Did you know marriages fail at a considerable percentage in this country because of the lack of proper sex education? In the context of Bangladesh, sex education has a horrible image. It is so as we’re a very conservative nation.

Besides, there is no professional to teach our students about sex education. It is more likely left on nature’s hand or learning from surroundings.

Most of the time, this learning is dangerous because it comes from pornography. But unfortunately, there is no such education in pornography; instead, there is a bunch of misinformation to mislead the generation.

A person without sex education plans on getting married; educating them about it is vitally important.

It is humanly impossible for a general person to gather immense knowledge. So, here we’ve selected and briefed some essential factors everybody should learn about sex education.

Subjects Of Sex Education That General People Should Have Basic Idea About

Sex education is a massive basket of knowledge. Although having a deeper understanding of it is necessary. But everyone can’t get through each of them.

So, let’s explore some of the most critical factors about sex education that can lead you to a better married life.

Understanding Performance Anxiety

Performance anxiety is prevalent among many married couples. When a person finally gets married, they face a lot of questions in their mind.

So, while participating in intercourse, performance anxiety hits them, and they can’t perform as expected. As a result, being unable to perform well leads them to further confusion and fear.

If a person is educated about performance anxiety and learns how to deal with it, their sexual relationship and overall relationship with their partner becomes healthier.

Recognizing The Subtle Line Between Fantasy And Reality

A person’s sexual interest develops in their teenage times. As sex education in our society is not well practiced, most people learn it from pornography. Although the intake is not proper, people consume it and develop fantasies.

At some point, many people mix up their fantasy and reality. Whatever is being presented in pornography or other medium is not reality. But a person indulging in such entertainment refuses to accept it.

That’s how a misconception occurs in their minds and grows with them. But unfortunately, when it comes to marriage, because of unnatural desires or fantasies, conflicts arise between husband and wife.

Lastly, it ends up in a rough patch, sometimes leading to divorce.

With proper sex education, a person understands what is expected and abnormal. Thus, it helps married couples understand each other’s needs more clearly and have a happy married life.

Accepting The Difference In Sexual Response Between Men And Women

Sexual response is different in the case of men and women. However, as general people, we don’t understand it very well. Therefore, it can result in a bad sexual relationship and emotional connection between the husband and wife.

A proper sex education guideline can eradicate this problem pretty well.

Knowing The Basic Diseases

Anybody can face some common sexual diseases like premature ejaculation for men or painful intercourse for women. These issues are enough to kill the happiness of your sexual relationship and emotional relationship as well.

It is mainly seen that couples blame each other for stuff like this. Where else the truth is proper sex education, and medication can treat it well.

Medication And Psycho-Sexual Disease Counseling In Sex Education

The first step to overcoming the problems of your not-so-happy sexual life with your partner is to seek professional help. Professionals can help you out either with medication or Psycho-Sexual Disease Counseling.

Sometimes, doctors can prescribe both medication and counseling if needed. But you have to have the courage and take the step to seek professional help.

In a social context, you may think having a baby can resolve your marriage issues. But, think about the more prominent part once. Your first emotional bonding still is not strong enough because of your unbalanced sexual life.

You need to fix these things first and think about the future later.

Adverse Effects Of Not Having Proper Sex Education

You could see some adverse effects in your relationship if you don’t seek professional help on time. In most cases, because of sexual problems, couples don’t communicate well, creating distance between themselves.

Sometimes, they get into extramarital affairs for pleasure, which is horrible for a family.

Wrap Up

A proverb always goes, `Prevention is better than cure`. The same goes for healthy sex education for married life. But, unfortunately, from Bangladesh’s social context, it is impossible to educate our people well on sex education overnight.

So, as individuals, we have to take small steps and step out from the boundaries of myths and reluctance about sex education. Besides seeking professional help for yourself, educate others.
