In our society, it is easy to develop unrealistic expectations, especially in regards to sex; this often includes a misconception of what our sex life is “meant” to look like.  Misconceptions affect so many individuals and couples.  I am sure at some point you have even had the thought, “I bet ___________ (fill in with anything related to sex) is unusual for other people… I wonder if we’re the only ones who have experienced this.”  Many sexual misconceptions occur because our society is so orgasmic centric.  Two misconceptions that are very popular are the ideas that orgasm is a requirement for sexual activity and that simultaneous orgasm can and should be achieved on a regular basis.
