A sҽxual exchange isn’t just about pleasure; it also entails a power interaction between the two partners. We touched on many aspects of this in last week’s episode, in which we featured an interview with an expert in the alternative sҽxual practices that constitute BDSM. However, power dynamics are also at play in more mainstream sҽxual exchanges.
In this episode, we’ll consider some of the ways in which power dynamics manifest themselves in sҽxual exchanges. We’ll also look at the psychological aspects of such exchanges.
