Even If You Don’t Have A Lot Of Sex You Can Still Be A Sex Goddess

Why is everyone always trying to medicalize women’s sexuality?
We are not machines, and we should not feel we have to always be turned on, nymphomaniac, sex goddesses.
Yet anther study has come out looking at female sexual dysfunction (FSD) and misleading readers to think that it is more of a problem than it is.
A clinic in New Jersey interviewed 587 women about FSD. It is great that we know what women are suffering with so we can help them, yes, but the problem with studies like this is that they try to make FSD seem so widespread as to be epidemic and it’s really not like that.
They said they “found 63 per cent of the women suffered from FSD”.
But this is misleading. The women they interviewed were patients attending a urology clinic, so they do not represent the rest of the population.
It is still useful to know what the most common problems are that women have, but please don’t think that all women have these problems.
And yes, lack of desire and orgasm issues are common, but that doesn’t have to be a problem. A busy career woman, a working mom, really any woman you meet, may have stresses in her life or medications she takes, or various other things happening in her life that keep her from having or wanting to have sex.
But so what? Why should we want to have sex all the time?
In fact, she could be a perfectly healthy woman, with no worries or cares in the world, and still not want to have sex. This is normal, not something that needs to be fixed.
I’m wondering if the timing of this study has anything to do with the clinic wanting to sell the new female viagra that is being tested.
One interesting thing they found was that women between 31 and 45 are having about the same amount of sex as women between 18 and 30-years-old, but the younger group is having more problems (54%) than the older group (43%). Perhaps this is because as women age, learn about their bodies, and become more assertive, they learn to have better sex and ask for what they need to get off.
Being a sex goddess doesn’t mean wanting to have sex all the time and getting off every time. It means being secure and confident in your sexuality, knowing what you want, and knowing how to get it when you want it. I just wish the pharma companies would stop getting in the way of women experiencing this by making them think they are broken.
