When it comes to the holidays, the quality of your sex life really can go either way. Spending time with your family might mean you're having less sex — either you're away from your significant other, relegated to separate bedrooms, or if you're single, you might be sequestered from the dating world. And it's hard to get in the mood if you're feeling lazy after a big holiday meal.

But the holidays also offer an opportunity to spice up your sex life along with your eggnog. All the cheer might make you appreciate your lover a little bit more, or maybe you have some time off to go on a romantic vacation before the new year. Not to mention, all those holiday parties might help you make a new love connection!
