Reading Time: 2 minutes Skin and tissue can be very stretchy, and many birthing parents like myself will assure you that your insides can and often do return to their prepartum state, or very close to it. Regardless of whether you’ve given birth, your pelvic floor muscles and vagina would be very grateful for any kind of gentle exercise you can regularly maintain.

Reading Time: 2 minutes The Old and New Testament were not kind to women; we were sold by our fathers, raped by our husbands, and even Mary was impregnated by God without consent. Female choice or pleasure is never been rewarded or even considered in the Bible(s).

We Tried Some 50 Shades of Grey Style Kink To Spice It Up and It Was a Miserable Failure
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 3 minutes After you have discussed your interests and your limits and your safe word, be as creative as you’d like! If you’re not into conventional kinky attire like leather, bondage, whips, or chains, that’s fine! Something as simple as stuffing undies into his mouth and whispering “shhhhh” can be a simple way to introduce role play. Kink looks like whatever makes you happy.

My husband doesn’t want to have sex nearly as often as he used to. I initiate most of the time and often times he’s too tired or seems uninterested.
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 3 minutes , I’d give him a break: Focus on giving yourself pleasure as you can, splurge on a new sex toy, create a ritual for masturbation or self-pleasure, and take charge of your solo-sex life so that you can focus on you without relying on him. “I’m sorry if you’ve felt pressure from me and I’m going to make an effort to pleasure myself this month”, might turn his attitude around. After all, May IS National Masturbation Month.

I’m very attracted to my fiance, but I’m also attracted to women. What now??
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 2 minutes As a queer woman who married a man, my attraction to women never waned. Luckily, I was able to share my attraction to women with him and we were able to enjoy a fantasy realm that included watching FFM (female + female + male+) pornography, flirting with women in social settings, and eventually having a really fun threesome. I’d suggest you talk with your fiance if you feel comfortable in doing so. If you don’t, I would reconsider agreeing to be sexually monogamous with him until you die.

My boyfriend likes to go to strip clubs. I don’t want to make it a big deal but I feel threatened and insecure about it.
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 2 minutes I am a fan of talking to my partner when I feel insecure about something. In order to do that, ask yourself objective questions. What is it that bothers you? Are you afraid that he will like the other women’s bodies more than yours? Does he have a spending problem? Do you feel uncomfortable with your sexuality? These are big questions, but they can lead to self-discovery.

My husband and I had an amazing sex life until we had our baby. Now I can’t orgasm.
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 2 minutes Sex therapists tell me that the most common population of people who have trouble with arousal or orgasm are working women with children. Kids, labor and relationships require energy, which new parents don’t always have. Also, the constant diapering and crying of a new baby can drive a serious wedge into a person’s ability to fantasize about sex or to relax enough to enjoy it.
I believe that you will orgasm again, but that will happen after you’ve stopped trying so hard to get there, and focusing on the goal rather than the journey will add to your self-imposed pressure.

My fiance has asked me to watch porn with him, and I’m curious, but uncomfortable. I haven’t watched porn before. What should I do?
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 3 minutes Your fiance is asking you to try something that he enjoys, probably so that you can enjoy it together. It’s a good sign when a partner wants to share what excites them.

My partner and I can talk about almost anything. We’ve always had good communication. However, after three years, I still find it very difficult to talk to him about sex.
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 2 minutes It is very common for adults to have a tough time asking for their desires, but it still troubles me if two people who have spent years of time together aren’t able to feel comfortable enough for one to say to another: “I’ve realized that I’m craving some spontaneity around our sex.”

I would like to spice up my sex life by adding sex toys, but I don’t know where to start.
by Confluenceby ConfluenceReading Time: 3 minutes There’s no correct way to masturbate or experience sexual pleasure, so just do what feels good, and go from there.
