Podcast Summary
Partner's porn/masturbation usage: Discovering partner's porn or masturbation use doesn't reflect on attractiveness or desirability, open communication and understanding are key, and everyone has unique sexual preferences.
Discovering your partner's use of porn or masturbation can be confusing and upsetting, but it doesn't necessarily mean there's an issue with your attractiveness or desirability. Dr. Emily, the host of the Sex With Emily podcast, encourages open communication and understanding in such situations. She emphasizes that everyone has unique sexual preferences and that these differences don't make one person "better" or "worse" than another. In the context of the discussion, she also tackles the question of how to handle rejection for sex when a partner masturbates frequently. Her advice includes open communication, understanding that everyone has different sexual needs and desires, and exploring ways to enhance your own pleasure and sexual satisfaction. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of open-mindedness, communication, and self-acceptance in navigating sexual relationships.
Sexual Communication: Communicate calmly, compassionately, and playfully about sex and masturbation to maintain a healthy relationship. Timing, tone, and respecting boundaries are essential.
Sex and masturbation serve different needs and it's essential to communicate with your partner about your feelings without taking it personally. Sexual fantasies and porn preferences don't necessarily reflect what we want in real life. It's important to remember the "three Ts" - timing, tone, and turf - when having awkward conversations. The conversation around sex and masturbation should be had at a time when both parties are calm and not in a heated emotion, with a curious, compassionate, and playful tone. It's also crucial to remember that everyone has active fantasy lives and that doesn't mean they're not attracted to their partner. Communication is key to maintaining a healthy and fulfilling sexual relationship.
Sexual communication: Effective communication about sexual desires and preferences leads to better sex and a stronger relationship, reducing guilt and shame through clear understanding and exploring individual turn-ons and fantasies.
Effective communication is key to understanding and satisfying each other's sexual desires and preferences. Discussing your fantasies, needs, and turn-ons in a non-judgmental and open manner can lead to better sex and a stronger relationship. It's important to remember that assumptions can be misleading, and having a clear understanding of what your partner wants can help reduce guilt and shame. Additionally, exploring your individual turn-ons and fantasies through a "yes, no, maybe" list can lead to new discoveries and deeper intimacy. Lastly, it's normal to have thoughts and fantasies during sex, and there's no need to feel guilty or ashamed about them unless they interfere with your ability to enjoy the present moment.
Exploring sexual pleasure: Understanding your body and trying new techniques can enhance sexual pleasure, communication and relaxation are essential during oral sex, and everyone's body responds differently
Exploring and understanding your body is key to achieving sexual pleasure. The clitoris plays a significant role in female orgasms, and squirting is a potential experience, but it's not a requirement for satisfaction. Practicing different techniques, such as oral sex, manual stimulation, and using toys, can help prevent desensitization and keep things interesting. Communication and relaxation are essential when receiving oral sex, and it's important to remember that everyone's body responds differently. Take the time to pay attention to your needs, ask questions, and be open to new experiences. Summer may be coming to an end, but there's always more to discover about yourself and your sexuality.
New experiences preparation: Preparation, communication, and setting clear boundaries are essential for new experiences, whether trying new gummies or pursuing a threesome. Use apps to connect, meet up, and discuss boundaries, and prioritize safety and consent.
Exploring new experiences, whether it's through trying out new products like Viya's gummies or pursuing a threesome, requires preparation, communication, and setting clear boundaries. For those interested in gummies, Viya offers a variety of natural, vegan-friendly options with THC, THCV, and CBD that can help calm the mind, enhance creativity, and promote relaxation. For those considering a threesome, it's essential to use apps like Feeld or FET Life to connect with potential partners, meet up beforehand, and discuss boundaries and preferences openly. Remember, communication and setting clear boundaries are crucial for any sexual encounter, whether with a partner or a third person. Additionally, masturbating in front of a partner can be an intimate and exciting experience if both parties are comfortable with it. As always, prioritize safety and consent.
Masturbation with partner: Masturbating in front of your partner can lead to learning, growth, and strengthening your connection. Create a comfortable atmosphere, receive compliments, and focus on pleasure and connection.
Exploring masturbation in front of your partner can lead to learning and growth in your relationship. It might be uncomfortable at first, but once you become more comfortable with your own body and make peace with it, the experience can be enjoyable and even strengthen your connection. Creating a comfortable and intimate atmosphere, such as dim lighting and clothing that makes you feel good, can help alleviate any anxiety. Additionally, receiving compliments from your partner about your body can boost your confidence and enhance the pleasure of the experience. Remember, the goal of sex is pleasure and connection, so focus on these aspects and let go of any negative thoughts or limiting beliefs about your body.
