Why is adolescence overly obsessed with the opposite sex? What are the psychological benefits of heterosexual communication

During adolescence, 'the beginning of a romantic relationship' is a normal adolescent reaction, and at this stage, heterosexual contact can have certain benefits both physically and mentally, just like oneself. However, one should not excessively indulge in heterosexual infatuation.

Why is adolescence overly obsessed with the opposite sex

One is the drive of natural instincts: as men and women enter puberty, the development of the hypothalamus, pituitary, and reproductive organs gradually matures, and the levels of androgens produced by the male testes and estrogen produced by the female ovaries increase. The change of hormone level causes a series of growth and development characteristics in adolescence, which is called "Secondary sex characteristic" in medicine, thus producing the driving force of sex. This driving force, like positive and negative charges, plays a role in attracting the opposite sex, causing young men and women to develop a favorable impression of the opposite sex. This is a sign of the increasingly mature development of sexual physiology and a normal physiological response.

The second is the infiltration and induction of social information: a person is constantly influenced by sexual culture from a young age to the majority. In real life, it is full of emotional exchanges between the opposite sex, such as love, marriage, and childbearing of young men and women in friends and relatives, neighbors; Especially in movies, TV shows, dramas, newspapers, and magazines, the descriptions of love are vivid, realistic, sincere, and touching, often reflecting on the eyes and minds of young people, which is enough to intoxicate young men and women, and occasionally stimulate their vague imitation and awakening of sexual emotions.

The third is the catalysis of external beauty and internal beauty: the opposite sex that teenagers love has a process from universality to specificity. Generally speaking, teenagers like to display their appearance, posture, knowledge, talents, and excellent qualities in front of the opposite sex, and their aesthetic appreciation of the opposite sex is mainly manifested in two aspects: external beauty and internal beauty. The love of beauty is universal, and it is human nature to love beauty. Some people say that people can't even control themselves from looking more at the attractive opposite sex. It can be seen how attractive beauty is - its power. It can also promote the generation and development of teenagers' favoritism towards the opposite sex.

The five psychological benefits of heterosexual communication

1、 Mutual assistance in career: With the development of society, people's dedication to career has greatly increased, and they generally aspire to achieve success in a certain aspect or field to achieve personal value. If there is a female writer's lover who is a researcher at a research institute and knows nothing about creativity, although she supports her creativity, she cannot provide specific guidance or assistance. She made friends with several writers of the opposite sex, and they gathered regularly to improve their creative skills through mutual discussion. Making friends of the opposite sex like this is mostly a "bird on a tree", getting to know each other for a common cause and deepening friendships through career progress. Here, a person not only receives specific help, but also receives recognition and encouragement from the opposite sex, enhancing their confidence. In recent years, the rise of various salons and small social gatherings has adapted to the need for choosing friends, and many people have made acquaintances of the opposite sex here.
