The coronavirus pandemic is taking its toll on all of us, inside and outside the bedroom. We asked sexologist Shan Boodram to help us figure out: What is normal?
I know that many millennials are doing their part to flatten the curve. But it’s nerve-wracking not to trust someone you live with.
I have found myself masturbating a lot more than usual. Is this normal? Any other suggestions for dealing with sexual tension?I don’t think that anyone gets to say what’s normal during an unprecedented, historically unique time. Don’t be so hard on yourself. That’s my advice for everybody: Make yourself feel OK. And that may look different for each person. Don’t worry so much about what everybody else is doing.
My partner and I are staying with his parents during the quarantine and it’s really hard to have sex with these thin walls. How to keep things hot in a situation like this! This sounds like the Christmas dilemma, except now we’re in spring. So it’s slightly warmer. I think that hot sex might still be an option if you guys do have a car and make sure you wipe everything down and wash your hands before and after. Maybe that’s your only chance of a getaway and also in a space that you can control who’s been there and who’s been within six feet of it. Other things you can do: Maybe it’s timing walks.
Finding creative ways to overcome this together can actually help to heighten sex drive and to bring a bit of danger to the situation that might increase your libido. So lean into that. Be creative with your partner. Be novel in your approach to solving this and be thankful that you’re in a home with parents who are probably cooking all your favorite meals right now, because that’s definitely where I wish I was right now.
