Episode notes

"I think it's the shame that we're taught about sex," she says. "The lack of open and honest conversations about sex make us feel so alone." For some people, there is a clear connection between leather pants and sexual arousal. But for the vast majority of people, though, there isn't an specific reason why you develop that interest instead of this other one.

Sex therapist Vanessa Marin is back and we’re digging into: why we’re (sadly and ironically) proven to be less likely to try new things in the bedroom the longer we’ve been partnered; how to spice up your sex life when things get bland – including how to find out and explore your sexual fantasies; how not all orgasms (even for men!) are created equal; and the TikTok sex challenges we should probably pass on.

For our previous conversations with Vanessa, check out: Episode 195 Sex Talk & That Night in Miami: Sex Therapy with Vanessa Marin and Episode 196 How Glennon & Abby Learned to Talk Dirty with Vanessa Marin.
