I'm like, the negative is 206 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 4: that he's young. They are just things that life experiences, 207 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: no matter what career you're in, and like the life 208 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 4: that he gets to live and see, you just don't 209 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 4: have the life experience that I. 210 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: Have quite yet. 211 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 4: And he's very intelligent, but a book cannot teach you 212 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 4: life experience. 213 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 2: So no, he's not on pause. He's not on pause. OHI, well, 214 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 2: I love this. 215 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: I can't wait to continue the conversation. But I'm very 216 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 3: excited because we have a guest that I've been wanting 217 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 3: to talk to. I finished one of his books and 218 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 3: now I'm halfway through another book, and it's doctor Ian Kerner, 219 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 3: and he's a licensed psychotherapist. He is a nationally recognized 220 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 3: sex therapist and a New York Times best selling author. Okay, 221 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 3: the title of his book, are you ready for this? 222 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:19,719 Speaker 2: Yeah?

And then his newer book 226 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 3: is so tell Me About the Last Time You had Sex? Okay, 227 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: And that's more about intimacy. It's I'm super excited. This 228 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 3: is going to be a great conversation. Did you read 229 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: the coms first? Of course I did, obviously, obviously, And 230 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 3: that was more I took it as more of a 231 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 3: like biological scientific kind of approach. This one, this newer book, 232 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 3: So tell Me About the Last Time He Had Sex, 233 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 3: is more of a guide to relationships and like, let's 234 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 3: I want to diving because I have so many questions 235 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 3: for him, and I love a male's perspective. 236 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 4: Oh, I've never had one so let's get him in here. 237 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 4: Let's get him in here, bring him at Toronto. 238 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 5: Hey, how are you good? 239 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: How are you good? We're so excited to have you. 240 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 4: I have to be honest, I've never had a male's 241 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 4: perspective on a lot of these topics, which I guess 242 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 4: is strange. I guess maybe when you're in an intimate 243 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 4: partnership you should be having these conversations. Hence, maybe why 244 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm not in a relationship because all the important shit 245 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 4: I don't talk about. 246 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that you have to 247 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 5: be communicating in relationships. You know, I just watched I've 248 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 5: been watching heated rivalry and the things people are everyone's 249 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 5: talking about it. But the thing I like most is 250 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 5: the way they are talking about sex, not just the 251 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 5: sex being hot, but what feels good, what doesn't. I 252 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 5: love that it doesn't hinge all around intercourse the way 253 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 5: heterosexual sex does, and they engage in all these what 254 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 5: I call outer course activities. So yeah, I think it's 255 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 5: a great example of the importance of communicating. 256 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 4: You just said exactly what I have been trying to 257 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 4: Sometimes my brain is working but my mouth can't catch up. 258 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 4: What you just said is exactly how I felt about 259 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: heated rivalry. So thank you for saying that, because you 260 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: just nailed it absolutely. 261 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. I think anybody who wants to learn 262 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 5: how to talk about sex, how to be creative about sex, 263 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 5: how to let sexuality simmer, how to maintain interesting sex, 264 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,439 Speaker 5: go watch that show and get entertained. 265 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. I agree, I agree. 266 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 3: And you know something, So I read your first book, 267 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 3: She Comes First, and I learned so much about the clip, 268 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 3: and I learned so much about my own biology that 269 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 3: I didn't know that it has eight thousand nerve endings. 270 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 2: Is that correct? 271 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 5: That is right, Amber, You got clitterate. 272 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 4: From what I experienced last night. That sounds absolutely correct. Yeah, 273 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 4: that sounds right on. 274 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 275 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, so many men are still ill clittering. 276 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 5: They don't understand that the clitterists is the powerhouse of 277 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 5: female pleasure. It has external parts that we're all used 278 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 5: to that get stimulated, but there are also internal parts 279 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 5: that wrap around the entrance to the vagina which actually 280 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 5: make intercourse feel good and feel stimulating. Without the clitterists, 281 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 5: there is no real feeling around sex because vaginas are 282 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 5: meant to deliver babies, right, you don't want more sensitive 283 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 5: nerve endings deep inside the vagina. You don't want to 284 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 5: experience more pain or more sensation. So yeah, the Clitterist 285 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 5: is an amazing organ and I wrote that book over 286 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 5: twenty years ago and it's still a very powerful part 287 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 5: of my work, which is getting couples, heterosexual couples, men 288 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 5: and women to take a more female centric approach to 289 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 5: sex and to prioritize outer course all the things that 290 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 5: are not intercourse. 291 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: And I love that. 292 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 4: How does that land with a man? Usually when they're like, 293 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 4: oh wait, she's a part of this. 294 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 5: Too, you know, some men are a little threatened. Some 295 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 5: women are too. People like to think that penis and 296 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 5: vagina intercourse is the be all and end all and 297 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 5: organize all of their sexual events around that. I actually 298 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 5: meet many men, believe it or not. I meet many 299 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 5: men who want to be literally focused. They love going 300 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 5: down on their partners, they want to do more of it. 301 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 5: It's a very vulnerable sexual behavior and it's actually a 302 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 5: lot of women who are sometimes resistant to receiving that 303 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 5: kind of stimulation and want to try and just focus 304 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 5: on intercourse. So I've been surprised over the years around 305 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 5: the open mindedness of men to take this feedback and 306 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 5: some of the rigidity of women. But I think it's 307 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 5: also like, you know, we have genital self esteem issues. 308 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 5: We men. We worry about the size of our dicks 309 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 5: and how long we're going to last and how long 310 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 5: we can keep it up. And I think women have 311 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 5: their own set of issues around sexual self esteem. 312 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 2: That is so true, Like it's my biggest fear. 313 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 4: I'm like, when you start talking to someone and you're like, oh, 314 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 4: this is great, and then I go, oh, no, we're. 315 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 2: Gonna have sex. Fuck? 316 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 4: What does that mean? What does that mean exactly? Because 317 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 4: Amber and I are are both sober. I have a 318 00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 4: little over seven years. 319 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 2: You're a year and a half. Amber a little over 320 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: a year and a half. Yeah, amazing, So thank you 321 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 2: very much. 322 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 3: So we also when we start to date, like that 323 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 3: social lubricant has gone as well as that. 324 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 4: You know, for me, the alcohol kind of put me 325 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 4: into my sexy and I was uninhibited and I was 326 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 4: down for the cause. Like you want me to eat 327 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 4: an ass, I'll fucking eat an ass. 328 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 2: Now I'm like a wait or what? 329 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 3: Yeah? 330 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 5: You know, I work with a lot of sober people 331 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 5: and it is an issue. How do you disinhibit how 332 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 5: do you relax into sex when you're used to using alcohol, 333 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 5: you know, because anxiety is the enemy of arousal. And 334 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 5: the more we can do to get ourselves aroused, the 335 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 5: more you're going to be willing to eat ass again, 336 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 5: the more things that sound disgusting actually sound scrumptious once 337 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 5: we're aroused, you know. But I do agree it's a challenge, 338 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 5: and I think that's where setting setting comes into a 339 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 5: lot of comes into it and feeling very comfortable, very 340 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 5: emotionally safe with someone. I think, being connected to your 341 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 5: erotic self, and I think with a partner, maybe being 342 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 5: able to engage in the psychological aspects of sex, you know, 343 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 5: the fantasy parts of sex or the you know, Like 344 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 5: I see couples who won't talk about sex during sex, 345 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 5: and then I'll see that same couple. I've worked with 346 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 5: so many couples at dinner having a dinner, and you 347 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 5: should see them the way they're like, Oh, try this, 348 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 5: taste this, open up, baby, come on, come on, you 349 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 5: have to try it.

So it's also about engaging the language of sex. 352 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 3: I love what you said in your new books, So 353 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 3: tell me about the last time you had sex.

Like all that 358 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 3: for play that's outside of the bedroom, and that starts 359 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: there even it's like a thirty second connection. Can you 360 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 3: talk a little bit more about that, because I really 361 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: really admire and love that approach to getting comfortable to 362 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: get to the point of where you're having in a course. 363 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 5: You know, I think that's so important, especially for women. 364 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 5: You know, male desire, there's been a lot of research. 365 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 5: Men experience spontaneous desire, meaning like guy sees like a beautiful, 366 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 5: sexy woman that sexual cue immediately metabolizes and he feels 367 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 5: like a move to like want to consume right. Women 368 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 5: also experience lust and can also experience spontaneous desire, but 369 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 5: more often than not experience what's called responsive desire, meaning 370 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 5: desire isn't the first thing you feel. It's like the 371 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 5: third desire warms up, desire simmers, Desire needs an environment. 372 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 5: You know, there's a difference between like a hot start, 373 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 5: we're gonna rush through the door and throw each other 374 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 5: on the bed, versus like a warm start that's nurturing, 375 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 5: that's connecting. And listen, hot starts are fun. I love them, 376 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 5: but warm starts are the reality of our lived lives. 377 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 5: And so guys, really again, that's where we have to 378 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 5: change our mindset. So to your point about like yes, 379 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 5: and Amber, I will tell couples, you know, let's say 380 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 5: you're gonna have sex on a Friday night, that's your 381 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 5: date night.

But to your point, Amber, 389 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 5: it's all about building you know that connection. 390 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: Right. I loved what you said about like the hot start, 391 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 3: which is obviously very fun, and like I love being spontaneous, 392 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 3: but if you think about you know something that is 393 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 3: going to last and be your normal. 394 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 2: I think if it's it's quick. 395 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: And spontaneous all the time, then how do you ever 396 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: get like that kind of has to be something that's 397 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 3: on a whim, because then I find that men they 398 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 3: want more and at some point I'm tapped out. I'm like, 399 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 3: I can't get any fucking kinkier and more spontaneous, Like 400 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 3: I'm looking, can you just like touch me and in 401 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 3: a nice way instead of like slapping my ass? 402 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 5: Yeah? 403 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 4: I like the softness. People may not think that, but 404 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 4: I do. 405 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 3: Do you find from a biological standpoint that women post 406 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 3: having babies that changes on a like the desire to 407 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 3: have sex changes because it's a biological thing, or they're 408 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 3: just exhausted and stressed and their priorities have kind of shifted. 409 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 3: Because I'm sure you've seen a ton of couples that 410 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 3: the wife doesn't want to have sex because she's doing 411 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 3: all the chores and dealing with the kids totally. 412 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 5: And I think those men that come home and want 413 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 5: sex should get on the floor and play with their 414 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 5: kids and change a diaper and clean and you know, 415 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 5: join in the activity and make it feel like a 416 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 5: shared family experience. You know. Look, sex changes over the 417 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 5: life cycle, and I'm getting up there in years. I've 418 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 5: been married for twenty five years, and I've been through 419 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 5: some health issues and we've had two kids, and sex 420 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 5: definitely changes over the life cycle, and there are hormonal shifts, 421 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 5: but really it's about making space for sex and for 422 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 5: romantic love in your lives, maintaining that erotic threat. So 423 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 5: let's say you're a mom and you're changing diapers and 424 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 5: you're picking up puke and your dad and you're running 425 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 5: errands and you're both stressed out. You don't have to 426 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 5: jump in bed to have sex, but you can have 427 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 5: what I call like just like an erotic charge, like 428 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 5: a moment with each other that reminds you, hey, I'm 429 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 5: in a sexual relationship. Here, we have sex. We might 430 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 5: not be having sex right now, but this is a 431 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 5: sexy sexual relationship. So I work with a lot of 432 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 5: couples who have just had children on sort of not 433 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 5: just restarting sex, but almost like having like sex two 434 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,959 Speaker 5: point zero, like new sex, better sex. 435 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 3: Well, I love that to keep the mindset even though 436 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 3: we're not having sex right now, I am in a 437 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 3: sexy relationship. Oh my gosh, you're a fucking genius. I 438 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 3: love every our listeners are going to gain so much 439 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 3: from this. You have no idea do you find Because 440 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 3: we live in a world that so many women and 441 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 3: men are on SSRI or some sort of antidepressant, how 442 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 3: is that affecting the chemistry and the sex life of 443 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 3: a real relationship. 444 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 2: Because some of these, some of these completely kill your 445 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 2: sex drive. 446 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean millions of people are on SSRIs. The 447 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,959 Speaker 5: long term effects overall don't get studied. But especially we 448 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 5: know that almost anybody who's on prozac, zoloft, lexaproach, they're 449 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 5: going to experience sexual side effects. Their desire is going 450 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 5: to be diminished, their arousal is going to be diminished. 451 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 5: In a woman, that might mean that sex actually feels 452 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 5: different and is more painful because there isn't as much 453 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 5: lubrication and for both, orgasms are going to be delayed, 454 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 5: sometimes nonexistent, or sometimes really muffled. So you know, going 455 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 5: on an SSRI is a big decision. Now. Some people 456 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 5: are in such bad relationships or have so much stress 457 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 5: or anxiety that going on the SSRI helps them reduce 458 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 5: that stress and anxiety and they can focus on being sexual. Look, 459 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 5: where there's a will, there's a way. Ultimately, sex is 460 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 5: not about being spontaneous and having that hot start. It's 461 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 5: about two people meeting with their willingness at the same 462 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 5: time and really leaning into that kind of let's start 463 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 5: putting ourselves through the motions, let's start simmering. And I 464 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 5: work with lots of people who are on SSRIs, and 465 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:34,239 Speaker 5: there are pathways to mitigating some of those effects and 466 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 5: finding a path to arouse it. But make no mistake, 467 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 5: it's debilitating. And really really question before you need to 468 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 5: go on that SSRI and how long do you really 469 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 5: need to go on it? And can you sometimes take 470 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 5: a break from it, you know, things to think about. 471 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: I had that experience on zooft and I had a change. 472 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: But before I changed, I went and saw a you know, 473 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 3: hormonal doctor and she's like, Okay, you don't want to 474 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 3: go off of it, let's do there's a nose spray. 475 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that you could take. 476 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 3: I forgot the hormone that it releases, but she's like, 477 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 3: it gives you, like within thirty minutes, you better be 478 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 3: in the bedroom because it will just turn you on 479 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 3: really quickly. I was like, I don't want to be 480 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 3: shoving anything on my nose now spraying when I won 481 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: want to have sex. 482 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 4: So it was the thing that you spread up your 483 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 4: nose was to get you horny and ready to roll. 484 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was it effective, It was, it was 485 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 3: very effective. I actually had to get it from Organ. 486 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 3: There's only like a couple of pharmacies in the United 487 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 3: States that will actually do it, and this particular one 488 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 3: came out of Organ. 489 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 2: It was great. 490 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 3: And listen, I'm young. I don't think I need I 491 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 3: needed that, so I just stopped and I actually just 492 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 3: changed medications. I ended up going on Pristige that's better, 493 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 3: which gave me my sex drive back. So I just 494 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: want everyone to know and I want everyone that's listening 495 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 3: to know that, like, there's there's solutions, and sometimes it's 496 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 3: a cocktail, and sometimes it's just simply saying, hey, not 497 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 3: being afraid to go to your gun or your family 498 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 3: doctor or your psychiatrist and said, listen, this is not 499 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 3: working because I, like you say in your book, sex 500 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: is a primal need and it's something that we need 501 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 3: to take care of and participate in.

I'd love to know more about that spray. 505 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 5: I work with people on trying to just work on 506 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 5: the issues that are creating the anxiety or the sadness 507 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 5: that's creating the need for those SSRIs and I like 508 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 5: to try and get people off of medications that are 509 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 5: going to be debilitating. I do think that sex is 510 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 5: an essential part of life. I mean, I think it's 511 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 5: the difference between somebody being a best friend and being 512 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 5: a lover, between being a bed mate and being a roommate. 513 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 5: And I think it's everyone's existential right to experience pleasure 514 00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 5: and their sexuality. 515 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 4: Sess with this episode, by the way, we had a 516 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 4: lot of people right in and they've got some They've 517 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 4: got some questions for you. So the first one is 518 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 4: how early into dating should you talk about your sexual 519 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 4: desires with a partner? 520 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 5: You know, I think I think you should start talking 521 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 5: pretty early about sex. I think you should get in 522 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 5: the habit of talking about sex the way you would 523 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 5: talk about friends, the way you would talk about family, 524 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 5: you know, Lalla. So many of us grow up in 525 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 5: sex negative homes, you know, where sex was not modeled 526 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 5: for us. It was not you know it, it was 527 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 5: a taboo. It's a forbidden Very few of us grew 528 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 5: up in sex positive homes. Most of us grew up 529 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 5: in sex avoidant homes. That's where I grew up, in 530 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 5: a sex avoidant home. It wasn't like anybody was particularly negative. 531 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 5: They just didn't talk about it. It was never the 532 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 5: conversation that came up. So I was launched into the 533 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 5: world of sexuality not knowing how to talk about sex. 534 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 5: And then suddenly you're with a partner, You're with a lover, Like, 535 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 5: that's where you need to start developing the vocabulary and 536 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 5: early on you know. Yes, So if you're sitting across 537 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 5: the table from someone you find sexy, someone that you 538 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 5: think you might want to have sex with, whether it's 539 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 5: casual or may develop into romantic love. Yeah, have a 540 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 5: sense of sexual self esteem, sexual self worth. Talk about 541 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 5: what you like, what you don't like, what works for you, 542 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 5: what doesn't, and what you need. 543 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 4: Oh I love this because that was Actually I'm so 544 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 4: glad someone asked that because I am newly launching myself 545 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 4: into the dating, the dating world, and for a very 546 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 4: long time it was like I was not having sex 547 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 4: at all. I was planning to have a baby via donor. 548 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 4: I was pregnant for nine months. Then I'm postpartum, and 549 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 4: then it was like, you know, I just want to 550 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 4: have sex, like no strings attached. So when when you're 551 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 4: put in that situation, it's like both parties know the drill. 552 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 4: Sex is the only thing that needs to be spoken 553 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 4: about now that I'm venturing into like I'm open to 554 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 4: love and giving someone my time and affection.

It doesn't always grow into romantic love. 558 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 5: Sometimes lust just becomes lust, as you were saying. But 559 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 5: sometimes you plant a seed and you're like, holy shit, 560 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 5: this is this seed is actually blossoming into something. Start 561 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 5: the conversation. You know, it can actually be the first 562 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 5: time you have sex. You can during sex you could 563 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 5: say try, you know, try this, or that feels really great, 564 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 5: or I love this about you, or move this way 565 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 5: a little bit, or ouch that hurts. I remember, honestly, 566 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 5: when I was having sex with my wife for the 567 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 5: first time, like, you know, twenty five twenty six years ago, 568 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 5: she would tell me ouch, ouch that that hurts a 569 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 5: little bit, or or this way or you know, if 570 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 5: she didn't have an orgasm, she didn't have to fake it, 571 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 5: and she was honest about it and like, no big deal. 572 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 4: That's when you know you're comfortable, if you're like, you know, 573 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 4: I didn't get off that time, instead of faking it. Oh, 574 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 4: that is the worst feeling. Does anything good ever come 575 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 4: from telling your partner how many people you've had sex 576 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 4: within the past. 577 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 5: Well, I can tell you that a lot of negative 578 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 5: stuff does come with it. You know, people feel like 579 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 5: my partner has you know, in men, People feel like, oh, 580 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 5: she's had more sexual experience than I did. She knows more. 581 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to really perform. That performing creates an 582 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 5: anxiety that then creates a reptile unpredictability, and then that 583 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 5: guy can't perform at all. So I don't think, you know, 584 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 5: I don't think it's worthwhile to talk about partners in 585 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 5: terms of numbers and quantity. If you want to talk 586 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 5: about qual if you want to talk about, you know, 587 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 5: some partners that you've had, I think that that's fair game, 588 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 5: you know, to I think we should know each other's histories. 589 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 5: I mean, I sit across the table from my wife 590 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 5: and I know almost everything about her, you know, except 591 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 5: what she writes in her journal.

They know 604 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 5: what porn sex looks like. 605 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 2: That's another big fear of mine. 606 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 3: I've lived through that. I lived through that for eight years. 607 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 4: You and me both, What are the positive and negative 608 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 4: impacts free access to pornography has done to us as 609 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 4: humans and our sex lives? 610 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: We were just talking about this. What have you seen 611 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 2: in your career? 612 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 5: So I am both you know, I can go both 613 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 5: ways on porn. I have a spectrum of feelings, you know. 614 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 5: On the negative side, I do think that younger people 615 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 5: at younger ages are watching porn and that's how they're 616 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 5: learning about sex because guess what nobody else is teaching them, 617 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 5: And so I don't think young people should be exposed 618 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 5: to porn sex as their first model of what sex 619 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 5: should look like. I also have men who come in 620 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 5: who feel like excessive porn news has given them a 621 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 5: reptile disorder, and they'll say, I watch so much porn 622 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 5: now I can't get it up. Porn fucked up my brain. Actually, 623 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 5: porn didn't fuck up his brain. What's fucking up his 624 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 5: brain is he doesn't know how to actually be with 625 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 5: a real person. Porn is easy, Porn is junk food. 626 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 5: Real sexuality is complex and it requires attunement. So I 627 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 5: think that there's some negatives to porn, but I also 628 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 5: think there's a lot of positives. I mean, Amber, you said, 629 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 5: what does somebody do after they've had a kid? You know, 630 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 5: in those weeks. It's true that you probably won't be 631 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 5: having sex for eight or twelve weeks, you know, and 632 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 5: who knows where you ended up in the third trimester. 633 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 5: So porn can be a very legitimate form of self pleasure. 634 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 5: I tell couples all the time who want to sort 635 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 5: of add some arousal into the sex at the beginning 636 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,439 Speaker 5: to get going to engage in psychological stimuli. A lot 637 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 5: will choose to watch porn together. 638 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,280 Speaker 2: I was going to to ask you about that. Yeah, 639 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: like you think that that's fine. 640 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 4: If a couple is like, let's watch porn together, you 641 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 4: think that that's a healthy thing to be doing. 642 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 5: I actually do, in large largely, I really do, because 643 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 5: that's a couple. First of all, they're very open minded, 644 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 5: and they're willing to do that and willing to share 645 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 5: that without feeling judged by what they selected. And ultimately 646 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 5: it can be stimulating, just like watching a sexy movie 647 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 5: or a sexy show. And look, let's speak true in 648 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 5: long term relationships, it's sometimes is hard to keep that charge, 649 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 5: that sexiness. So we owe it to our relationships to 650 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 5: find ways to get into that warm start and get 651 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 5: into the sex right. 652 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 3: Well. Also, now we're gonna have to combat AI porn 653 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 3: because that's really changing the world. 654 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: Don't you have to pay for that? 655 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 4: I fully enjoy porn, hubb I'm just letting you guys know. 656 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 4: But just like I don't want to do this twenty 657 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 4: minute thing, get to the good shit.

But it's 663 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 5: kind of like like there's fair trade coffee, there's fair 664 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 5: trade porn. You know that the actors weren't exploited, there 665 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 5: is consent STI testing, so you know, wait, it's to their. 666 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 4: Own Okay, throw it onto the list of subscriptions. My 667 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 4: business manager is going to be thrilled. Why are we 668 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 4: hearing that gen Z isn't using condoms? 669 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 5: Oh my god, what do you think about that? I 670 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 5: you know, what's your first response to that? Because I 671 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:47,760 Speaker 5: actually know So I know a lot of gen Zers 672 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 5: who actually are very concerned about STIs and concerned about 673 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 5: unwanted pregnancy and do use condoms. I also know a 674 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 5: lot of gen Z women who are on birth control 675 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 5: and will forego a condom even if there's a possible 676 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 5: ability of an STI, so. 677 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: Which is crazy to me. 678 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 4: So, going back to what you stated about how there 679 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 4: were three different types of household households with sex, I 680 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 4: grew up in a very open households. Some of my 681 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 4: listeners think my family's very weird, But I figure if 682 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,319 Speaker 4: I can talk about this shit to a stranger. I 683 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 4: can certainly talk about it to the woman who pushed 684 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 4: me out of her vagina. So I always knew that, like, 685 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 4: the best case scenario is you get pregnant, right all 686 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 4: the other shit that sticks around that you don't want 687 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 4: use a fucking condom. I've always said you can hoe around, 688 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 4: but you've got to be an educated hoe. This sends 689 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 4: me into a full on panic to think that people 690 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 4: of this age range are not wrapping it up. 691 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think women feel a sexual pressure to 692 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 5: concede because any guy will tell you that it feels 693 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 5: better to have sex with out a condom. But you know, 694 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 5: so what, there's other ways. I mean, sex is still super, 695 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 5: super pleasurable. 696 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 2: There's so many different kinds. Go to Costco. 697 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 4: They come in bulk, the thin there, the wrist kinds 698 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 4: that climb on rocks like there's no reason why you 699 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 4: shouldn't be putting a condom on. I want to shake 700 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 4: these people. That is so dumb to be like, well, 701 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 4: I'm on birth control, so all is good. Not all 702 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 4: is good. I remember in the seventh grade they they 703 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 4: pulled up this like basically, what is that thing where 704 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 4: there's like circles and it connects everyone. You know, I'm 705 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 4: thank you, thank you talk to And it shocked me 706 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 4: to be like if this person has been with me, 707 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 4: but they've been with all of these people and I've 708 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 4: been and it connected all of us. 709 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god. So I always practice 710 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 2: safe sex with the condom and birth control. 711 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 5: And you know what, the fact that you're sober is 712 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 5: amazing because I think more than likely you may be 713 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 5: acting with men who moderate or are sober, or you're 714 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 5: more connected into a sober environment because rates of unwanted 715 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 5: pregnancy and STI highly correlate with you know, drinking and disinhibition. 716 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 5: And so I think, you know, you're lucky you're in 717 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 5: a and maybe are you in a sober sex environment 718 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 5: or to some extent or. 719 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 2: Yes, I would. 720 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 4: I would say that no one has, No one is 721 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 4: an alcoholic. I get very worried about being involved with 722 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 4: men who are also in the program because, as you know, 723 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 4: I'm a single mom. I have to worry about my 724 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 4: own sobriety. I don't want to worry about yours. So 725 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 4: I prefer you come into my life and just have 726 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 4: a healthy relationship with alcohol. 727 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 2: If I could have it that way. 728 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 4: But I'm sure there were many times where in my 729 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 4: drinking years I was stupid and didn't you know, practice. 730 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 5: Its okay, we don't need to use a condom exactly. 731 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 5: So that's what you do when you're a little You know, 732 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 5: there's a difference between non consensual sex and unwanted sex. 733 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 5: Unwanted sex can actually be consensual. I'm drunk, I'm a 734 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 5: little drunk. Okay, let's not use that condom. I wake 735 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 5: up the next morning. Fuck, I can't believe I let 736 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 5: that happen. But yeah, you let it happen. 737 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 2: I know, love to plan be back in the day, 738 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 2: love to plan be. 739 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, stop. You know this is who I am. 740 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 3: I'm an overshare. Can a lack of sex have negative 741 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 3: health impacts? 742 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 5: So you're not going like, look, I think that sex 743 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 5: is a vital need. I don't think it's a need 744 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 5: like food or water. If you don't get food or water, 745 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 5: eventually you're gonna die. If you don't get sex, you 746 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:54,399 Speaker 5: know you are you're not going to die. But I 747 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 5: think you're going to be missing out on a key 748 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 5: aspect of relation. And let me just say, when I 749 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 5: talk about sex, I'm not talking about intercourse. I'm just 750 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 5: talking about whatever feels really sexual to you or wherever 751 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:16,359 Speaker 5: it gets you to pleasure. So they like to say 752 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 5: that sex has health benefits, but you know, there are 753 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 5: no real studies like, oh, sex is going to help 754 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 5: me lose weight, or it's going to clear up my skin. 755 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,760 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, papers love to publish those kinds 756 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 5: of stories. So I don't think sex is going to 757 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 5: help you necessarily live longer. Being in a great relationship 758 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,760 Speaker 5: that has great sex might help you to live longer. 759 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 5: And I don't think not having sex is going to 760 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 5: kill you. 761 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 2: Is it true? 762 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 3: Because I've had quite a few men talk about that 763 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 3: if they don't if they don't have sex frequently or 764 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 3: jack off, that it builds up toxins in their body. 765 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 3: They have to get rid of the toxins that doesn't 766 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 3: turn into something that is unwanted, like a like a poop, 767 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 3: you don't go. 768 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 5: You know, there is there are some studies that show 769 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 5: that masturbation is associated with prostate health. There's no real 770 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 5: guideline around it. But you know, I would say that, 771 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 5: you know, masturbation is can help with prostate health. But 772 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 5: you know, guys love to sort of say, oh, if 773 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 5: I don't release, I have you know, blue balls. I'm 774 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 5: in this state of you know, arousal intention. The truth is, 775 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 5: guys get turned on very quickly. We turn on we 776 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 5: see something and we have to turn ourselves off. So 777 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 5: it's just about sort of surfing those waves. 778 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: Okay. 779 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 3: I wonder how that translates for women, Like what's the 780 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 3: equivalent of blue balls for women? 781 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 5: Well? Women, And you know what's interesting is if you 782 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 5: look at male sexuality versus female sexuality. During sex, blood 783 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 5: goes into the male genitals very quickly, creates that you know, 784 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 5: strong erection and that propulsion, propulsive ejaculation. Blood goes in 785 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 5: quickly and blood leaves quickly, right, so men can go 786 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 5: up here, have their orgasm and come you know, right 787 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 5: back down here, and they have a refractory period a 788 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 5: period of time before they can have sex again women again, 789 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 5: And this is the beauty and the power of female sexuality. 790 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 5: For women, blood flows into the genitals much more slowly, 791 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,399 Speaker 5: meaning yes, we a have to spend a lot more 792 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 5: time on connecting and arousal and foreplay and things that 793 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 5: feel good. But after orgasm, blood does not leave the 794 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 5: genitals quickly. For women, it stays there, so women can 795 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 5: go into this sort of warm plateau phase, and some 796 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 5: women like to have more sex from there and have 797 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 5: another orgasm. Women have sort of an unlimited capacity for 798 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 5: orgasm if you just want to sort of ride that 799 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 5: curve of orgasm into the warm state back into orgasm. 800 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 5: So blood flows out of the female genitals more slowly, 801 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:21,720 Speaker 5: but ultimately men and women, you know, within a few minutes, 802 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 5: will all land in the sort of the pre arousal 803 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 5: stage of sex. 804 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 3: Did he answer your question, Amber, Yes, I know this 805 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,919 Speaker 3: guy who stays hard for fucking hours and he's super young, 806 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 3: and I'm like, this is fucking crazy, Like literally, we'll 807 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 3: get off and within seconds it'll be ready to go again. 808 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 2: He's like a dream man. 809 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 5: Anyway, And how new is the sex? 810 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 2: Very new?

We 826 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 5: live in a culture where doctors love to say, because 827 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 5: of pharmaceutical companies, you can stay on this for life, 828 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 5: and we really don't know a lot of men out 829 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 5: there who have low libido and go on testosterone. It's 830 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 5: not actually the testosterone that was the problem. It's it's 831 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 5: other things. So so stosterone can be great. Like I'm 832 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 5: working with some guys who really have chronically low libido 833 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 5: and they feel a lot of lust or want for 834 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 5: their partners, but they can't. They just don't feel a 835 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 5: lot of lust or want but they did in the beginning, 836 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 5: or they want to. They're into their partners, and so 837 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:27,919 Speaker 5: sometimes testosterone can move the needle. I think it's biologic. 838 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 5: Sex is biological, it's psychological, it's you know, it's relational. 839 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot going on. 840 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 3: I found the nasal spray, so I was taking this 841 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,919 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty three, and now I realize, like during 842 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 3: that period, I think I was heavily in the family 843 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 3: core system battling, So you can only imagine that my 844 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 3: sex stri was not so exciting. So it was actually 845 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 3: an oxytocin nasal spray. 846 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,720 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, oxytostin nasal spray. 847 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 3: That's really interesting is this is a quick acting so 848 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 3: you want to use it within minutes of sexual activity. 849 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 3: It was one hundred units spray one to two sprays 850 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: into each nostril immediately before sexual activity. That's that's sexy. 851 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,720 Speaker 5: That is really interesting. You know, like oxytocin in spray 852 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:22,439 Speaker 5: form is becoming more popular. I haven't had a lot 853 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,479 Speaker 5: of experience with it, amber so your experience is great 854 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 5: to know. I mean, oxytocin helps to Oxytocin is the 855 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 5: cuddle hormone. It's the it's the connecting hormone. It's a 856 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 5: hormone that helps with arousal. So I could see that 857 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 5: and it would be short acting. 858 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 3: It works, you guys, I am not joking. It's like 859 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 3: you become a rabbit. I used it and I was like, 860 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,280 Speaker 3: and I actually threw it away because it had expired 861 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 3: when I moved out to Montana, so I was actually like, 862 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: do I need But I'm good now that problem has 863 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 3: been solved. But yeah, that was one of the things 864 00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 3: that my doctor prescribed me and I actually got from 865 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 3: a compounding pharmacy and organ cool. 866 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 5: I'm going to ask an MD I work with, who's 867 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 5: an obgyn and she's really into this stuff and she 868 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,839 Speaker 5: works we work with a lot of compounding pharmacies as well, 869 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 5: so thank you for that. I'm going to bring this 870 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 5: up with her and see if we can make it 871 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 5: part of our potentially part of our treatment plan. And 872 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 5: I'll get her feedback and she probably knows everything about it. 873 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 5: So if there's anything should you guys should know about it, 874 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 5: I'll let you know. 875 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:28,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, please do I would love that.

Yeah. 877 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 3: Well, the listeners were thrilled about this episode. I just 878 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 3: have a couple more questions. What can a wife do 879 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 3: to spice things up besides toys? 880 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, toys on their own are not inherently spicy. 881 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 5: They're just devices. You know, same with like handcuffs or 882 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 5: little you know, anything that's like BDSM or kinky or 883 00:48:56,040 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 5: kink light, Like those are just accessories. They're prop It's 884 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 5: what do we psychologically imbue them with, right, So you 885 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:09,359 Speaker 5: know it's sexy, Like if you wake up and tell 886 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,760 Speaker 5: your guy, you know, I had a super sexy dream 887 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 5: about you last night, Like I don't know what my 888 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 5: unconscious was up to, but you know, boy, where we 889 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 5: getting it on in some unusual original ways, like hopefully 890 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,359 Speaker 5: you spice someone's interest in you thread it through the day. 891 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 5: I guess what I'm trying to say is psychological arousal 892 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,320 Speaker 5: is as important as physical arousal. There have been studies 893 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 5: that show that women can fantasize their way to orgasm 894 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 5: without touching themselves. Men can get very powerful erections just 895 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 5: by sitting in front of porn for seven minutes or 896 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:50,399 Speaker 5: looking at someone sexy or thinking about someone sexy. So 897 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 5: think about bringing more psychological arousal into the relationship, which 898 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 5: maybe requires a little more vulnerability. 899 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 3: I've actually seen YouTube videos of women orgasming just by 900 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 3: doing breath work, working with a sex therapist. 901 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 2: That was fascinating. 902 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it is wild for I think it's all 903 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 4: about the mental state, Like I have to feel very comfortable, 904 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 4: I have to like create the fantasy. I think it's 905 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 4: all about like the muscles within the vagina as well 906 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 4: that you should constantly be working out. And yeah, there's 907 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 4: I think what I love about this episode the most 908 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 4: is all of the things that we've touched on that 909 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 4: have everything to do with the sex that exists before 910 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 4: the actual sex that I think so many people forget about. 911 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 4: It's all about just the the penis entering the vagina, 912 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 4: and there's so much more that goes into all of it. 913 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:56,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was working I worked with a couple who 914 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 5: hasn't had they haven't had sex in two months, but 915 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 5: they feel like they're in a very sexy sexual relationship. 916 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 5: They have sexual confidence in themselves and each other. And 917 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 5: then I was working with a young couple that had 918 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 5: moved in during COVID and they were having sex five 919 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 5: times a week or four times a week, and the 920 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 5: guy was like, I don't feel like we're in a 921 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 5: sexual relationship. 922 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:21,760 Speaker 4: Wow, you know, so that is mind blowing because mentally 923 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 4: they're not in sync. 924 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, he didn't even realize they were having She's like, 925 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 5: what do you mean we're not in a sexual relationship? 926 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 5: We had sex four times and he's like, really, I 927 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 5: don't remember that. And when I started to talk to him, 928 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 5: talk to them, It's just there was no erotic thread. 929 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 5: There was nothing connecting a sexual event to the next 930 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 5: sexual event. There was no eroticism in the air. Right. 931 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 3: That's why I think I always when people say, oh, 932 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 3: you shouldn't have sex until you've hit the three month 933 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 3: mark of dating, I see, and I get that perspective, right, 934 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 3: and I respect that.
