It’s hard to believe, but very often baby-making sex is the least romantic or titillating type of sex there is. You see, when sex becomes a duty complete with hormones, tests, temperatures, and complex specifications, it doesn’t make for good foreplay.

Hot wifing prioritizes the sexual freedom and voraciousness of a woman, and instead of feeling insecure about it, the man finds it really arousing. Does this kink benefit both partners and what are the rules? In this episode, I’m digging into the intriguing topic of the hot wife kink and why some couples explore it. Hot wifing is solely for the...2022-08-1917 minthe SEX podcastChlamydia, Just Another STI Coming After Your Sexy & What to Do About ItIn the STI spectrum, chlamydia is the relative new kid on the block, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t have your attention.

Whether it’s caning, flogging, or getting paddled - a lot of people enjoy blurring the lines between pleasure and pain, so much so that it’s become pretty much mainstream. The question is, why does spanking - well…slap? How do you start? In this episode, we’re going to talk about erotic spanking and why it’s so po...2022-07-2917 minthe SEX podcastGonorrhea, Let Me Go: The Truth About the Clap & Its SymptomsIn our numerous conversations about STIs, we’ve already racked up quite a rogue’s gallery of known offenders, but we would be remiss if we didn’t talk about gonorrhea (try not to think about the bridge of Bohemian Rhapsody).

Setting aside its horrific effects for a second, you kinda have to respect its place in history. But before you go thinking that syphilis is a disease of a bygone era, it’s actually still around affecting millions of people all over the world, closer to home than you might think. What is syphilis, and...2022-07-0122 minthe SEX podcastAce Appreciation: This is What It Means to Be AsexualOn the sexuality spectrum, asexuality remains overlooked, deeply-misunderstood, and poorly-portrayed. Until recently, lots of people just assumed that everyone was sexually attracted to someone or another - but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Asexuality is a lot more prevalent than we ever knew, but there are a ton of misconceptions around it. Asexuality is not abstinence, celibacy, repression, or aversion, and in this episode, I’m going to share what it is, and why we shouldn’t paint aces with the same brush because it’s also a spectrum in its own right.2022-06-2415 min

It’s actually a large spectrum going all the way from “I never want to have sex” to “I want to have sex with everyone”, or even “I want to have sex with Harry Styles in a dress.” There’s no definitive number of sexualities, and the more we know, the more belonging and acceptance we create for everyone.

Voyeurs have been around for about as long as human beings have been in existence, and truth be told, that makes sense, because the reality is we all like to watch, to some degree. The question is, where do we draw the line between Bridgerton, 50 Shades, and hey, even porn, and the criminal act of voyeurism? What prompts someone to want to watch, anyway? In this episode, I’m lifting the veil on voyeurism, and how it c...2022-04-1516 min

We’ve been taught for years that testosterone is the ‘male’ hormone, and as such, women should be avoiding it, and that makes sense, right? Well, maybe not. Not only do we have our own testosterone, but it can be incredibly beneficial to our sex lives - so, where does the confusion come in?
