Common Sex Myths Busted ..... Read On

Despite a great deal of awareness, people are still sexually misinformed. Knowingly or unknowingly their sex lives are surrounded by a large number of myths and misconceptions.
So, here we bring to you a sex educator and relationship expert to debunk some of the myths surrounding the clandestine yet crucial aspect of an individual's life.
Dr. Yvonne K. Fulbright, the founder of Sexuality Source Inc, has shed light on six common sex myths, reports Fox News
Myth #1: Viagra is 100 percent effective
Regarding this, Fulbright wrote that men bearing this notion needed to think again because a desire component is needed for males to become sexually aroused and attain erection.
Myth # 2: A virgin's hymen always breaks
Breaking the misconception that the presence of a hymen is an indicator that a female is a virgin, and it is broken she has intercourse, the expert explains: This might not happen with every girl, and since girls are born with hymens of various sizes and openings, some might appear to have no hymen at all.
Fulbright also said that some girls might have their hymen stretched from activities like bicycling or horseback riding.
Myth # 3: Withdrawal = Good birth control
Regarding the notion that withdrawal is the best method of birth control, Fulbright said that pregnancy could occur any time unprotected sex was had, whether or not a male had climaxed.
Thus, according to the expert, withdrawal is not recommended as a form of birth control, especially for males who are sexually inexperienced.
Myth # 4: Oral sex is safe sex
Another misconception on the list was that oral sex does not put people at risk for sexually transmitted diseases, which was rendered untrue by the expert. He said that even oral sex can make you susceptible to STDs.
Myth # 5: You can't get pregnant if you aren’t ovulating
Regarding the thought that women can't get pregnant if you aren't ovulating, the expert said that it was not true.
Myth # 6: The Pill protects against STDs
Lastly, Fulbright debunked the myth that contraceptive pills protects against STDs. The expert said that such pills provide protection only from pregnancy, adding that it's the condom that can protect against STDs when sexually active.
