Your Question:

Dear Experts,

I talk and think about SEX all the time... my friends notice it as well... is there something wrong?

Balaman75



The Answer:

Dear Balaman75,

No, there's nothing wrong with you! Having a sex drive and being turned on and wanting to talk about it are normal parts of sexuality. People have different levels of sex drives — some have higher drives and some have lower. In the beginning of adolescence, sexual arousal may seem a little out of control. But after a while, as people become accustomed to sexual arousal, it seems less intrusive and more in their control.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
