In this episode, Dr. Jenn talks about faking it during intimacy. It comes in many forms – with both male and female partners doing it. It's the idea that we aren't totally authentic during sex.
Factors that tend to influence your willingness to be real:
- obligation to your partner
- distraction (busy brain)
- disinterest (they aren't doing what you want)
- insecurity (about body or skills)
- lack of knowledge about what you actually want
- habit (doing the same old thing)
Dr. Jenn unpacks different circumstances that bring about faking it and discusses why it happens and what you might do differently.
