What Is Your Sexual Intelligence?

Otherwise very intelligent people can be considerably unintelligent when it comes to sex. What is sexual intelligence and how do we measure it?

 

Sexually intelligent partners give way to enjoying sex and make their fantasies come true without any hindrances or second thoughts. (jlp)

 

Sexuality has a great influence on our lives. Dr Sheree Condrad and Dr Michael Millburn, the authors of the book on sexual intelligence, emphasize the fact that sex exerts an even greater impact on those of us who aren't aware of its power, or on those who consciously overlook it or ignore it. Sex intelligence is connected with sexual satisfaction and the ability to recognize the sexual needs of one's partner.

Are you sexually intelligent?

Sexual intelligence means a series of skills and types of knowledge associated with sexuality. The more you are sexually intelligent, the less problems will you encounter in your sex life. Sexually intelligent people are well informed about sex, they're in touch with their body and are familiar with the way it responds to different stimuli.

Of course, it isn't enough to read numerous articles or books on sexual advice or to get thoroughly acquainted with the human anatomy and psychology. A truly sexually intelligent person will know how to transfer their knowledge into practice. It's important to note that we aren't talking only about knowledge that is accessible to everyone who wants it. Sexually intelligent people accept what's in them and are in tune with their desires. They're fully acquainted with their own personal map of sexual desires and fantasies.

They're also conscious of the negative aspects and attitudes of their environment that may at the present moment prevent them from feeling totally relaxed in bed, but they are determined to work on themselves to change that over time. They know how to talk openly about sex with their partner, and they know how to put themselves in their partner's shoes. They are successful in combining their own desires and expectations with the desires and expectations of their partner.
