021 All About Erections Ask A Sex Therapist with Heather Shannon
-
- Sexuality
Erectile dysfunction is one of the most common issues I’ve dealt with as a sex therapist. Turns out there’s a lot of pressure on people with a penis! There’s the idea that they need to last super long and manage their erection. There’s the idea that they should always want sex and should really never say no to sex. And there’s the idea that they’re just sex machines who don’t have feelings or require emotional intimacy for sex to fulfill them. These ideas are mostly wrong and I just want to set things straight for you in this episode.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN:
The difference between physiological erectile dysfunction and psychological erectile dysfunctionWhy viagra and cialis often don’t workHow partners typically respond to erectile dysfunction and why that’s unhelpful and inaccurate 95% of the time.My tips on what to do when an erection goes away during sex. My unique insight about the penis and emotions.
Share this episode with your partner to get a healthy dialogue going about how you want to manage E.D. together.
