Malaysians are unfamiliar with the subject of sex. As a Malaysian, I can say from personal experience that I did not grow up with parents who were open to discussing sex. In fact, until I started reading children’s books, I knew nothing about sex. And believe me when I say that fifty shades of grey are not the way to learn about sex. Nonetheless, there’s no denying that it was an intriguing novel. However, it may not be everyone’s cup of tea.

My point is that sex is an important aspect of life, and no one should be ashamed of it. The desire for another is a natural aspect of our human nature, and it’s perfectly normal. What’s more common is that people who have sex find it boring at times. This is, of course, where I come in. You may not realise it, but your lack of a sex life could be driving a hole between you and your spouse. Yes, you heard me correctly. Your sexual life has an impact on your marriage. Of course, this isn’t for everyone, but it’s never hurt to spice up your sex life. Here are some ways your sexual life may have an impact on your marriage:

Foreplay 

Sex isn’t simply about doing the deed and then leaving it at that. It’s best to think of it as a trip. And believe me when I say that this trip has its own set of steps. First and foremost, there is foreplay. I understand that as a married pair, you have other responsibilities such as jobs, chores, children, and so on, but sometimes you simply have to sit back, relax, and enjoy your time with your partner. One method is to engage in foreplay. You can even toss in some sex toys you picked up recently to help lighten the mood. 

Stress reliever

Another important component that many people ignore is the fact that sex is a stress reliever. This is due to the fact that when you orgasm, your body releases hormones that help to relax the human body, which acts as a stress reliever. And we all know that the biggest source of stress in any marriage is frustration. So, the next time you feel like smacking your lover in the face because you’re stressed, turn to sex. It’s a far less painful and bloody procedure that also leaves you satisfied.

Bonding 

As strange as it may sound, sex is a method of communication that does not involve the use of words. It’s a way of communicating with your partner by moving your bodies together. Some people consider sex to be an art form, and I have to agree. It not only brings you closer to your spouse but also relieves the stress that may be preventing you from being completely honest with them. Pillow chat is no laughing matter; it could be the weapon you need to escape a devastating divorce. Try it once in a while!
