Women’s Health featured an article recently listing 18 reasons to have more sex! We know you don’t need more convincing, but we thought we’d share some of the reasons that directly affect you guys! Check out the entire list HERE, and take a look at our personal favourite reasons to do it more often:

1. Your Heart - Shag your guy’s ticker into shape. According to a study at Queens University in Belfast, men who have sex three or more times a week can cut their risk of heart attack in half.

According to that same study, regular romps will also halve your man’s chances of suffering a stroke.

2. Kick colds to the curb. Researchers at Wilkes University in Pennsylvania found that having sex once or twice a week boosts the immune system by 30 percent.

3. Protect your pearly whites by stepping up to the mic. Semen contains zinc, calcium, and other minerals proven to fight tooth decay. (Only trace amounts, but who’s counting?)

4. Give your guy a helping hand. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, the more he ejaculates, the less likely he is to develop prostate cancer.

5. Sex makes you happier than having money does, according to a recent study by the National Bureau of Economic Research.

A marriage that included regular humping was figured to bring the same levels of happiness as earning an extra $100,000 annually.

It really is a happy hump day!

This is so interesting, and explains so much! When it comes to sex, according to a new CNN report, you fall under one of two categories. You’re either a ‘comfort creature’ or you’re a ‘thrill seeker’. Depending on which category you fall under, it could say a lot about how compatible you are with your mate.

As you probably already guessed, ‘comfort creatures’ enjoy routine and rarely switch things up in bed. ‘Thrill seekers’ want to try something new, now! You are most compatible with a like minded lover, so if you’re into routine then your partner should be too. However, that does sound like your bedroom would be extremely boring…but whatever floats your boat.

When different styles meet up under the sheets, it’s all good, at first. Things are exciting and fresh and you’re eager to explore. However, if it turns into a long term relationship your separate styles could be a problem.

Not to say you are doomed if you are in separate categories, it just means you need to talk more openly about what works for you and what you’re looking for in the bedroom!
