Sex is supposed to be an intimate encounter between two people that should be fun and exciting. For some it can be an intimidating activity. British sex expert Tracey Cox says, worrying about sex is a common fear that continues to rise. The only way to enjoy yourself is if you can get out our your head and stop overthinking things. She reveals the common fears women have in the bedroom and how to alleviate that anxiety.
Obviously, one of the biggest concerns women have is getting pregnant. This of course can be prevented by using birth control and/or condoms. You can also use condoms to help protect against sexually transmitted diseases if that is what you are afraid of by having intercourse.
Women feel the pressure of society's idea of the "perfect" body and getting undressed can be uncomfortable. Many people feel this way, not just the ladies. If you go into "the act" stressed out to begin with it will be hard to relax and enjoy. Cox recommends you try closing your eyes this way you can be in the moment and focus on what feels good. It will be harder for you to be distracted by what you look like.
Another insecurity people have during intimacy is that they are being judged. Men fear that they will be bad in bed while women feel judged if they are too good in the sack. Women are afraid they might been seen as being too experienced or liking sex too much.
You cannot orgasm if you are not feeling comfortable. Communication in the bedroom is the only way to make sure you enjoy yourself fully and for many that means reaching climax. If you are worried and stressed you will more than likely not be able to enjoy yourself prohibiting that release to happen. Make sure you talk about what works for you so both of you can enjoy this activity to the max.
