setting a time limit for discussing your problem, you may reduce some of the tension in your relationship and get closer to a solution. For example, you could decide to discuss a specific problem from 7-8pm. • Keep these conversations as light as possible and avoid discussing anything that might upset your partner during this time. The goal is to get a rapport going again. Of course, if your p
