The information in this article comes from the ‘Sex Sense for Married Millennials – Intimacy, Family & Health’ expert forum in December 2018, which was organized by the Federation of Reproductive Health Associations, Malaysia (FRHAM) with the support of Durex Malaysia, as well as their educational booklet Drama Kahwin Malam Jumaat.
True romance and great sex co-exist in the same universe, and no, it’s not on the big screen or on the pages of a romance novel. How is it possible to find this perfect chemistry of love and sex? Well, behind every honeyed word and sensual touch is some science and psychology.
This month, let’s discover how we can hone our sex sense by making some small simple changes in our daily lives. No overpriced hotel dinners or trips to exotic lands necessary (although they are certainly optional if our budget allows for them)!
THERE’S NOTHING LIKE GOOD CLEAN LOVE
Good personal hygiene is an important part of a sexually fulfilling relationship. Nobody wants to kiss someone with bad breath or, worse, realize that the other person could really use a bath after the clothes are off.
Wash the tender bits. Wash genital areas before sex to get rid of unpleasant smells caused by bacteria. You see, our clothes, especially our undergarments, rest close to our skin. Flakes of dead skin can slough off and stick to the fabric, therefore.
Furthermore, throughout the day, we sweat and use the toilet and, as a result, fluids can soak the fabric and cause bacteria to thrive. Also, it is dark down there. Therefore, our groin has everything bacteria needs to grow and thrive – darkness, water and food (the dead skin cells). What results tend to give off an odour best described as “No love for you tonight!”
Don’t forget to flush. It’s good to have a pee after sex to flush germs out of our system.
Better still, why not shower together? Washing up before and after sex can only enhance the foreplay and afterglow respectively. (Plus, some people claim showering together helps to cut down on the water bill … but don’t quote us on that.)
