Household Divides: Chores, Lack of Sex and How to Fix It With Caylee Cresta
The Man Enough Podcast
The Importance of Intimacy in Relationships
"Sex is how I feel emotionally connected to my wife. There's truth in that," he says. "But if we're just having a quick conversation, by all means men do." Men can't understand why their wives don't want sex when they provide them with emotional support instead of physical ones, she adds.

Digital creator and TikTok marriage counselor, Caylee Cresta is no stranger to translating sensitive topics between men and women. Today, she shares her findings on splitting household chores, breaking cycles of trauma, disconnected intimacy in relationships and how to foster greater understanding between men and women.

About Caylee Cresta
Caylee Cresta is a content creator and tik tok star with over 2M followers famously known for her comeback series where she reacts to toxic opinions and videos from men (usually regarding women) through stern advice and education. Caylee created her channel while working as a public construction project manager where her male employees would share the pains of marriage and at the same time complain about the lack of sex in their relationships. She started to wonder “what do men want from women?” and thus the channel was born. Her aim is to bridge the communication gap between men and women by explaining viewpoints that many women are hesitant to express themselves.
