Deep dives
Understanding what we want in sex and desire
When it comes to talking about sex and desire in relationships, it's important to reframe the conversation and ask what it is that we want when we want sex. The four major themes that people commonly want when they desire sex are: connection, shared pleasure, feeling wanted, and a sense of freedom. By shifting the focus to understand these desires, instead of focusing on why someone doesn't want sex, we can foster better communication and understanding within the relationship.
