Birthday S*x Is Ideally Better Than Regular S*x...
Most people are psychologically primed to have a higher s*x drive on their birthday," Our perspective is that birthdays in effect give us permission to be the center of attention, be given gifts, and make special requests." The expectation of a celebration combined with the potential for more s*xual attention than usual can actually lead to you having a higher s*x drive on your birthday. Birthdays also provide a unique opportunity to embrace your s*xuality, and can be an excuse to mention moves or fantasies you've always wanted to try. Having a birthday provides the perfect context to break out of the norm, and expect special treatment, s*xually and otherwise.
Of course, women who have had birthday s*x have differing opinions and experiences.
FOR THIS GIRL, BIRTHDAY S*X IS JUST PART OF THE BIGGER CELEBRATION.
Yes, I do think birthday s*x is better than regular, everyday s*x. You can have s*x as much as you want because it's your birthday, and you're usually happier so it seems better. Plus, the other person might give you presents. So it's a whole day of being happy, getting presents, and having a lot of s*x. Unless you're too drunk — then it might not happen.

THIS GIRL ENJOYS THE FACT THAT BIRTHDAY S*X MAKES HER NEEDS A PRIORITY.
My girlfriend and I do offer each other birthday s*x. We have a really healthy s*x life and so we have always kind of been into celebratory s*x (holidays, graduations, accomplishments). What I love about birthday s*x is that, at least for someone who is in a healthy and fulfilling consensual s*xual relationship, it can be a part of the whole package. I would say that the s*x isn't necessarily better. My favorite kind of s*x is actually unexpected s*x, when you aren't intentionally necessarily planning it but you both feel really passionate and it just ends up happening. But what I like about birthday s*x is that it has this intent behind it. There are weeks when we struggle to hang out, much less have long, passionate, intentional s*x. That's just the way it happens when life gets in the way at times. I love that birthday s*x is an opportunity to make s*x — and my s*xual desires — a priority.

If birthday s*x is something you want to try, then by all means, go for it. "Because it's socially acceptable to have good birthday s*x, it's a great opportunity to go for it, perhaps try things that you’ve been wanting to but usually don't have the guts to mention to your partner, or make more time for s*x that day," says What's Next.
Take her advice and "let the birthday s*x you had spill over into everyday life," because why the heck not?
