		<description>It&#039;s an interesting subject. I think most of the problems people have with sex is they make goals out of it. The goal of orgasm and such. People tend to make sex about themselves. I have found sex so much better psychologically and physically more satisfying and heck, more fun if you make it all about the other person. Who cares if you get off? Just put all of your efforts into the other person. Sex needs to be a selfless activity (unless you are making it a solitary activity). People also need to be vocal about what they want, shyness is all too typical. Sex is *so* much more than intercourse. It isn&#039;t the simple seamless act we see so often in movies and television. It is awkward, messy and people need to just get used to it and deal.
My advice, take a human sexualities class, and try not to make sex perfect. Try different things, different situations and have fun.</description>

		<description>I agree that the written word is easier - there is always a spellchecker and thesaurus handy that makes it so much easier to express... unlike trying to verbalize complex feelings and emotions and getting all tongue-tied or running the risk of misunderstanding.  But unlike the isolation of the written word - the spontaneous and unpredictable nature of a verbal exchange can help hone your writing skills... well... at least it will possibly provide more to write about!  (especially when you totally botch a conversation like I do regularly and then use writing as a way to disect where it all went wrong!)  I am happy you&#039;re challenged by your classes - that&#039;s a great feeling!  Love you!
