Sex alternatives Definition (113 views)
Teenagers may have very strong hormonal changes that cause strong desires for sex. A teenager may find they are always thinking about sex and seeking out avenues to read or see pictures of sexual acts. This curiosity is normal. A teen should know that sexual intercourse is not just a physical act of self-satisfaction. Numerous elements are involved and it is vital that a teen understand all of the areas of their life that will be affected if they do indeed engage in sexual intercourse; pregnancy, sexual diseases and the overwhelming emotion feelings that one may not be prepared to handle are just a few. Before giving in to the desires to have sex, a teen should look to other avenues. Keeping busy with physical activities can often defer the thoughts of sex. Playing sports, working out, running can all increase endorphins; the brain chemicals that are released when having intercourse. Masturbation is also an alternative to release sexual tension while remaining safe.
