Sex has gotten so serious these days. In an attempt to make things sexier and hotter, I feel like we’ve lost our capability to smile and laugh during sex. Sex should be fun. Not just intense and emotional. It should be lighthearted and silly—not all the time. But at least, sometimes. Right? So for all of you who think sex requires a pout, here are 10 reasons why you need to laugh more during sex.
1. It can break the ice

Maybe one or both of your is feeling a little nervous. Maybe one or both of you is doing this for the first time. Or, maybe one or both of you just does something totally embarrassing. Laughing can break the ice and keep the mood light instead of focusing on anything that may go wrong.
2. It establishes a better connection

Laughing can trigger your brain's endorphin system, and doing so can create a better bond between you and your partner. Who doesn't want to have a deeper connection?
3. Laughing is contagious

Maybe you feel weird if you start laughing, but the moment he does too, it'll all be worth it. Plus, as mentioned above, laughing is also a bonding technique, so if the two of you start up and keep going, it could actually bring you closer together.
4. Awkward things happen during sex

Laughter is a form of feedback. And it’s good feedback. It not only means they’re enjoying themselves, it means they’re comfortable with you.

You know how your head gets a little light-headed after a laughing fit? It’s because more oxygen reaches your brain. Having a serious laughing fit during sex can actually make you feel euphoric.
8. Hot and heavy sex all the time is exhausting

Especially if it’s your first time having sex with this person, you can be nervous. You want to perform well. When you and he are smiling/laughing, it takes the pressure off. It allows you to loosen up and enjoy yourself.
