In this world ravaged with dirty and abusive sex, is there a way to be able to identify the difference between healthy and abusive sex? Though most people as of today have done the act of lovemaking, it is also vital to maintain a healthy sexuality. In order to know which type of sexuality you have, here is the comparison which I have grasped from healthyplace.com.
| Sexual Abuse and Addiction | Healthy Sex |
| Sex is uncontrollable energy | Sex is controllable energy |
| Sex is an obligation | Sex is a choice |
| Sex is addictive | Sex is a natural |
| Sex is hurtful | Sex is nurturing, healing |
| Sex is a condition for love or devoid of love | Sex is an expression of love |
| Sex is “doing to” someone | Sex is sharing with someone; sex is a part of who I am |
| Sex is void of communication | Sex requires communication |
| Sex is secretive | Sex is private |
| Sex is exploitative | Sex is respectful |
| Sex is deceitful | Sex is honest |
| Sex benefits one person | Sex is mutual |
| Sex is emotionally distant | Sex is intimate |
| Sex is irresponsible | Sex is responsible |
| Sex is unsafe | Sex is safe |
| Sex has no limits | Sex has boundaries |
| Sex is power over someone | Sex is empowering |
| Sex requires a double life | Sex enhances who you really are |
| Sex compromises your values | Sex reflects your values |
| Sex feels shameful | Sex enhances self esteem |
Now you have read the factors in determining healthy sex from abusive sex, you must think deeply for this is very important. A healthy sexuality is an integral part of our well being. The act of lovemaking must not be something that is lewd, dirty or immoral rather, it must be something thought of as a way to strengthen the bond between you and your partner, something that the two of you can enjoy and not something to be abhorred.
