How to learn to talk about sex
Shared by the hosts of a podcast about sex, the body and sexuality.
1.
Talk about sex *with yourself* and explore yourself
2.
Remember that your partner has *their own feelings and desires* — and they may not match yours
3.
Think your words through *in advance*
- by the way, it's a turn-on
4.
All of this works *only if you feel safe*: you're not judged, not mocked, not abused
5.
And, well, actually talk about sex: as in many other areas of life, *you can't get anywhere without practice*
6.
Learn more about *nonviolent communication* and use it
7.
*Be guided by comfort*, not by "how it's supposed to be": for example, use the words you and your partner(s) are used to
8.
*Don't beat yourself up* over "mistakes"
- see point 5
9.
On our podcast, we ourselves are learning to talk openly about sex and find the right words. Don't be afraid to talk about sex, and enjoy it <3
