A number of studies have confirmed what Freud said for a long time - in a sense, sex is present in a person's life from an early age. Moreover, sex and age, of course, influence each other, but not to the same extent as many people think.
When awakened sexuality?
Some scientists even argue that in utero fetus already regard their genitals - however, he hardly is engaged in sexual stimulation. It is much more likely that he simply studying yourself.
However, in some forms of sexuality it is already apparent in infancy. Even in the first days of life babies do not just feel the heat, but also the proximity of the pleasure of physical contact, when they touch the parents when the mother pressed them to her. Sigmund Freud believed that the first notions of sexuality

. But sexuality is rooted not only in the genitals - it is present in almost everything that surrounds man. Because emerging sexuality children often fall in love with the pop stars, actors and teachers. They may not even have an idea about sex as such, but may feel that a grown man would call attraction.
When it begins and when it ends masturbate?
Boys begin to deliberately touch their genitals, on average, when they reach the age of seven. By the beginning of puberty, more than half of boys had tried to masturbate - either alone or while playing with friends (in these games may initially not be a sexual context, and similar games with the same sex does not necessarily talk about the homosexual: it all - stages self-knowledge, which are observed in humans and animals).
Girls usually start masturbating later - only to the end of puberty, and sometimes - in the age of 20 years. By age 16, according to rough data, at least once masturbated 80% of boys and 40% girls.
Experts say that today some of the girls and women believe that if they do not masturbate regularly (during periods when they do not have a sexual partner), it says that with them that something is wrong. It's just a common misconception. In fact, each person is unique, and sexuality in all manifested in different ways.
In general, people are beginning to masturbate less when getting married or when they have an ongoing relationship without marriage. Even more rarely, they do so in adulthood and old age. Nevertheless, it is believed that about 25% of people over 70 years masturbate more or less regularly. Thus, this form of sex accompanies man almost his whole life, even though it still remains one of those rarely discuss even with my closest friends.
When you start a real sex life?
Still, masturbation - it is only a substitute for sex, most teenagers with anxiety, impatience, and often, with fear waiting for its first real sexual experience. According to several studies, to 25 years in the vast majority of people at least once to have sex - heterosexual or homosexual. Only a very small percentage of people keeps her virginity
Virginity - big male myth
until the end of life.
Age of first sexual activity in the last few decades has declined significantly. This trend is observed in most regions of the world, but we will talk only of Europe. In the early years of the 21st century, young people become sexually active on average in 16-17 years. At present, more and more teenagers lose their virginity before they turn 15 years old. This girls are more likely to have sex at an earlier age than boys. In addition, experts say that children from families where there is no father, are more likely to become sexually active before the age of 16 years.
Unfortunately, many young people still ignore the need for contraception, and sexually transmitted diseases through, as well as unplanned pregnancies among minors remain an important issue.
How does the frequency of sexual intercourse with age?
Teens have sex or masturbate, on average, 3-4 times a week. People aged 20 to 30 years old have sex at least three times a week, and older couples 30-40 years - on average twice a week. After 50 years, the frequency of sexual intercourse reduced to once a week or less.
Talking about his sex life, many people make significant exaggeration - this applies to both ordinary people and celebrities. As a result, many young people, and sometimes even adults feel attractive enough, and almost unused inferior by the fact that they do not have sex every day, and do not change partners at least once a month.
In fact, the average person is not a lot of sexual partners - from 5 to 10 for a lifetime, even though polls suggest that in recent years their number is gradually increasing. Some people have only one or two partners. There is also a small percentage of men and women who are very sexually active - they have, in fact, the number of partners can reach several hundred, but such people are very few and they include those for whom sex - a way to earn a living. As a rule, most often people change their sexual partners between the ages of 20 to 30 years; getting older, most people begin to appreciate the ongoing relationship, regardless of whether they come to marry or not.
When a person becomes too old for sex?
Never. Thanks to modern drugs against erectile dysfunction, as well as the promotion of a healthy lifestyle, it becomes more and more people, who continue to be sexually active and, after 70-80 years. Sex can not end because of age, but because of health, which is almost entirely dependent on the person.
