Men and women alike have had tricks up their sleeves to get the opposite sex in bed for years. Telling one another that sex can relieve headaches, that orgasms help you lose weight, and even that semen is good for your skin.
Well Sex Searchers, we have another thing to add to that list, except this time it’s nothing just something to say to get someone in bed– it’s a fact: Sex can relieve your holiday stress. I guess they were on to something when they said that the best things in life are free!
Professor of Kinesiology at New York City’s Pace University Dr. Sean Gennings has published his findings that having sex during a difficult time in your life can not only be therapeutic, but it can actually physically relieve stress.
