LIBIDO

If there’s a be-all and end-all to sex, it
has got to be Libido. Unless of
course if we’re talking here about
partners with complementary sadistic
and masochistic impulses. But then
again, even pain can be a valid turn on,
and thus, can be a verified libido;
after all, we all have our kicks in life.
In black and white, libido simply
means sexual desire. To a man, it
comes as an erotic arousal and wish
with intense physical or sexual
attraction or craving. Unless of
course if you’ve been hiding under
a rock for the past century of
your life, you would know by
now, and personally felt, how
titillating the juices or libido can be.
However, it is more than just plain
wanton want to have sex, it can also
be classified as the urge to create life.
Only that, it is naturally and more often
manifested through sex. And we all know
that it is not just as simple as it sounds. If we were in the stage of utter pubescence where our raging hormones can’t help but get the better of us, then Libido wouldn’t be such a problem unless it becomes too strong that we have to suppress it.

However, raging hormones do not only apply to adolescents, generally, men are just walking sticks waiting to be stimulated. In fact, the loss of libido is really rare to a man, that is compared to a woman. And when loss of libido does strike, these are often contributed to physical and psychological causes that are common and more often than not, neglected.

If you are one of those who are simply bothered by the seeming lack of urge, then read on. Just bear in mind that its not something that’s totally incurable, or something that you should be embarrassed about. If you do ADIDAS (All Day I Dream About Sex), then maybe that’s when you’ll start worrying. Especially because, more often than not, humping around too much can lead us to fatigue and away from other priorities in life. Other than that, an occasional loss of urge is but natural, whether you have typified yourself as a sex machine or not. This only becomes a problem when there are more frequent bouts of it and if your anxiety about it is leading you away from being a productive worker in the greater scheme of life.

Among the many but physical causes of loss of libido can be attributed to excessive intake of alcohol, abuse use of drugs, anemia, hyperprolactinaemia, prescribed drugs particularly Proscar (finasteride) which is a tablet used for prostate problems, obesity as well as other antidepressants and recreational drugs. You might also experience a lacking urge when you have a low male hormone level, testosterone for male, or any other major 'generalized' disease like as diabetes for instance, whose symptoms can impeded in your optimum sexual performance. On the other hand, the more common issues when it comes to libido are psychologically caused. So all the mumbo-jumbo about mind-over-matter works after all even in sex. Pay more attention to your mental health for it is when you are within the clutches of depression, stress, especially those that are extended over a period of time, overwork, sexual hang-ups, identity crisis like being latent gayness, serious relationship problems with wife or partner are more seriously to be blamed. These are factors which are so easy to say, so commonly occurring but so complex as to be too difficult to solve.

However, not to worry, so far nobody died because of loss of libido, excluding those who are too depress about it they considered suicide. On the other hand, if you are also experiencing this, especially if it has been irritatingly reoccurring for vast periods of time, then take heed. A man has some or more sexual desire, which is the bare truth. Heck, even male animals can’t keep their cojones out of action, just look at how fun the rabbits and dogs can be. If you don’t face the problem then consider yourself being irresponsible especially if you refuse to get help, professional or just even working out a dilemma with your wife or partner. The bottom line is, be proud if you have the urge, be tolerant if it is not as strong as before, but being completely nonchalant about it is like saying that you are not interested in saving yourself from the absolute and complete glory of being a man.
