Sex Isn’t Like in the Movies!

Many women, and men for that matter, are under the false impression that what we see on the big silver screens in theaters when we see a hot sex scene between two actors, is how our sex life should be or look.  That is not the case, not by far, and unfortunately these scenes may be harming the outlook of Americans on their own sex lives when they compare it to the perfect looking, frequent and often long-lived sexual encounters in Hollywood. 

Yet they forget that these very same actors and actresses often date in real life, and guess what, it doesn’t work out.  And yeah, that’s because sex in real life, with all the messy variables that occur in real life, especially between a hard working couple who probably has a million and one other things going on in their life besides trying to address eachother’s each and every sexual and intimacy desire. 

Many sex therapists say that when people watch this kind of stuff, they are comparing themselves to an ideal that simply doesn’t exist in the real world, and they are essentially preparing themselves for a big disappointment when their sex lives and their partners do not act the way they see in the movies, or address each and every one of their fantasies and needs as we often times see in these movies. 

Female sexual enhancement depends on a man addressing her sexual needs, sure, but it also depends on a lot of things that happen outside the bedroom in a relationship.  Women are much more likely to harbor feelings of resentment and carry those over into the bedroom, unlike many men, who tend to be able to forget about past wrongs and fights that have occurred when it comes to havine sexual intercourse or any other sort of sexual intimacy.
