Welcome back to Dr. Kelly Casperson, urologist, author, and expert in sexuality, and not to jump in, but let’s “fix” sex already!
It’s really challenging to get even our own ideas on sex straight, given what we were taught (or weren’t) and how societal and cultural “norms” around sexual behavior are … often not about sex.
Controlling sexuality is a time-honored tradition for controlling women in particular, and Dr. Casperson is ready to help women claim their bodies and their sexual responses through education and by shedding stigma.
In this episode, Dr. Casperson, Ruby, and Anne talk about how participants can improve their sex lives, including….
- What “should”s might be crowding our brains and how to get to our own genuine ideas about sex. (Sex should be about procreation; sex should occur X times per week; you should be having sex to keep your heart healthy, even if it’s not pleasurable.)
- What is “sex etiquette”? Is it OK to talk about the quality of the encounter while you’re cuddling, or should you save it for later? How do you introduce something new to the bedroom (or the kitchen floor or the back of the Volvo)?
- What tools are out there for easing into uncomfortable conversations?
- Gently educating men on women’s bodies (if we weren’t taught much about our own, how much education do you reckon THEY got? Hint: porn is NOT educational.)
- How bodies and preferences change over time.
- How sex is like coding. :)
- Erotica for telling your brain, “Hey, this is sexy time.”
