Sex is not just physical, but emotional and psychological too from "summary" of Love Worth Making by Stephen Snyder, M.D.
Sex involves much more than just physical sensations. It also has a profound impact on our emotions and psyche. When we engage in sexual activity, we are not just relying on our bodies, but also on our feelings and thoughts. Our past experiences, fears, desires, and insecurities all come into play during sex, shaping our overall experience. Our emotions can greatly influence our sexual encounters. For example, feeling loved, desired, or respected by our partner can lead to more fulfilling and satisfying sex. Conversely, feeling insecure, anxious, or disconnected can negatively impact our sexual experiences. This emotional dimension of sex is often overlooked, but it plays a crucial role in determining the quality of our intimate relationships. Additionally, our psychological state can greatly affect our sexual experiences. Our beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions about sex can shape how we approach and engage in sexual activity. For instance, someone with deep-seated shame or guilt surrounding sex may struggle to fully enjoy and engage in sexual encounters. On the other hand, someone with a positive and open mindset towards sex may experience greater pleasure and satisfaction.- We can enhance our sexual experiences and deepen our relationships. It is important to recognize that sex is a complex interplay of physical, emotional, and psychological factors, all of which contribute to our overall sexual well-being.
