Top Myths About Sexual Wellness You Should Stop Believing

Top Myths About Sexual Wellness You Should Stop Believing

Sexual wellness is often misunderstood. Many people believe false things. These myths spread confusion and shame. Some even stop people from protecting themselves. At Royal Intimacy, we care about truth and safety. We believe every person deserves comfort and care. That’s why we’re here to clear the air.

Let’s go through common myths and replace them with facts.


Myth 1: You only need protection from strangers

This is false. Protection is not about trust. It's about health. Even long-term partners can carry infections without knowing. Sexual health needs regular care. Not just in new relationships. A safe sex kit is helpful for every partner. It shows care and responsibility.

Include things like flavored condoms, cleansing wipes, and a gentle wash. They help both partners feel safe and respected.


Myth 2: You don’t need to clean up after sex

Skipping clean-up can cause problems. After sex, the skin can carry bacteria, sweat, or residue. Leaving it there can lead to irritation. Use a daily body wash made for sensitive skin. It should be soft, pH-friendly, and unscented.

If you’re not near a shower, keep individually wrapped sex wipes nearby. One wipe can help you feel clean and avoid discomfort.


Myth 3: Condoms ruin intimacy

Condoms don’t have to be boring or uncomfortable. They come in many types today. Some are ultra-thin. Others are designed for extra pleasure. Flavored condoms make things more playful. They also protect during oral sex. Strawberry is one of the most loved flavors.

Protection and pleasure can go together. You just need the right tools.


Myth 4: You can tell if someone is healthy

You can’t tell if someone has an STI by looking. Many infections show no signs at all. They can still spread through touch or fluid.

So don’t skip protection because someone “seems clean.” Use your safe sex kit. Talk openly and stay tested. Also, practice personal hygiene. Use gentle, intimate products to keep your skin balanced and safe.


Myth 5: Sexual wellness is only for women

This belief is outdated. Everyone deserves good sexual health—men, women, and all genders.  Sex wipes, for example, are great for all people. They remove bacteria and help you stay fresh.  Good care is not about gender. It's about being clean, protected, and confident.


Myth 6: Oral sex is safe without protection

This is another dangerous myth. Many STIs can spread during oral sex. Using nothing at all is a big risk.

Flavored condoms are made for this. They taste good and still offer full safety. Try different flavors until you find one you like. Protection should never be skipped.


Myth 7: Trust means you don’t need protection

Even in love, safety matters. Some infections take weeks or months to appear. Trust doesn't replace testing or hygiene. If you care for each other, you’ll stay careful too. Keep a safe sex kit ready, no matter how long you've been together.

That shows love and smart planning.


Myth 8: Sex should always be spontaneous

Spontaneity looks great in the movies, but in real life, it's not the same. The good times happen with preparation. Planning leaves room for comfort and permission. Make your wipes, condoms, and cleaning wash in an easy-to-reach location.

Having them on hand doesn't kill the mood. It makes it safer and easier.


Myth 9: All condoms feel the same

That’s not true anymore. Condoms now come in many types—thin, textured, or flavored. If you dislike one type, try another. Strawberry flavored condoms are smooth, tasty, and fun. You may be surprised how much you enjoy them.

Don’t give up on condoms—try a better fit.


Myth 10: Soap is sufficient for intimate care

This is dangerous. Soaps used every day usually contain strong chemicals. They can disrupt the natural chemistry of your intimate skin.

Rather, opt for an intimacy-based body wash. It should be free of abrasive scents and rich in calming agents.


Myth 11: Toys don’t need cleaning if used alone

Solo-use toys also harbor bacteria. Skin cells, sweat, and lubricant can remain on them. Always clean toys after use. Clean with warm water or safe cleansers. You can also clean them with sex wipes in an emergency.


Myth 12: Talking about sex is awkward

Silence can cause confusion, errors, and hurt. Speak up about what you enjoy. Speak up about what you require. And speak about comfort and safety. That's where safe sex kits come in. They provide the opportunity for improved habits.

Open and honest conversation results in improved experiences for both parties.
