blood sugar sex magic

It was rather silly as conversations go… but it threw up a certain point that left me wondering…


Last night I had a conversation with an old friend whose been acting a little weird for a while… I was getting worried bout the mental condition of said friend who, although has been declared certifiably insane by my opinion a number of times... had lately been behaving in a manner that made me wonder if a trip to the much abused hospital in shahadara was actually required..



Well… after a lot of cajoling and “you know I won’t judge you”ing on my part the truth was revealed… what my friend was suffering from was, put plainly a bad case of sexual frustration… to put it in an even plainer manner… sheer frustration at the lack of a sex life..



Predictably, my reaction to that little revelation was a rather loud giggle… and a “oh my god you did not just say that…”

Then I stopped laughing... and started thinking..



Does the “lack thereof” really affect your mood and behaviour?????



Do men and women react differently to this deprivation? Coz this friend is a guy.. and I don’t agree with his hypothesis that the “lack” and the resulting frustration gets you down..



I mean… sure… lack of physical activity and excitement can very well get your dopamine levels down and get you feeling low… but downright depressed???????



Or is it not just the sex but all the attendant romance and relationship.. or the lack thereof that really gets you down?



I mean… in most bio books.. air, water and food are accompanied by sex in the “Must Get to Survive” list…
