Virgins, virginity and celibacy. In this episode the topic deviates from the usual experience of sex to instead focus on the experience of not yet having it yet. Why do people abstain for having sex, and is such a thing biologically possible? Is sex a need or a want, and could masturbation be sufficient to suppress desire or satisfy libido permanently? Anthony shares situations from the television series, “Married At First Sight” where emotions and companionship might be troublesome in making the decision to marry someone, and if people are on the show to get laid or to find true life partners. Plus, the differences in the intricacies of sexuality for men and women - do men have a more basic need for it while women require and enjoy an emotional connection from it more than the sex itself? Listen to the episode to learn more about why people abstain from sex for religious reasons or otherwise, and where does sex rank in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
