Healthy Sex Support Group
This community is dedicated to an open discussion about healthy sex and sharing thoughts and feelings about sexuality and improving one's sex life. Most active adults desire to have an active and fulfilling sex life, both for themselves and also their partner. Here we discuss common sexual challenges faced by both men and women.
Last evening I was watching on Austrian television about a study recently published about how today's couples in Europe are suffering from the latent effects of sex presented through the marketing industry virutally everywhere - from shampoo to shoes; from cars to skateboards; from soda-pop to champagne - everything has sex in it.
The empirical results is that today's Europeans believe that they have to be Barbie & Ken Dolls of perfection. And there is this constant stress of being perfectly sexy - to the point that people are beginning to lose their appetite for having sex at all. Every women becoming Kim Kardashian is just too stressful and eventually becomes the biggest turn-off of them all. Couples lose interest in each other because they are constantly bombarded with sexual suggestion with perfect-looking people.
The Libido has lost its confidence, apparently - in a world of perfect make-up, perfect look, perfect tan, perfect skin, perfect shave, etc.
Any thoughts?

That is really sad if you stop to think about it that every single person in the world wants to change something about themselves, to fit the mold of what's desirable. :(
I have never judged anyone on appearance and I mostly find people that DO NOT fit the idea of beauty to be the most beautiful. I have become more comfortable with myself as time goes on, but I still want to change things about my appearance.
