Whether heterosexual, homosexual, or somewhere in the middle we all want to improve our sex life. Who wants to be alone? We can't offer you an article, magic pill, perfume, potion, or pick-up line that will automatically send you and your intended partner to the bedroom. However, I really do believe that you can perk up your sex life whoever you are. We present a double series of articles for the letter M.
This article focuses on the problems and pitfalls that prevent you from improving your sex life. Another series focuses on what you should be doing. Both our "negative" and "positive" suggestions will help you get what you want. Here we examine malnutrition, megalomania, and miser.
M is for malnutrition. This subject is no laughing matter. Thousands of young women are literally starving themselves for beauty (read sex object) reasons. This is a real tragedy and must be stopped. Clearly there is no easy solution. Some countries have banned severely underweight models and all I can say is good for them. Our daughter has an attractive friend an excellent cook who goes around making speeches on campuses against anorexia. She should know; she was there. It is terrible to think of all the women who are pushed into prostitution to put food on their family's table. One of the key ideas of the sexual revolution was to enjoy some of the best life has to offer without victimization. It hasn't worked.
M is for megalomania. There is a danger if you go to bed wearing a Napoleon costume. Don't get carried away or they may have to carry you away. This goes for you too, Carrie. I'm not going to name any names but they say a lot of dictators are real duds in the sack. On the other hand, some dictators have voracious sexual appetites. Now a voracious sexual appetite may mask being a dud in bed, but that isn't always the case. Dictators get what they want, at least while the going is good. And megalomaniacs can be like little, little dictators with no one to dictate to except for their unfortunate partners. What happens when two megalomaniacs get together? It looks like a power struggle to me. And sex is only a small part of the mix.
M is for miser. Squeeze your partner, not your pennies or nickels. Hold onto your partner, not onto those bills in your wallet. You don't have to throw your money around Diamond Jim Brady but remember money was made for spending. If you can't afford a restaurant, make something special at home. And it doesn't always have to be a Jello surprise. If you're on a beer budget try one of those imported beers once in a while. I'm not allowed to name names. Or go for a local beer from a tiny brewery. They will have to charge you more than the giants (I'm not allowed to name names) but believe me, it can be worth it. And I'm not even talking about the fringe benefits; I'm talking about the beer.
Are you tired of all this negativity? Take a look at our companion series that accentuates the positive.

He teaches classes in computers at an Ontario French-language community college. Among his many web sites he is particularly proud of his new site celebrating all kinds of love including physical love at http://www.sexsexesex.com - You will find a wide range of jokes, articles, and quotes devoted to various aspects of sex and a great collection of photos.
