Conceptions about sexuality are influenced by several factors, including personal and social attitudes, and expectations and experiences regarding sexuality and sexual behavior. Sexual health requires good physical, mental, and emotional health, as well as a reasonable, respectful attitude toward sexuality.

Although sexuality can be an important(AMBIEN) part of loving, mature, intimate relationships, it also can be a source of significant stress within these relationships. Healthy sexuality involves physical (physiological) and mental (psychological) responses, open communication, and an emotional connection that includes positive feelings and conceptions about sexuality, self-image, and sexual partners. Developing an understanding about the different aspects of human sexuality can help sexual partners achieve and maintain a safe, responsible, healthy, and satisfying sex life.VALIUM
