The first Encounter sexual enhances man's but not picture woman body

Having sex for the first time, you can improve or degrade Your mniemanie depending on whether you are male or female, according to Penn State researchers. Average College age Males become more satisfied with their appearance after the first intercourse, College age females become somewhat less satisfied.

"Already we are talking about a 12-year-old girls having sex, so striking is that, even among those young women-who are 17 or older, where the first had sex-images of themselves decreased," said Eva s. Lefkowitz, Professor of human development and family studies. "If, on average, one feeling worse about yourself, it says something about their development of a healthy sexuality and healthy sense, and when."

Overall, researchers found that women became delighted with their physical appearance from the first to the fourth year in College, and women became less satisfied with their appearance in the same period of time. However, the researchers found the opposite directly after students had sex for the first time-the men were more satisfied with their appearance and females were less satisfied. The researchers reported their results in the current issue of the journal adolescence.

In previous studies, researchers found a positive image of the body may increase risky sexual behaviour in male College students, said Sara a. Vasilenko, Graduate students in human development and family studies.

Vasilenko notes that one of the possible application of this test is that sexuality education programmes to foster a positive image, try body in girls and boys. She said sex education for males should focus on the feelings of Masculinity and how to achieve those feelings without engaging in risky sexual behaviour. Sex education of females could focus on promoting a positive image of the body.

"Guess the existence of many tests at risky sexual behaviors predicts, but not a lot of adolescents and young adults experience their sexual behaviour and what may be some mental health and well-being of its results," said Vasilenko. "Most studies in this area looks at the mental health of sexual behaviour in relation to the results of the earlier equivalent, find that young people who have sex at an early stage, particularly females may have more symptoms of depression. I was interested in whether it would be more positive if individuals transition to sexual behaviour are College age, since it is more prescriptive, a time when most people are sexually active. "

Researchers surveyed 434 students asking for their "attitudes and experiences in relationships with others. All students are traditional freshmen-the age of 17 to 19-at the beginning of the project. Researchers administered the same research to those students four times in the course of a career College. Students surveyed 100 involved in uranium for the first time in four years.

The questionnaire asked participants to evaluate their appearance by rating their agreement with the statements about their overall satisfaction with their appearance. The students also reported that they were not involved in penetration and if they had, the month and year of their first time. Women's satisfaction with their appearance decreased after the first intercourse, while men of satisfaction with appearance increased.

Vasilenko noted that the possible next step, you look at what factors enter first sexual experience, positive or negative for different people. Future research may lead to a better understanding of what contributes to a more positive experience for females.

Also on this research was Nilam Ram, assistant professor of human development and family studies. National Institute of child health and human development financed by this test.
