Almost everyone on earth has some kind of unconscious uneasiness about sex, pleasure or intimacy. We call this Sexual Armoring. The causes of armoring can be vast but it is a way where the body tries to protect itself from traumas and it shows up as protection of one of our basic human need – sex and intimacy.

Sexual armoring comes from past negative experiences. Acute emotional traumas such as the death of a loved one, a bad breakup, witnessing the divorce of parents can cause a person to start putting his guard up. It is during these times when the person starts to feel human attachments hurt too much or love hurts too much and then unknowingly cocoon himself with armoring.

Cumulative emotional traumas such as the day to day grind of reality, family dysfunction, stressful work environment, financial stress can result in armoring as well. Cultural attitudes that repress expressions of sexuality or Hero Complex culture where illusions of perpetual victory cause us to be afraid to admit failure, defeat, feeling depressed or vulnerable prevents us from surrendering to our authentic feelings and natural reflexes. These are also the reasons leading to armoring.

Physical traumas like surgeries and accidents can have a mental traumatic effect on the body which can also result in armoring.

Typical causes for Armoring:

Severely armored individuals unconsciously stand in this way to prevent themselves from feeling pleasure or any kind of emotional sensation.

A person may sexual armoring has a low sense of self worth, self love and lack of inner tranquility. Also a person heavily armored may be inhumane, authoritative and lack morality.
