INSIGHT

Initiation Shapes Your Sex Life

  • Initiation is far more than a single moment before sex and shapes the whole sex life.
  • When initiation works, the sex is more connected, satisfying, and less high-pressure.
ADVICE

Stop Being Grabby First

  • Avoid initiating by immediately grabbing genitals, breasts, or butt unless your partner explicitly likes that.
  • Coach your partner by telling them what initiation techniques actually turn you on instead of only saying no.
ADVICE

Ditch Spray-And-Pray Initiation

  • Stop the 'spray and pray' approach of joking or initiating multiple times daily to maximize chances.
  • Be intentional about when you truly initiate to avoid pressure and resentment.
