psychosexual

Psychosexual disorders undermine not only the person who suffer from them personally, but also the people in their everyday relationships too.  Whether family, friends, or, particularly, their lover – psychosexual disorders can have such a power that, if not dealt with properly, can severe the most precious relationships. An individual’s psychosexual disorders, such as sexual [...]

While diversity is a trait to be celebrated in this world, a lack of understanding of different customs and beliefs can lend itself to awkward situations if approached without care. Where one culture may be eager to discuss a subject openly, others avoid it and view it as taboo.  In no other aspect of life [...]

Contemporary society – or perhaps human nature- works in such a way that accountability or individual failures rarely rest on the shoulders of those who deserve it. Mistakes cannot be the fault of the individual; it must be your neighbor, the government, the stress caused by others, or the stars above that work against you. [...]

Perhaps no time is more complicated in a person’s life than adolescence. Adolescence serves as the physical and mental transition period from childhood to adulthood and is marked by plenty of changes. From the hormone-fueled mood swings to the hormone-fueled sexual intrigue, the developments that enhance and threaten adolescence can have a profound effect on [...]

Mainstream media and popular imagination seem to suggest that only one gender monopolizes the field of sexual perversion, debauchery, and disorders. While perhaps the male gender has an iron grip on sexual dysfunctions in popular imagination, in reality, females are increasingly joining their male counterparts in opening up about their own sexual dysfunctions and exploring [...]

As Governor Mark Sanford staged a press conference to confess to an extramarital affair in June 2009, the sensationalist juice of the story was only matched by its banality. Sex has always been viewed as not just a part of politics, but the fact that it was a male who engaged in it made it [...]

“Necessity is the mother of invention,” the old cliché goes. Medicine continues to find an answer to the many diseases that have hammered the human species through time. Though by no means is it to suggest that discovering remedies to diseases such as malaria is an easy task, sicknesses caused by the external environment do [...]

Our attempts to conceal our individual sexual inclinations through restraint or denial are ultimately a fruitless enterprise, Sigmund Freud argued. Even a newborn baby oozes with libido. Initially, this libido energy is directionless, requiring a compass to navigate and develop itself. Considering that this libido exists in the newborn suggests that is an essential component [...]

Popular imagination paints an abstract picture concerning the sexual appetites of the opposite sexes: Whereas men have an insatiable thirst for erotic play, females are supposedly, at the least, better at controlling such urges. While such generalizations are not entirely wrong, it can be argued that what may partially contribute to the perpetuation of such [...]

When historians reflect on 2009 and ask what the great trendsetter of the year was, we would be hard pressed to argue against the rise of Twitter – a social networking site that allows one to express their innermost thoughts or most banal activities (unfortunately, the latter is the more popular choice). There are two [...]
