Men’s Sexual Health
We are not stereotypes but have incredible diversity and ranges of thoughts, feelings, experiences, and sexual preferences. Some of us are saintly, some are villainous, while most of us are in the broad expanse in between. While we are diff erent from each other in many ways, we all seek sexual health. Here are principles and facts that are common to all of us when it comes to sexual health. Men’s sexual health is grounded on psychological and physical facts and truths. Fact #1: Healthy Men Are Proud of Their Sexuality Feeling good about your body and sexuality is essential to being sexually healthy. Th e truth about great sex is that every man deserves to feel proud and confi dent of his masculinity. Okay, there are jokes that sexual health for men is impossible or an oxymoron—that men are sexual idiots or “only think with their penis.” Th ese are simplistic stereotypes. Trash talk! Each man can feel proud of his masculinity. Sex is a good part of a man’s (and a woman’s) life, not something to feel ashamed or embarrassed about.
Feeling proud of your body, unashamed of your powerful sex drive and sexual desires, buoyed by your sexual function, and clear with yourself of the importance of feeling pleased and satisfi ed with sex are important principles of men’s sexual health. Th is confi dence is based in physical, psychological, and relationship principles that accept masculinity with pride and self-respect.
