Dr Premlata Chawla Myths about human sexuality by and large, centre on male sexual performance which is seen as a model, and implies that sex is not for enjoyment, or for expressing love. Myths are based on wrong attitudes and ignorance about sexual matters. Most of these myths tend to cluster around erroneous beliefs about performance, functioning, aging, quality of sex and role of women.
Men are always ready for sex.
Most men are not horny all the time. Fatigue, partner issues, business worries and other distractions all influence a man's interest and readiness for sex. Pleasurable physical contact will always lead to sex. Touching and being touched are a wonderful part of human experience and need not always be a prelude to sex. Real sex requires that a man must have a good erection.
