Episode notes

The pair made a sex fantasy jar, where they filled out lists separately and compared them to each other. Do you think it's possible that we're scared of conversations about fantasies with our partners because we're afraid we are not enough for our partner? The vast majority of people don't have an incredibly narrow, super specific version of what they think is sexy,. A lot of us say, I find all of these things sexy.

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.
