We all have needs. A yearning that leads to our need for mental and physical erotic stimulation. Some people need to be stimulated daily, some weekly and some have to settle for what they can get. If you haven't already figured it out, I'm talking about the insatiable, S-E-X.
Now, we all know there is such a thing as not getting enough of it. Whew! I'm sure we've all dreaded the times we've been there. But does there ever come a point, for those who are as lucky, where there's just too much bumping and grinding?
For the life of me, I can't seem to think of how there could be. But when you factor in all aspects, I guess I could understand why some would feel they need a breather. Not getting enough work done could be an issue. Not spending enough time out with family and friends and too much time trapped in your bedroom, or wherever you choose to get your rocks off. Or simply not enough quality time for yourself.
But here's the thing, isn't that what sleep is for? I'm sure if your boss, family, friends and even yourself knew how much you were getting your dose of daily pleasure, they wouldn't care how often you show, if at all. Just be sure to take breaks in between, to avoid limping (from lack of oxygen to the penis) and soreness. Though, skipping a few days to gear yourself up for the excitement of missing, is always best. You never know what you have until it's gone right?
According to
hitchedmag.com (don't judge my sources) there are several benefits from having an amazing sexual appetite. There's cardiovascular exercise, a lower incidence of cold and flu, better sleep, longer life, reduced depression AND an improved sense of smell. You can't make these things up! Now, I'm not saying hump until you're numb and can no longer identify your genitalia, but by all means, get your rocks off! Because TRUST, there will soon be a time when you wish you could.
So who are the lucky winners that have felt like they were having too much sex? Is there such a thing? What did you do to slow things down?

"We all have needs."
I survived 22 years without having sex.
"You never know what you have until it's gone right?"
I definitely didn't miss it before I had it.
The more you get it, the more you convince yourself you "need" it. Last I checked, the scientific requirements for an organism to be considered "living" don't mention sex... the ability to reproduce is one of them, but I don't think pseudo-reproducing on a daily, weekly, monthly, or even yearly basis appears under any of the categories.
"Is there such a thing?"
If you feel sex is a "need", absolutely.
"What did you do to slow things down?"
I stopped having sex.
Personally I think too much sex is when it starts to seriously ache, those body parts are not designed for continuous re-use over a condensed period of time.
As far as needing it, I think sex is more of an expression of particular personality traits in an intimate fashion than anything else (i.e. control, empathy, etc.).
You don't need another person to fulfill your physical bodily 'needs'. You can flush and control (with time and restraint) the hormones and chemicals yourself, either through masturbation or celibacy.
Sex is really only a requirement if you have outstanding personality/emotional issues. Some of us have more of that, some less. I know people who just have sex for the sake of having sex, they feel nothing other than sensory pleasure from it, and I know people who find it to be some weird interconnected enlightenment with their partner. Everyone is different.
Either way, I say have as much sex as you want, or need. Everyone always measures how much of something you should have against other life responsibilities. I say just go for it, enjoy what makes you happy, be it sex or work. Your life, your life time to spend, and in the classic cliche, you never know if this will be your last day.
My boyfriend say's that we have too much sex. I think that sex 2-3 times a day isn't too much! But I guess for guys, getting it up and keeping it up is harder for men than it is for women. We just get wet and are ready to go!
He is happy with once a day, twice if separated by a lengthy time period. I think that is just fine I suppose.
I guess there is such a thing as too much sex because last summer I had to go get checked out because I was in so much pain down there. Turned out it was irritation caused from too much sex and then I had to go a week without anything.
Actually, yes. Having too much sex can lead to neurochemical imbalances.

Can always have too much of anything. Though it's probably only a problem with sex when it's interfering with your life. Skipping/missing/showing up late for work or school, not eating, not sleeping, etc. because of sex. Or sex too often with too many people. Nothing wrong with that per se, but it definitely gets more dangerous.
Generally twice a day is my limit, because otherwise the downstairs mix up feels like it's been through blender...ouch... Maybe my guy just bangs me too hard!
when I got my batch of sex toys in the mail, I spent at least 6hours trying out each one
how else was I going to know which one that I like best. there are so many varieties! adult toys are so sexy and cool
as for actual sex, I can't get enough, but he has to rest or he has those in between lapses where he has to recover while I'm still horny, so that's sort of a bummer. that's what the toys are for
once I stick something in there, it is like, I want to keep it in there, and keep grinding
better enjoy the high libido while I can before I get dry and/or reach menopause.
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - hey,
I've been wondering over the past year or so...
are you really an idiot or
just a troll?
@lonelystrangergirl@xanga - Lol... way to troll, troll.
@lonelystrangergirl@xanga - are you a stalker or just a ho
no, your mom is.
Never too much...it's definitely a need in my marriage. And we enjoy fulfilling it!
Never.
@superGchik@xanga - I agree, it's the pairing of people that make the sex amazing. Not just the sex itself.
yes, there is. sex is fucking terrible for the environment--condoms have a high footprint and birth control hormones end up in our water supply. having kids is even worse. so i try not to fuck too frequently.
yes. To much of anything is bad.
when a guy's balls start to hurt and a girl's legs are sore, that's when you know they've had too much sex.
Too much is called a sex addiction where it hurts your life and those around you because you can't keep it in your pants
Of course there's such a thing as too much sex. It's possible and not good to have too much of anything.
"I'm sure if your boss, family, friends and even yourself knew how much you were getting your dose of daily pleasure, they wouldn't care how often you show, if at all."
Somehow I feel "having sex" is not a good enough excuse to miss work all the time...
Too much sex is bad if you're consumed by sexual thoughts 24/7 and affects your daily life. Personally, I want more sex from my significant other. Preferably, I would like to do it three or four times a day. However, we fit in as much sex sessions as we can if it's feasible usually two times a day.
@LupusInvictus@xanga - I'm an avid reader of PT and even I didn't noticed that article O__o
I wouldn't want to have sex three or more times a day for several days in a row. I get sore or just feel so completely satisfied I don't want any more. :P
First of all, nobody NEEDS sex. It's not like food or water or shelter. There is this thing called masturbation for a reason. Furthermore, yes there is such a thing as too much sex. If you're not married any sex is too much sex, and honestly, I Would be fine without it forever. If I were your boss and found out you weren't working in favor of sex, you'd be fired. If I were your wife, divorced, your child, disowned, your mother highly disappointed.
