Why Angry Sex Isn't Necessarily A Bad Thing

Resident MAXIM sex columnist Vanessa De Largie tells you why angry sex isn’t necessarily a bad thing...

What is angry sex? Well, for starters, it is often referred to as ‘make-up sex’ — it’s lustful, it’s primal and it’s forceful. It usually takes place after a heated argument or tiff. It’s when anger is siphoned through a good hard f—king. In a climate of feminist outrage, political correctness and 24-hour-news cycles — ‘angry sex’ is an unpopular sport to love. Individuals who indulge in angry sex are often subjected to public shamings. Males are labelled misogynists, rapists and abusers for willingly participating in said act. Females are labelled internalmisogynists, victims of the patriarchy and enablers of violence against women. It’s unsubstantiated vitriol and in my personal opinion — it’s fear-based. Sex is black, white, grey, pink, purple, leopard-skin and much, much more. It doesn’t fit neatly into a box but it often takes place inside one, (sorry, bad pun). Nevertheless, I’m here to tell you that I love angry sex. Why? Below I explore some of the reasons why.
