"sex trade" is one of the bi Why Is Sex A Four Letter Word?One reason why sex is still such ataboo subject that can hardly ever be discussed with a straight face, is thatthere is so much hypocrisy.The "sex trade" is one of the biggest revenue producers, both online and off.Yet hardly anyone will admit to beinga part of it.Please, don't get me wrong, there are different aspects to the sex discussion that I am talking about.The perverts and pornographers who involve children in what is supposed to be an adult and consensual act, deserve the comtempt and harsh treatment they receive.Both from society and the penal system!But my amazement is that healthy, "normal" adults become stammering, head bowing, face avertingindivuduals when the topic of sex comes up.These "grown ups" know that sex is part of being an adult and a natural part at that, yet if and when there is aproblem, they are hesitant and timid about seeking help.In my experience, even some Doctors areless than helpful when asked sex related questions.No wonder that stastics show that teenage and other unwanted pregnancies are not going down as fast as they should, even given all the information that is supposed to be readily available.Information by itself does no good, it must be explained and make sense, beforeit will serve its desired purpose.Telling someone to use a condom, for instance, without telling them why, how it works and how to properly use it, will not help them make an informed andself-protecting decision.When someone who enjoys an active sex life starts to lose interest,shouldn't it be treated the same as if they were no longer interested in eating?I know that you can live without enjoying sex, but why.Certainly not because you are too afraidor ashamed to be seen as a "pervert"So, please everyone, lets get real!Everyday there are less and less thingswe can control and enjoy responsibly.Let sex be one of them!Happy Year!Live! Laugh! Love!Yvonne Article Tags: Four Letter Source: Free Articles from ArticlesFactory.com
