Reasons Not to Have Sex

In most modern-day societies, the idea of not having sex may sound preposterous. After all, isn’t physical intimacy one of the key ingredients of a healthy and fulfilling life? Well, if that’s the case, then we stumble upon a problem, as the visibility of sexuality and eroticism only increases in this age, the frequency of sexual intercourse actually decreases. Recent numbers suggest that people, especially young men, are having less sex than before. So, if we put such a high value on sex and view it as a life necessity, we could say that an increasing number of people are deprived of something essential. But is this truly the case? Do we need sex as much as we think we do? And could not having sex even be beneficial to us? The purpose of this video is not to discourage lovemaking or to shame those who do it. It’s simply an exploration of reasons not to engage in the “pleasure of all pleasures:” sex.
