Believe it or not, the ability to have a giggle when something embarrassing happens during the most intimate moments of your life (in this case sexx, but it could be anything) is a strong indicator of how close your bond is with your partner. For most women, sex is one of the most bond affirming actions there is; even the most jaded woman can be moved to feel something during this act; and the same goes for men. However, the true indication of trust in a relationship is not only the ability of both partners to strip naked and sweat together, but also to laugh embarrassing things off when they happen.

Sexx is an odd sort of practice if you stop and think about it and there are many potentially embarrassing moments. For men, there's the fear of being too soft, premature ejaculation, or just pulling on his partner's hair by accident. For women, there are fears such as too much pubic hair (why do you think we subject ourselves to shaving and waxing?), weird odours, and of course, the ever present fear of making strange noises while having sexx. These fears actually make some men and women refuse to have sex with each other, or get it over with very quickly so as to not run the risk of embarrassment. It can also lead many couples not to experiment and so their sex life becomes very stale. But letting the potential for embarrassing yourself limit your sex life is very detrimental to your strength as a couple so it's very important to learn how to laugh off the embarrassment.

Laughing off the things that happen does not mean be cruel or mean or act as though these things don't matter. These fears are real and for the one fearing them, quite tangible. Certainly they're enough to put many couples off of certain sexxual activities! The ability to laugh while having sex means learning how to get past the fears of doing something that may seem gross or possibly embarrassing so as to experiment more freely and for that to happen, a couple really has to trust each other. This trust comes from communication, being gentle with each other, and from having known each other for a while-which is why most counsellors advise getting to know each other before that first night in. And when something does happen that could be awkward, the partner that didn't do it has to be supportive, light-hearted, and not judgmental. This makes it much easier for the other person to laugh it off, as it were. If both partners can get some giggles out of it, then do so; it will increase those feel good hormones and make you feel closer as a couple.

When you are with someone you trust and love, then nothing you do or don't do, will be able to put him or her off for long! Remember: in order to have the best sexx of your life, you have to have trust, affection, and sometimes a good sense of humor!
