Why does it seem like most people have a difficult time discussing sex?

Question

Seems like if you ask a serious question about sex you'll always get someone making a negative comment about you. Or they report you, or think your being an A-$-$! Is it that difficult to have a serious discussion about something just about everybody on this plant does?

I mean planet!

Answer 1

It depends on how old you are and what you are asking. Unfortunately, there are so many people on here who are 15 and just being silly. On the other hand, you can find a ton of 30-somethings just trying to get people to embarrass themselves. The whole reporting feature is stupid, you can report someone for impersonation...I usually report people for impersonating intelligent people, don't think they've done anything yet. If you have a serious question about sex, you will find at least 2% of the responses to be legitimate answers, but for most, sex is subjective and the answers biased.
I love to discuss sex with people. Any woman I'm with has to at least be comfortable enough to talk about sex or she won't get any from me. The problem you will most often run into is people who know exactly what you are talking about and have some solution or answer will probably not want to get slapped with a sexual harrassment allegation, which makes for borderline censorship, thank God I live in the land of free speech.

Answer 2

I think you will find those people everywhere, but I have made the suggestion to Yahoo answers to put up an 'adult' section for just those type of topics. There are a lot of young people on the board who cant help but make an inapprpriate response to a serious topic about sex.

Of course they come up with a lot of the stupid questions too. But I think a registration for the adult section would thin some of that out.

Answer 3

Maybe sex isn't to be thought as of a subject of discussion. It's more like: make her wet, clothes off, some action, make her more wet, extreme action, tease her a bit, make her have an orgasm, and if you held long enough, it's your turn.
Warning: this takes a lot of practice to accomplish. Do not be disappointed if this doesn't work for you for the first 1 - 2 - 3 - ... 47 times.

Answer 4

Some of the sex questions are deliberately perverse and the writer is either mentally ill or putting us on. In normal discussions, sex is from childhood a taboo subject in most households.

Answer 5

pple have a hard time discussing sex because often its the wrong pple discussing it. Sex is supposed to be discussed by people who honestly love each other and respect each other's feelings and bodies, such pple rarely hv a hard time

Answer 6

It appears that my experiences are very
different than yours! If,however you are
very sick & perverted,like say,: sadistic,
talking about kids,ect.... I can certainly
understand why no one would want to
talk to you!!!
Normal sex talk doesn't present a problem
to people I know. Everyone talks about it,
and this question makes me think of other
questions because it's so strange!!!
Everyone talks about sex!

Answer 7

i suppose people are comfortable discussing with their partner.not in public forum......but it depends on how the question is framed/asked...and it shouldn't look like its just a question for the askers gratification.......having said that ive seen some of your q and a and thet seem ok.....

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10
