Sexual Health Being an erotophobe or erotophile can impact your sexual health. It was found that one's level of erotophobia influences their likelihood of engaging in sexual health care, like breast self-exams (BSE). Usually, erotophobes are the victims of negative sexual messaging or experiences growing up. Survivors of sexual abuse and trauma may be, understandably, erotophobic. For them, sex has come to mean something painful, hateful, or hurtful. <table class="ae_noborder" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="200" align="left" border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td><img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jan/05ero3.jpg" border="0" />u00a0</td></tr></tbody></table> Any erotophobe may feel sexually restricted by the religious and societal norms, mores, restrictions, and taboos that seek to regulate our sex lives. All of these factors make it very difficult for them to sexually connect with their partner. But, erotophiles tend to have received positive messages about sex while growing up. Some may have had or have a partner who has a healthy outlook on sex - something that has rubbed off. They may also feel sexually enlightened owing to positive sexual experiences and sex education. <a href="http://www.mid-day.com/relationships/2011/jan/050111-erotophilic-erotophobic-sexual-views1.htm">Previous</a>u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0 <a href="http://www.mid-day.com/relationships/2011/jan/050111-erotophilic-erotophobic-sexual-views.htm">First</a>
