Key Quotes

Dr. Chiang Pei-chang

"In medicine, there is no definitive answer regarding frequency, whether three times a week or once a month. If both parties are satisfied and not pressured, it is considered appropriate frequency."

ในทางการแพทย์ ไม่มีคำตอบตายตัวเกี่ยวกับความถี่ ไม่ว่าจะสัปดาห์ละ 3 ครั้ง หรือเดือนละ 1 ครั้ง หากทั้งสองฝ่ายรู้สึกพึงพอใจและไม่มีความกดดัน ก็ถือว่าเป็นความถี่ที่เหมาะสมแล้ว

Dr. Chiang Pei-chang

"Each couple has a different life rhythm. Comfort and naturalness are always more important than trying to meet a number."

คู่รักแต่ละคู่มีจังหวะชีวิตที่แตกต่างกัน ความสบายใจและความเป็นธรรมชาติสำคัญกว่าการพยายามทำให้ได้ตามตัวเลขเสมอ
