How to Talk About Sex Without Feeling Weird

Does thinking of sex make you blush or feel awkward? Does talking about sex make you feel uncomfortable, or maybe you feel that you have to tell a joke to lighten the tension?

You are not alone!

Some people can’t even say the word “sex.“ They use words that replace it, and maybe they will exaggerate what their sex life is or deny having sex when they are sexually active. No one needs to know what you don’t want them to know. However, is there a way to talk about sex confidently? There is!

While not all people may be in a position to have a confident talk about sex, because they may not be confident with the topic of sex themselves, there are people out there that you can talk to about your desires, questions, and experiences.

I’m going to let you in on a secret. There are a lot of people thinking about sex and discussing it right now. Society likes to make us think we are the only ones with fantasies, desires, and needs, but people are thinking about and having sex every day.

Finding a safe person to talk to can ease the awkward feelings.

I used to think that I was the only one who had elaborate fantasies, and then I started talking to different friends and realized we shared the same fantasies and were both afraid to tell other people. The more you practice something, the easier it gets.

Surrounding yourself with sex postive people can be a great place to start. Let’s be honest, not everybody is going to be welcome to the idea of discussing sex, but when you find people who are sexually confident and sex positive, you can talk about sex in an empowering and liberating way without any of the discomfort.
