I know someone who has never had sex and doesn't want to. She was horrifically abused by her father throughout her childhood and into her early teens. I believe it is quite common for people in this sort of situation to have no desire for sex.
For most normal, healthy people it is usual to enjoy sex. But there are always exceptions.
Yes, obviously in cases of abuse and things of that sort, there will be exceptions. I did not intend this post to refer to everyone, but I do think it applies to most people. I just think that a vast majority of people will not admit how much they truly enjoy sex. Do you agree?
If we're talking in normal circumstances, all else being well, then yes, it is very normal for people to enjoy sex, totally agree.
I don't often hear people denying this though, which is why I perhaps misunderstood the true meaning of your question - I assumed perhaps you were talking about the exceptions to the rule because I've never heard someone say they don't enjoy sex unless it was in an unusual context (eg aforementioned friend who suffered childhood abuse).
If you are hanging around with people who tell you that enjoying sex is immature then maybe just try and avoid them from now on. They sound weird. That's like saying you don't like eating or sleeping lol. Not everyone wants casual sex of course, but to pretend that any form of sex isn't enjoyable is just stupid.
The points you nake are fair, but you are kind of missing the point of the post. It is not that people don't admit to liking sex, people don't deny shit that obvious. Its that people aren't honest about the EXTENT to which they enjoy sex.
I'd never thought about it before. I guess I don't talk to people about my personal sexual enjoyment, except with my close friends. And my close friends are always honest about it, I think, but that's not saying much because you're likely to much more honest with close friends than you would be with the general public.
Obviously I talk to my husband about it but that doesn't count lol.
I guess I wasn't the right person to weigh in on the discussion?
Not so! I appreciate your outlook. Nobody is really well qualified to answer this honestly, unless your a sexoligist or sometin. Its more of what you think it would be, more than like a survey of hard data showing people don't admit it. Its no exact science so don't feel bad
Is it normal to think people don't admit how much they actually enjoy sex?
