Great Reasons To Do It!!!!
It Boost Self-Esteem
A good sex life with the right person – one who builds us up rather than brings us down – makes us happier, increases our confidence, wards off depression, and boost our self-esteem. Sex assures us that we are okay. It helps us to feel loved and wanted.
Natural Pain Releiver
Forget the aspirin and reach for that someone special! Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain. Sex is a great way to take your mind off of how lousy you are feeling. So for those of you who often complain of headaches, have sex and the pain may be gone after it!
It Helps You Live Longer
Regular sex (once or twice a week) can add as much as two years to your life. The latest research says that men can reduce their mortality risk if the orgasm 2 or more times per week. It seems that for women though, it is quality of the sex and not the quantity. Women experience this increase in years when they enjoy the sex that they have. So remember that generous and regular doses of love and affection keep us young and healthy. Sex seems like a small price to pay for extending one's life!
Relieves Stress
Now a days, so many people are reaching for anti-depressants and sleeping pills to treat anxiety and insomnia. But such medication often causes side effects. This is the story of my life because I take something to help me sleep on most nights of the week (I know that it’s not good, but I cannot help it). Doing this little research on sex, I realize that the remedy for my sleeplessness may be found in the bedroom.
Normal sex is 100 percent natural, without side effects, lessens tension and encourages sleep. Sex leads to emotional and physical relaxation so it is a natural antidote to stress. Did you know that a study based out of Chicago found that the people with the least amount of free time available (usually those the most stressed out) are more sexually active than those with the most free time? It’s because the stress relieves their stress.
More About Sleep
True indeed that sex helps us to feel relaxed, but in addition to this, after orgasm - serotonin (a sleep-promoting hormone) is released into the body encouraging us to turn over and close our eyes. Now we all know why some of us get soooooooo sleepy after sex, LOL.
Less Frequent Colds
Wilkes University in Pennsylvania claims that individuals who have sex once or twice a week show 30 percent higher levels of an antibody called immunoglobulin A, which is known to boost the immune system. This boost to the immune system is critical in warding off infections, like colds.
It Makes Us Look Terrific
Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love, they produce double amounts of the hormone estrogen, which makes hair shiny and skin smooth.
You're Getting A Good Workout
Would you rather run 75 miles or have sex three times a week for one year? While both burn the same number of calories (about 7,500), one is decidedly more pleasurable than the other. Regular sex - which burns approximately 150 calories in a half-hour -- is regular exercise. You'll have all the same benefits of spending that time in the gym, including improved circulation, lower cholesterol and the release of feel-good endorphins.
It Increases Intimacy
Love making gives us the much needed opportunity to set aside the masks of everyday life and to reveal our inner selves to our partners. Honest, intimate sex helps us to connect a deep and nurturing level. It builds trust, deepens and strengthens the entire relationship, and can heal our emotional wounds.
So, tell me......What do you think?

If having two or more orgasms a week reduces mortality than I have enough in the life bank to be immortal. Oh, I have so many dirty things I could say but I won't. LOL!
Pregnancy and being stuck with the person who gave you the headache forever are two side effects I can think of. (smile)

LOL.. Funny stuff! And I can vouch for the headache aspect of it!
Just the PROMISE of good knookie can clear up my skin...LOL
LadyNay Yep your right!!! It’s all about how you feel. As long as it is good and you are feeling good, it is definitely good for you (smile).
Meljoy Girl you are a good one! I don’t think that I have the energy to keep 2 happy, LOL. Shoot my boo got off work early today and I’m hoping that he does not call talking about coming over here. I’m tired today, LOL.
Mwabi You are right about the partner being the one causing the headache sometimes, hahaha…..
GP Girl, I don’t have the time or the energy to keep up with 2! LOL, but yes you would definitely be getting the beauty treatment.
LaaLaa Yes, GOOD sex is really the key especially for women. For women it is all about the QUALITY of the sex. This does not seem to be the case for me. Does that surprise anyone? Hmmmmmmm….
Jacque LOL, girl you sound like someone else I know. As a matter of fact, there is also another blogger that has reclaimed her celibacy!!!
Koolbreeze Yall are too funny! LOL @ “the push push”
Mrs. Tj LOL, girl I don’t know. From the sounds of it 95% of us need no convincing.
Freaky D Oh gosh, don’t even mention any of the side effects! What about being sprung over of them or “whooped” as they say. Now that can be a problem to (smile).
Alli That’s pretty damn interesting!!! Good for you. See everyone, more proof of the powers of good sex (smile).
Schatzi People I’ve talked to seem to really agree on the headache part!
Niki LMAO….girl you are so damn crazy, LOL!!!!

Shooot, you 'aint said nothing but a word. Matter fact, I need to go make a booty, I mean, PHONE call.......
I wouldn't mind being sprung. I don't think it will ever happen though. The woman that can make me lose my mind like that will have her name tattooed on my forehead, epics written about her, and songs sung of her sexual skills. LOL!

haha, never! I will never turn down sex! I am also 21 and a little crazy, so that factors into it. I am the one who is incapable of being fullfilled! I'd have sex 5 times a day if I could. But neither of my guys (both over 30) can handle that, so I take what I can get... :-) But I can take em both on in the same day :-) god, I sound like a whore!
And yea, your right, I probably would pass out if I knew how much you owed. I don't know whats worse, ebign broke now, or being broke later!

5 times a day Meljoy? I'm jealous. One good one and I'm smoking a cigarette and drinking a Pepsi (in my mind only, don't smoke).
