By Heather • Feb 26, 2022 MD

Being sexy is hard. You have to worry about how you look, act and how to not be embarrassed. I know that when I try to be sexy, I am awkward as hell. I'm not alone … right girls? I can't be alone! So, share some of the awkwardness with me below!

Undressing is Not a Striptease for You – Even if You Hope It is Yep, you've tried to be adventurous but you just look awkward.

***

Sure, in your mind, you're channeling your inner seductress, but the reality looks more like a tangled mess of limbs and hastily removed clothing. You're more likely to trip on your skinny jeans than to pull off a sultry gaze mid-strip. And let's not even talk about the static cling from that supposedly sexy silky top. It's sticking everywhere except where it should. So while you might be aiming for steamy, you end up with a performance that's strictly comedy gold.

***

You've read enough romance novels and watched enough movies to know that sometimes, a little boldness can add spark to the moment. But when you attempt to channel that fierce, seductive energy, it feels like you're wearing someone else's uncomfortable costume. Your version of whispering seductive nothings sounds more like you're discussing the weather, and the come-hither look you've been practicing in the mirror now seems like a weird, squinty glare under the bedroom lights. It's not just awkward; it feels utterly foreign, yet you can't help but giggle at your valiant attempts at vamping it up.
