Good sex comes from understanding how your body works. Everyone likes different things when it comes to sex, so don’t worry about whether you’re “normal at Sex and Pleasure.”

- masturbating alone or with a partner

- kissing at Sex and Pleasure
- rubbing your bodies together
- using sex toys

People get turned on by different things, so communicating about what you like or don’t like lets your partner know what’s OK and what’s off limits at Sex and Pleasure.
Is sex good for you?
Having a healthy sex life is good for you both emotionally and physically. Sex can help you create a connection with another person, and sexual pleasure has lots of health benefits — whether you’re with a partner or not. When you have an orgasm, your body gives you a natural high. You release endorphins, which are hormones that block pain and make you feel good.
There are lots of other health benefits associated with sexual pleasure at Sex and Pleasure:
- better general health
- better sleep
- better self-esteem
- better fitness
- less stress and tension
- a longer life
How often do people have sex?
There’s no amount of sex that’s considered “normal” — everyone’s different. How often you have sex depends on a lot of things, like whether you have a partner, what else is going on in your life, and how strong your sex drive (your desire to have sex) is at Sex and Pleasure.
Everybody has a distinct sex drive. Stress, the medications you take, and other physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors can all have an impact on your personal sex drive. Some people rarely want to have sex, while others desire it frequently or more than once a day. At Sex and Pleasure, those who don’t feel sexual desire toward anyone can identify as asexual.
How can I have a healthy sex life?
Having a healthy sex life is about taking care of yourself, whether you have a partner or not. Physically, that means practicing safer sex, getting tested for STDs regularly, preventing unintended pregnancies, and seeing a doctor or nurse if you have a sexual disorder or any other health problems at Sex and Pleasure.
Feeling good about your body, enjoying sexual pleasure, being comfortable with your sexual orientation and gender identity, and having healthy relationships are also big parts of healthy sexuality. Having a healthy sex life means knowing what you do and don’t want to do sexually and being able to communicate that to your partners. Your partner should respect your boundaries, and you should respect theirs at Sex and Pleasure.
