Robert Whitfield MD argues that society's male-centered view of sexuality makes women feel broken. He says extending your sex span improves health span and longevity, and that pleasure is your birthright, not something to earn through weight loss first.

Really, what I want to do is I want to caveat it by saying that pretty much everything that we see as women in the world is through the male lens of what sexuality is. And that is a shame, because most women are running around thinking that their libido is broken, they've lost their desire. They are. They're too fat to have sex. She recently posted a poll on Instagram and it said, would you rather learn about passionate intimacy or would you rather learn about how to lose ten pounds? And most people would rather learn to lose ten pounds than to learn about passion and intimacy. And yet, having pleasure, intimate connection, ecstasy, bliss, satisfaction of our intimate connection will actually extend your health span. When you extend your sex span, you extend your health span. When you extend your health span, you live a longer and happier life when it's done through extending your sex span. You know, like, there's so many reasons to give yourself the pleasure, but one of the things, if it's offline, if your breasts are offline, you're missing a third of the pleasure that is your birthright. Everything about you is perfect. You're perfect right now. Nobody cares about your belly fat or your cellulite or one boob's bigger than the other, anything. None of that matters.
