Sexual Health |
 Humans are a sexual species. Women are sexually active for almost their entire lives and throughout all times of their menstrual cycle - meaning that they can choose to have sex even during times when they are physiologically unable to produce offspring. That means that sex must have some higher purpose and function than simply reproduction. Also, our sex drive doesn’t decrease with age, meaning that we strongly desire the physical connection even after we’re unable to bear children.
What’s that higher purpose?
- Sex brings feelings of complete happiness and intimacy.
- Sex provides a time when you express your love to your mate.
- Sex makes you feel good physically, emotionally and mentally.
You may think that the biggest sex organs are the genitals, but the brain is actually the largest sex organ. Some researchers have said that sexual thoughts go through a man’s brain once every minute and through a woman’s brain only once a day.
Sex is more than just thinking about the act of sex; it’s also about craving it. That craving originates in a part of the brain called the insula. The insula is a primitive area of the brain. The insula is especially active in women who have frequent orgasms. Orgasm not only increases blood flow to the genital areas, but to the lips, nose and labia as well.
What happens to a woman’s body during sex:
During sex your pupils dilate, nostrils flare, and your heart rate and Oxytocin levels increase. Your breasts enlarge and nipples increase in height by half an inch.
Why do women have orgasms?
From an evolutionary standpoint, it was one of the ways that women could tell whether a man would be a good lifelong partner, because it could help women distinguish between a caring, patient male and a selfish or impatient one.
So, what happens during intercourse?
- Your vaginal walls produce fluids.
- Together with the sights, sounds and smell of sex, the stimulation of the clitoris, labia and breasts, your body builds up a complex and highly enjoyable crescendo of intense physical sensation.
- Your brain tells your vagina and nearby muscles to contract.
- During orgasm, the uterus dips in and sucks up semen into the uterus to increase the chance of fertilization.
Women who have orgasms have a higher tendency to retain sperm compared to those who don’t have an orgasm.
What’s involved in female orgasm?
The female orgasm is a complex thing. The brain serves as the main conductor in this sexual symphony, but an orgasm might involve many different factors, including the area known as the G-spot (nerve gathering). The G-spot is located in the front wall of the vagina and produces an intense orgasm when properly stimulated.
 So, if you insert your index finger upward into the vagina and make the “come here” movement, you will touch the G-spot region that exists in some women. The region is often not that sensitive in some women, but you never know until you try.
Women can also be stimulated to orgasm not only through their genitals but also through the mouth, nipples, and other parts of the body. The theory here is that sexual stimuli are carried from the cervix and uterus to the brain through the Vagus nerve—one of the nerves stimulated during deep breathing and meditation. Remember we talked about the Oxy-breath (the breath that stimulates the Vagus nerve and releases Oxytocin) on the Home Page and the Emotional Page.
Sexy Food?
When you go shopping, consider buying these foods, which are not only healthy, but also increase your sexual appeal and sexual drive as well:
- Apples (sweet breath)
- Asparagus (rich in Vitamin E, which helps hormone building)
- Bananas (contain bromelain enzyme, believed to improve libido )
- Celery (contains androsterone, a hormone released by male sweat that turns women on)
- Figs (high in amino acids to increase libido)
- Garlic (contains allicin, an ingredient that increases blood flow to the sexual organs)
- Nutmeg (significantly increases sexual activity in rats)
- Oysters (high in zinc, which helps produce testosterone)
- Wild yams (may increase genital sensitivity)
