Understanding the Sexual Self and Relationships

so again good morning uh we will talk about the sexual self so let's yeah last meeting we've talked about uh the physical sales no uh basically extensions So Physical cells more on body image a lifespan no a bit about lifespan so this is a sexual self well uh we're humans and sex is something that is of very important to talk about guys okay so the learning outcomes of this chapter would be to explain the development of sex characteristics and human reproductive system describe the erogenous zones and understand human sexual response understanding attraction love and attachment sexual orientation identify the causes and consequences of STDs and early pregnancy and reflect on the importance of contraception and reproductive health law so uh I will be talking about this in a nonchalant way are informed about this so um and we'll talk about all of this stuff Philippines so an important note of the outset I want to make it clear that When approaching this topic on sexual self it should not be as a biological process but as a prep preparation to entering into this into and sustain an intimate happy and long time relationship in the future so developmental development of sex characteristics in the human reproductive system so as mentioned last time uh maturation nothing usually during adolescent especially starting development of reproductive system though so your primary sex characteristics physical characteristics that are present at first so young primary sex characteristics this is basically the the reproductive system so puberty so what are the secondary sex characteristics so for women the earliest evidence of puberty are the enlargement of breast a menstrual cycle widening of hips enlargement of buttocks and growth of pubic hair testicular growth sperm production appearance of facial and pubic in other body hair and depending of voice are some of the first signs of puberty in men so I think uh usually physically and then as always late Bloomerang depends physiology physiology so foreign experience this no but menstrual cycle I think most of women are experiencing this uh widening of hips and enlargement of buttocks no um and then growth of pubic here growth spurt so in growth spursions puberty during puberty testosterone and other under androgens stimulate the development of primary and secondary sex characteristics and also increases sex drive so uh no um Sex Type they always think about sex okay so um so both male and female and testosterone sex drive or sex drive in fact that is good it means that you're healthy okay so um so in the end it's part of the process [Music] development so the level of testosterone production is fairly constant in women the ovaries reduce estrogen and progesterone by the way young testosterone usually is so in women the ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone as well as small amount of testosterone as I've mentioned so both men and women have sex drive okay so don't misinterpret that means Okay so again if you have any questions just feel free to ask you know uh and estrogen promotes female reproductive capacity and secondary sex characteristics bye-bye and the production of female sex hormones follows a cyclical pattern on approximately 28 day monthly cycle so at a young menstruation so the greatest production occurs during ovulation period when an egg is released from the ovary so in 2018 regarding data which is so it really varies from the person to person so hindisha uh Hindi Universe produce store and release egg cells during ovulation and ovulation can never 14 days after the beginning of the menstrual period so reproductive system is uh so young menstruation unions basically and for 14 days yeah to Bear a child is involved basically and then realize fertilizations okay so basically uh Administration is a way of nature a way of nature to punish you women for not bearing a child okay so that is [Music] basically so um in a way that's how we can see it because and the reproductive system is a system of our sex organs designed for a production or sexual function so the female reproductive system comprises of ovaries and fallopian tube the uterus the vagina and the clitoris reproductive systems but there are times due to some sickness like Picos and so on so again and then fallopians okay so yeah so the theme the male reproductive system Naman includes the penis the testes or the scrotum prostate gland the seminal vesicles and bus difference and the epididymis so wow it's a female endemic explanations it's basically becoming monthly menstruation no um uh continuous production of sperm and cement um during sex or during masturbation um release advances you have to ejaculate at least once a month or at least twice a month or every day system s so next sexual arousal and erogenous zone so what people what turns people on so a human sexual arousal may be produced by direct stimulation of the body's ketogenous zones pleasure okay so uh of course I think you have an idea oh you already have an idea with your elogenous zone so uh you explore this no uh when you were in adolescent especially males because males are very uh explorative with uh with these kinds of uh stuff so what are the erogenous zones so it includes the genitals the mouth the breasts the ears the anus and the lesser degree the entire surface of the body so angerogeneous Zone it's uh it's really different from for most people erogenous zone is of course in genitals okay so in genitals it's either the vagina or the penis uh and then of course your mouth breast ears no and a lesser degree the entire surface of the body uh this applies for both men and women no even some men sometimes they have erogenous zones in their on their breasts no like non-existent yeah and then um or technically have breasts very simple now usually is foreign okay so that is the erogenous zones so one of the most basic sexual stimulation is masturbation or self-stimulation that causes sexual pleasure or orgasm so other sexual activities such as intimate kissing cuddling necking petting or touching the erogenous Zone may be uniquely important to sexual arousal so ETO of course you all know masturbation the man and how it works especially males no so some males they will stimulate their penis and then for females they will stimulate either their vagina or their clitoris uh small smaller version than pennies okay so in penis it's just an enlarged clitoris so it must among terms now uh uh young masturbation of course I'm going an issue orgasm okay so that is uh even tubagapada sex then yeah so my orgasms sexual response cycle yeah and then there are other contrary to popular belief no there are other ways to uh stimulate or to uh give pleasure to yourself or to your partner other than the orgasm itself of course intimate casing no cuddling necking petting or touching erogenous zones may be unique maybe uniquely important to sexual arousal so what uh basically is foreplay okay so uh foreplay is something that is very important you know especially later years it's not only a sexual act it's also a form of intimate no or intimacy you are exploring each other's body or something like that so yeah emphasize especially in the culture of the Philippines where in Hindi mashada uh Philippines so uh actually there are some disorders no more sexual disorders or sexual dysfunction style treatment no foreign or sometimes even premature uh premature ejaculation or delete ejaculation and unusual gigging treatment most of the time they do not do foreplay for so many reasons and one main reason is that they think that sex is very bad so therefore feeling pleasure in a sexual way is something that is uh that is very frowned upon now or something like that no even though even though and one way to uh to recover from that is to actually to do foreplay because four plays also [Music] performance and sometimes in performance anxiety can cause some problems enjoy the process okay so process of intimacy which is foreplay okay so I warned you guys directly and I will not beat around the bush foreign to variations in hormonal levels in humans however hormones play less of a role for example animals usually hormones no every day the sex day if they want it if they are in the mood no and they make consent with each other they can do sex so in one sense the brain is where sexual desire originates and where sexual behavior is controlled so in a way the sex is the biggest the brain is the biggest sexual organ in our body so cognitive factors does play an important role in sexual arousals in humans so culture also influences the expression of sexual desire so culture is very important it's very uh very uh uh very important factor in determining how an expression of sexual desire is expressed for example here in the Philippines we are very conservative so therefore uh the the talk about sex and sexual desire is very conservative there no Hindi is during sex because a majority of our parents nor of our old old people uh don't really talk about it no in an open way with their children Philippines in general but there are some times to say that you're already an adult and you do adult things and one of the adult things that you do is all about sex so means as a culture in a very uh very restrictive when it talks when it talks about sex so again cognitive factors in uh display an important role in sexual arousals in in humans so imagination is really a big factor in the sexual arousals in humans right so now what are the phases of sexual response so um sexual activities so see William Masters and Virginia Johnson's actually these two are sex therapists foreplay as a treatment for sexual dysfunction so in explaining response cycle so uh they use the term sexual response cycle to describe the changes that occur in the body as men and women become sexually adults so that they divide the sexual response cycle into four phases excitement or arousal plateau and orgasm and resolution so excitement introduction Plateau rising action orgasms climax no and then resolution issue after math climax so so the excitement phase uh is beginning of the sexual arousal and can last from one minute to several hours actually very pulse rate increases uh blood pressure increases breathing weekends and the skin shows Rosy flush particularly on the chest and breasts during this phase no so these nipples are hardened and erect in both men and women and in men the penis becomes erect the skin of the thickens and the test is increase in size so in women the clitoris swells the lips of the vagina open and the inside of the vagina moistens in preparation for sexual intercourse but of course [Music] uh and then the clitoris and then the lips of the vagina open so much and then at the same time so this is in preparation of course for the insertion of the penis in the vagina lubricated of course excited sexually speaking uh it's very painful okay lubricated okay so in the blood blue phase the man the changes are uh the changes in the body continued in men penis becomes more effect the circumference of its head increases and releases a few drops of fluid semen so in women the outer part of the vagina swells with increased amount of blood to that area uh while the clitoris retracts under the clitoral hood but remains highly sensitive so the outer lips of the vagina becomes redder in color and breathing becomes more rapid heart rate increases but the temperature rises and blood pressure increases during this stage stimulation sexually speaking so it means intercourse penetration uh and then during the organ they actually like you know Plateau Plateau face activity of insertion of penis in the vagina so during the orgasmic phase the orgasmic construction of the mass muscles and in and around the penny stimulate the release of the semen which contains the sperm cells so men usually achieve one in 10 sargasm so an orgasm it's different for Millions males and females so some males one shot long one time Big Time okay so once again and then you [ __ ] uh very pleasurable feelings amen and then in women orgasm involves the contraction of the pelvic muscles that surround the vaginal walls and can happen multiple times so not only once not only twice even sometimes five times depending so the 10 days activities Independence skill no Partners so in a way um uh five to uh 10 minutes [Music] the color of the outer lives of the vagina and the lips of the vagina they turn to its normal state but as I mentioned it it happens more gradually compared to men Okay so we have any questions regarding the human sexual response okay so of course I'm not encouraging you to do this no I'm just informing you no so once again because it's very important that you are on the same page with your partner because foreign [Music] about sex because that's very different okay uh Hindi be unrealistic all right so okay so next we talk about uh attraction love and attachment so during adolescence uh dating in courtship emerge and become increasingly important so puberty is the stage when many boys and girls experience their first sexual attraction so romantic love is especially important among college students College destruction [Laughter] so attraction is a positive attitude held by one person towards another person attractions so attraction can happen instantly love is something that is uh build upon and then attachment is also is also the same so attraction this is the first stage you you like him or her whenever you see them you are feeling good you're feeling uh you're feeling euphoric even no you're feeling inspired attracted words foreign [Music] exchange so see Robert Sternberg millions that there are three components of Love intimacy passion and commitment so the intimacy component refers to the feelings of closeness connectedness and bondness uh so this is uh friends no friendship type no and uh closeness and bondedness first component and the next component is your passion which is very physical no sexual consummation so young passionate guys uh very romantic very physical young attraction and then lastly is your commitment so the first to the decision so excuse me so decision to love and the commitment to maintain that love so long then congrats love of your life no for example the attachment no so attachment passion no maybe passion it means attachment I mean so commitment uh commitment and uh WB Friends with Benefits okay so an idea Lister but president commitment and then intimacy is the same time lovers scale at the same time uh companion scale for life no so that is the let's just say the ideal version of uh how love should should be outside your uh romantic relationship can you talk about other other things just like as friends no foreign romantic stuff but anyway it's it's different from everybody commitment but I think it's better not to have this all of these three two so that must mugging uh rewarding young relationship okay so do you have any questions okay so next we will talk about sexual orientation so sexual orientation refers to a person's sexual and romantic is interest uh either people of the opposite sex or people of the same sex so the most common sexual orientation is heterosexual in which people are sexually attracted to members of the opposite sex so sexual orientation is different from gender [Music] sexual orientation which can be either heterosexual homosexual or bisexual lesbian gay male and female that was of course sometimes [Laughter] um males and females and their sexual orientation so uh forgive me of my ignorance of those genders so I have a simple brain I cannot keep up but anyway so sexual orientation most common sexual orientation is some Hotel heterosexual no uh although of course Daniel homosexual so homosexual orientation when we are attracted to the people with the same body uh same uh same sex so let's for example [Music] that is a gay man it's funny because even in these kinds of relationships homosexual relationship for example so gay um same with uh lesbians bye Dynamics no okay as I mentioned at the same time problems okay so uh uh sexual orientation especially the homosexual orientation is really a unique uh unique uh relationship or unique style of relationship that uh actually before and even it's uh it's frowned upon or even actually punishable young homosexual uh activities so sad but of course uh here in the Philippines at least homosexuality okay so bisexual people women are attracted to both men and women and then in transgender are uh transgenderism again lesbian some are transgender they are they feel like they are trapped in another gender in another sex spot in another sexy trap transgender so uh some of them no they seeks exchange operation but of course before namakaranas exchange operation psychologically financially and even socially no so yeah processed supposedly people they they feel like they are trapped in the other opposite sex in the body of the opposite sex so transsexual people are those whose genitals are surgically removed in our Fashions as genitals of the desired gender so once that is transsexual people now okay transsexual okay so transgender will happen exchange operations hormonal therapy and uh Hindi transsexual transgender potential exchange operation which is biological in nature I am transsexual okay so you have any questions regarding this uh sexual orientations okay it's okay next is Young sbis no it's actually transmitted infections and early pregnancy pregnancy so sexually transmitted infections or STDs are diseases that are contracted primarily through sexual contact so sdis are increasing health problems some STIs affect the sex organs themselves whereas others have broader and life-threatening effects so for example AIDS all right so the bacterial infections are treatable with antibiotics bacterial bacterial infections like uh syphilis syphilis is also known as tulo genital warts even uh they can be it's actually on pering genital warts caused by viruses compared to HIV or Aids so uh human bacterial infections okay so antibiotics and then STIs commonly include human immunodeficiency virus or HIV acquired immunode deficiency syndrome which is AIDS gonorrhea etogonorrhea bacterial bacterial syphilis bacterial chlamydia it's also bacterial genital herpes is uh herpes is herpes if I I'm not sure if Byron by the way viral infections a bacterial infection bacterial infection is caused by bacteria which are living organisms that are larger than viruses virus on the other hand are rnas usually or DNA is like for example coronaviruses immune system and then some will cause death but anyway so in HIV and AIDS and it's uh viral infections and HIV is actually targeting the immune system so HIV usually that is already terminal no uh maintenance progress no HIV okay so anyone who is sexually active is at risk to sexually transmitted infection so hence sexually active persons should practice safe sex so uh sexually active actually that's not the case because if you are sexually active you know sex drive or biologically speaking to become sexually active in fact is to actually teach this sexually active person to practice safe sex okay so using condoms no for males and even females no so some of our females not very active they must always bring their uh their own condom Partners [Music] no more bacterial infection even HIV Okay so safe sex but of course it is important to remember that not having sex can be the safest sex method to avoid all forms of sexually transmitted infections as well as other sexual problems such as early pregnancy reproductive control method [Music] um STI or STDs or even testing is nothing is 100 percent guys 100 safe or something like that you know so it's really important consequences abstinence well that knowing human beings no abstinence is not effective okay abstinence is uh indeed India work no uh even pulling out no him pulling out Alani pulling out loud but it's not safe it's not effective okay so if you want safe sex bring some condom all right uh but of course [Music] uh because again there are some consequences that's just some early pregnancy and being pregnant or blessing coping mechanism it's hard okay problems no so so one way to uh to avoid early pregnancy is the use of contraception so this refers to the methods that are used to prevent pregnancy some methods of contraception such as condom can be used no and used to prevent them STIs so other common available uh contraception is Young e IUD or intrauterine device birth control injection withdrawal method which I do not recommend uh and then calendar method calendar method works when the the the female is regular and as I've mentioned menstruation so young cervix usually by checking clear if I'm not mistaken but clearly vagina excuse me I'm not sure so correct me if I'm wrong and then the Billings method I'm not familiar with the buildings method uh but yeah don't call in their method no it's not that effective because foreign guarantees to universal access to methods of contraception fertility control sexual education and maternal care so RH bill or archlo provides for prevention and treatment of HIV AIDS and other STIs or STDs foreign especially women well informed about available plan Family Planning methods that they can really use depending on their needs so as well uh it aims to promote adolescent in youth health and propagate information and sexuality and reproducting health a reproductive Health through proper care and sex education because sex education is still the uh most uh effective way you know to prevent uh sexual television infections and diseases and also early pregnancy your sex when in fact actually it's it's the opposite because biological processes options available if Everman active and then foreign about sexual self you know do you have any questions but in mind or do you have any clarifications foreign so it allows insertion but it doesn't allow young pulling out but in condom that was uh foreign [Music] talaga but um okay so if concerns clarification I think uh we're done so I will stop the recording
