How do our sexual desires change as our awareness of our impending mortality increases
The
subject of death has been discussed a lot. Other than additional updates and
cautions about how to ultimately stay healthy and alive, there hasn't been much
else featured on major news outlets with over 1 million coronavirus cases and
over 74,000 deaths globally. As crazy as it sounds, my Incest
Sex Movies drive
has been significantly more impacted than anything else, even my mental health.
I feel like the natural response to all of this would be panic.
I'll be
honest—a part of me still finds it strange that this awareness hasn't elicited
a dreadful attitude within me. I took the time to discuss this with several
friends, and they all had a variety of explanations, ranging from their anxiety
taking control of their sex drive to others also feeling more horny than usual.
This can be explained in a few different ways.
According
to the Terror Management Theory, people develop coping mechanisms to adapt when
confronted with the reality of death, sex researcher Dr. Justin Emailer
explains in a recent article for Sex & Psychology. These coping mechanisms
vary from person to person, though. In fact, studies have shown that those who
have a more positive body image and are more open to physical intimacy tend to
use sex as a coping mechanism to lessen anxiety more than others when faced
with the possibility of their own death.
This has
been proven both in my own life and in the rise of "coronavirus
porn." I've looked up porn to help satisfy my lust so many times that I
can't even begin to count. In addition, Dr. emailer brought up the Dual Control
Model of Sexual Response, which contends that each person has a unique tendency
toward sexual desire.
I like
to think of this as being similar to traffic signals. When people are anxious,
their sex drives are more likely to stay on the red side of the light, making
it more difficult for them to be aroused. In contrast, when someone's sex
drives are more likely to hit the green side, this indicates greater sexual
excitement. Sometimes this occurs as a result of the brain's "fight or
flight" reaction to emotions like fear and anxiety, which can cause the
brain to mistakenly interpret those reactions as sexual arousal.
And as I think about it more, this makes
perfect sense. I've always thought of myself as a sexually precocious person,
and even now, there aren't many things outside of myself that would make me
uncomfortable thinking about having sex or masturbating. fresh job interview.
final exam week, shifting to a new state. Describe it.
While many people might find situations like
these stressful, I've always had the attitude that everything will be fine (or
maybe not fine, but at least better) once I've rubbed one out. Furthermore, sex
is the ultimate life-giving force and the ultimate antithesis of death. I'm
also talking about life as cherished experiences, not just life as
reproduction.
I've
recently started to wonder, "How can I satisfy my needs for intimacy at a
time when physical touch is discouraged?" Should I feel guilty for
prioritizing erotic pleasure during this tense time, of all things? Is it
typical to think that making room for possibility seems so insignificant in
comparison to actual death? I feel like I've switched back and forth between
those questions more often lately than I'd like to admit. Still, there are many
facets to sexual expression. There are many layers to how we deal with our
emotions toward death, and in that regard, I can say that there is no right or
wrong way to feel about changing sexual desires during trying times.
