Sexuality - Statistics & Facts
Sexuality describes sexual feelings, behaviors, and thoughts that we have towards ourselves and others. Sexuality plays a large role in our lives. Yet, talking about sex, sexuality, and relationships can be difficult and uncomfortable, as sexuality and sexual pleasure are still considered to be a taboo. There are many reasons why sexuality is perceived in this way in our society, which can be analyzed under a cultural, philosophical, and psychological perspective. Nevertheless, talking about sex and sexuality generally improves people’s sexual relations.
