Send us a textComplementarians use a lot of really nice-sounding words to describe their beliefs about gender roles, but when you actually break down what they mean, they're not talking about roles at all—they're talking about hierarchy. In this episode, Keith and I decode all the euphemisms like "different roles," "servant leadership," and "his headship is for your protection" to show what complementarians are really saying: that men should be in authority over women. The problem is, when you actually implement these beliefs in marriage, we see relationships struggle—and the statistics bear that out. And we work directly against the gospel, putting the husband in the place of Jesus.

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) Can you explain what role-playing games are? What would you recommend for guys, so it doesn't come off as weird when I suggest it? I want something that women would find sexy and attractive. Also, do you really need to buy expensive costumes?2) After I've had intercourse with my girlfriend, she often asks me to give her oral sex if she hasn't had an orgasm. Am I being squeamish for not doing this?3) How do you stop friends from meddling in your relationships? My friends dissect everything: how fast a guy texts back and the emojis he uses; they pour over his social media and put a negative spin on everything. I know they're being protective because I've made some bad choices in the past, but they almost bully me into ending relationships they think I shouldn't be in. I don't want to lose their friendship, and I've asked them to butt out, but they continue to give unasked for opinions.To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

What does great sex really mean? And why is the simplest question – “What do you really want?” – often the hardest one to answer?In this episode of The Weekly Hot Spot, Mistress Olivia and Mistress Erika sit down with the brilliant Dr. Jaime Grant – researcher, LGBTQ+ advocate, and author of Great Sex: Mapping Your Desire – for a conversation that dismantles shame, celebrates pleasure, and redefines intimacy from the inside out.This isn't just a talk about kink or technique. It's a deep dive into the emotional archaeology of desire – how shame, silence, and societal scripts keep us from claiming our deepest pleasures, especially when those desires feel taboo. Dr. Grant opens with a powerful admission: she got into this work because she was a “liar” – performing a version of herself to survive a repressive Irish Catholic upbringing. “We all develop a liar,” she explains, “and that liar shows up in our sexuality.” Whether you're a submissive wrestling with guilt, a sissy navigating feminization, or someone whose fantasies clash with their identity, this episode meets you where you are – without judgment.The conversation turns to the “purge cycle” – that all-too-familiar pattern where submissives and sissies throw away their toys and clothes in shame, only to rebuild their collections once again. Dr. Grant reframes this not as failure, but as desire breaking through. Then comes the practical magic. Dr. Grant introduces her “Name Tag Exercise” – a fun exercise tool where you introduce yourself not by your job or role, but by three words that describe your core desires. Words like slut, rope enthusiast, curious, neuro spicy, bootlicker, orgasm controller. Mistress Erika shares hers: “Fun. Curious. Obey.” Mistress Olivia, ever the wordsmith, lands on “Control as Connection,” “Intellectual Eroticism,” and “Transformation.” She reveals how power exchange, for her, is a form of artistic expression – a “ballet” of sensual influence – and how she's turned on more by minds than bodies, drawn to “the space between words.”But the mapping goes deeper. Dr. Grant applies desire mapping to orgasm control, chastity, and tease/denial – not as games of endurance, but as rituals of presence. “If you're just going through the motions,” she says, “it's choreography, not connection.” True power play begins when you're grounded in what actually moves you – the raw, vulnerable parts of yourself that turn you on because they feel dangerous.Fantasy, she insists, is not disloyalty – it's breadcrumbs. Your roleplay scenarios, dark power exchanges, and gender-bending dreams aren't distractions from real desire – they are the map. And if someone tries to police your inner world? “You're with the wrong person."The episode closes with a radical truth: You already have everything you need. The voice of shame – that internal critic whispering, "You shouldn't want this" – that voice is not yours. It's the echo of a priest, a parent, a culture.Desire mapping helps you trace that voice back to its source, so you stop obeying it and start honoring your sacred material: your body, your history, your truth.If you've ever felt like an imposter in your own pleasure… If you've silenced a fantasy because it didn't fit your identity… If you've wondered why surrender feels so terrifying – and so freeing……this episode is your invitation to map your desire – not apologize for it.Tune in. Listen closely. And start asking yourself the question that changes everything:What do you really want?Books by Dr. Jaime Grant on AmazonReach out to Dr. Grant for readings or coaching at jaimemgrant@gmail.com and catch her podcast at www.justsexpodcast.comContact us:Mistress Olivia:Email: Olivia@EnchantrixEmpire.com.

Send us a textWe're diving into part two of our discussion on Francine Rivers' "And the Shofar Blew.” While Christian fiction can be inspirational, this novel reinforces dangerous theology about marriage, telling abuse victims to stay and suffer "better," portraying women who report pastoral abuse as liars, and presenting an incredibly sexist view of women's roles in the church as normal and godly. Join me and my friends Merry, Sarah, and Joanna as we unpack why books like these—even though they're just fiction—profoundly shape how Christian women understand marriage, faith, and their own worth.THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOROrder Dorothy Greco's book For the Love of Women which just launched this week!TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Give to the Good Fruit Faith Initiative of the Bosko FoundationJoin our email list!LINKS MENTIONED: Find Sarah McDugal on FacebookSarah's help for women healing from betrayal trauma: www.wildernesstowild.comFor women navigating high-conflict divorce or custody: My Freedom NavigatorFind Dr. Merry Lin's book "Rebecoming" and listen in to her Bare Marriage podcast episode!Support the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Marriage You Want and the Study Guide The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.
We live in a sex saturated world. It's an unfortunate reality that children are getting exposed to inappropriate materials earlier and earlier. As parents, it's our job to guide our children and protect them to the best of our ability. One of the best ways we can do this is by having open and honest conversations with them around sex, sexuality and pornography early, and often. But how can we do this in age appropriate ways? In this episode we are sharing specific concepts and ideas to communicate to your children as well as navigating which types of topics and conversations to have at which ages.. We also mentioned several podcast episodes and resources and those are listed below!

Send us a textWe're doing something we've never done before—looking at a Christian fiction book to explore how fiction shapes our theology of marriage. Today we're discussing Francine Rivers' "And the Shofar Blew.” We're talking about how fiction doesn't give explicit advice but still profoundly influences our worldview about faith and marriage, and how even books with problematic messages can become part of our theological foundation without us realizing it.

Send us a text We're diving into the euphemisms used in Christian marriage books and by evangelical pastors, and when you translate them into actual language, it gets real creepy real fast. From Kevin Leman's "Mr. Happy" to Josh Butler's semen theology, these authors hide harmful messages behind flowery or vague language. When authors tell women to "give him a gift" while she's bleeding heavily or recovering from childbirth, they're actually telling her to perform sex acts while in pain—and that's just wrong. Most disturbing? The euphemisms that hide sexual assault and make it sound normal.THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORPre-order Dorothy Greco's book For the Love of Women which launches next week!Our CoursesCheck out The Whole Story!, our puberty course for parents/kidsCheck out our Orgasm Course!TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Give to the Good Fruit Faith Initiative of the Bosko FoundationJoin our email list!OUR BOOKS WE MENTIONED:The Marriage You Want (and the new video series that goes with it!)She Deserves BetterLINKS MENTIONED:Fred Stoeker's Focus on the Family interviewJosh Howerton and the Shady Little Girls in MiniskirtsOur article on Josh Butler's book A Beautiful UnionSupport the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Marriage You Want and the Study Guide The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.
Most men were never taught how to have a healthy sex life. Porn, shame, and silence replaced real intimacy—and it's destroying connection, confidence, and marriages.In this episode, Craig talks with men's coach Rob Kansler about what it really takes to create great sex and a great life. They explore how porn and peak release cycles disconnect men from their partners, why integrity and nervous system regulation are key, and how healthy sexuality transforms everything—from your marriage to your purpose.If you're a married man ready to move from addiction and secrecy to clarity, strength, and connection, this conversation will hit home.Learn more: MindfulHabitHelp.comTake the Men of Substance Bedroom Compass Assessment – know exactly where you stand with the universal building blocks of a great sex life: BedroomCompass.comConnect with Rob: RobKansler.comSocials: @robkanclerAbout Rob Kansler:Rob Kancler is an artist, athlete, entrepreneur, and modern mystic.

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) My husband left me for a much younger woman. It happened two months ago, so the shock is wearing off, but I have no clue how to recover from this. I'm 51 and my husband is 55. He left me for a woman who is 30.2) If you could go back in time and give advice to your younger self about sex, knowing what you know now, what would it be? 3) What do you think would happen if you stopped all sexual activity, including masturbation? Would you go insane? Is it different for men and women? I am a man and just curious—I'm not going to try this.To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) A simple question for you: what do people use dildos for? I get why a vibrator is appealing, but why would a couple need one?2) I'm in a new relationship with the most patient, loving man. He gives me the most fantastic oral sex, often bringing me to orgasm without a toy. But, he suffers from terrible PE and will orgasm just from giving oral sex. What can I do to help him, as I would love to be properly penetrated again? We're not young. 3) My girlfriend and I have been together two years. I'm mid 40s and she's 13 years younger than me. We're both into the idea of a threesome, but can't decide whether to have FFM or MFM. My girlfriend thinks a threesome once a month sounds like a great plan, but I'm not sure. She's suggested asking our personal trainer who is very hot and single. I think it should be an escort, which I have used in the past.

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I've been single for a few years and was desperate for sex, so started an affair with a friend of a friend. I knew he was married, and it's not my style to sleep with married men, but we all got drunk at a party and it happened. The sex was incredible, so we did it again. We've been meeting for sex about once a fortnight for a year now. To me, that's all it is—sex. So imagine my surprise when he told me he wants to leave his wife for me. I have no interest at all in a relationship with him. He's said he's hinted to her that there might be someone else and told the mutual friend who introduced us what's been going on. I'm going to come out of this looking very bad. How do I manage it?2) I've been with my husband for 13 years and our sex is pretty good. We both used to take turns initiating sex, which is about once a week. Lately, he's stopped initiating and leaves it up to me. He's very happy to have sex when I do, but I don't like it. I gently asked why he's stopped taking the lead, and he said he hadn't noticed any change so I just let it drop, but it's bothering me. 3) I'm 31 and my boyfriend of two years is 25. We're both really open about sex and he admitted early on to being addicted to porn and masturbation. He hasn't done either—watched porn or masturbated—for over a year now. He's in such a healthy place that I asked him if he wanted to start again. He was adamant that he doesn't, for fear of becoming addicted again. Is that likely? I'm at a loss of what to do because I don't want him to feel unloved or restricted.To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

In this episode of The Naked Gospel Podcast, Nick Liberto and Wailer tackle one of the boldest claims you'll ever hear: great sex could actually save the world. They unpack why God's design for intimacy is about so much more than pleasure; it's about discipleship, family legacy, and cultural transformation. From biblical insights to historical lessons from the fall of Rome, this conversation reframes sex as central to both marriage and mission.Along the way, they confront the lies the church has inherited, expose how silence has crippled generations, and paint a compelling vision of what happens when couples embrace sex as holy, purposeful, and deeply joyful. Whether you're single, married, or raising kids, this episode will challenge how you think about intimacy and inspire you to see it as one of God's greatest gifts for personal and global renewal.Support the show

Great sex doesn't just happen, it's something we build and nurture over time. This week, we're joined by Dr. Maria Sophocles, a nationally recognized OB-GYN, menopause and sexual health expert, and fierce advocate for women's pleasure. She's here to talk about why rethinking sex in your 20s and 30s is the key to having great sex for life, how to close the “bedroom gap,” and why better sex education matters for every generation. Why your 20s and 30s set the stage for lifelong sexual health. Dr. Sophocles explains how your early approach to intimacy impacts desire, connection, and pleasure as you age. The bedroom gap and why it matters. Learn what the bedroom gap is, why women are most impacted, and how we can close it. The missing piece in most sex education. We talk about why traditional sex ed focuses on fear instead of pleasure and how that leaves us unprepared. How to rethink sex as a skill you can grow. From communication to curiosity, Dr. Sophocles shows us why sex isn't static and how it can keep evolving. The role of menopause in sexual health. Understand how desire and arousal change in midlife and what support actually works. Why talking about sex matters. Breaking down shame and silence is the first step toward better intimacy and pleasure. Practical steps for better sex at any age. Dr. Sophocles shares accessible tips for people to feel more confident and connected in the bedroom. Connect with Dr. Sophocles: Preorder "The Bedroom Gap" HERE!

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) What's your view on ‘O-shots'? My friend had one after menopause and says it rejuvenated her vagina back to what it was in her 30s. She says sex is amazing again. They are expensive, but I'm tempted. Are they safe, and what's your take on them?2) So I know what you're going to tell me, but I'm asking anyway: I'm 43, divorced, and have been single for three years. My daughter is 24 and recently broke up with her boyfriend. Her ex and I always ‘play flirted,' and I've always found him sexy. But, I got quite a shock when he texted me after the breakup saying he can't stop thinking of me and would I consider meeting up with him. My body screams yes—I haven't had sex in two years and would kill to do it with him—but what would my daughter say if she found out? I feel like I deserve this, but don't want to put my relationship with her in jeopardy. 3) What do you do when you can't leave an unhappy marriage? I've been belittled by my partner for years and he's behaved extremely badly. I stayed because my self-esteem was so low. Just when I'd plucked up the courage to leave—after telling friends the truth of what's been going on—he delivers his news: he's been diagnosed with cancer. I know what I'm in for—my life will now be spent caring for a man who doesn't deserve the kindness this will take. But what would people say if I up and left now?To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

Send us a textWe all want to raise kids without sexual hang-ups, but a lot of Christian parents are accidentally creating the very problems they're trying to avoid. Rebecca and I dive into the three biggest ways this happens: being way too open about your own sex life with your kids (no, they don't need to know what you and your husband did last night), making a federal case out of normal teenage sexual development like masturbation, and approaching pornography with so much shame and "sin talk" that you actually make the problem worse. But here's the good news: our course, The Whole Story, will give you the tools and language to appropriately talk about all of these things!Then Keith joins me to tackle that age-old marriage question about whether wives just need to have more sex to make husbands nicer - spoiler alert: you're asking the wrong question entirely, and obligation sex isn't going to save your marriage.THE WHOLE STORY COURSE!Check out our sex and puberty course--it's on sale until Monday September 22 at midnight!

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) You've talked about penis size and sensitivity, but I haven't heard you talk about clitoris size in that regard. I used to have a normal size clitoris, but after taking testosterone to help with low libido, it seems to have tripled in size. I have stronger orgasms now—but it takes so much longer to climax. I can't figure out the right spot anymore: the sensitive area seems to have moved. Any advice on how to find it again?2) My boyfriend is obsessed with one of my friends. I've only met her recently and she is very attractive and posts a lot online. I trust him, but I recently caught him masturbating while watching a video of her online. It's completely freaked me out. Does this mean he's going to leave me for her or would rather be with her? 3) How can you tell if your partner is a sex addict? My new partner has admitted to a history of repeated cheating, and, while he wants lots of sex, he seems disconnected from me. He never makes eye contact during sex. My gut tells me something isn't right. I don't know him well enough to tell if he's watching lots of porn, but he is paranoid about me picking up his phone. Am I overreacting or sensing something?To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

Most men think great sex is about technique. However, women secretly crave something entirely different. In this podcast, I reveal the five things women wish men knew about what really turns them on. Miss these, and you'll always feel like something's missing in the bedroom.
Send us a textWe're constantly told that more sex will fix our marriages, but the research tells a completely different story. When couples are simply told to increase frequency without addressing quality, satisfaction, and women's actual experiences, it often backfires and decreases desire altogether. The real predictor of marital happiness isn't how often you're having sex—it's whether that sex is mutually satisfying, intimate, and pleasurable for both people. Unfortunately, evangelical sex advice keeps pushing obligation sex messages that treat women's exhaustion and needs as obstacles to overcome rather than valid concerns. It's time we start asking better questions about what makes sex actually good instead of just demanding more of it.OUR SPONSOR:Check out the book Better Ways to Read the Bible--to transform the way you see Scripture, and let it come alive again if it's been used as a weapon against you.TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Join our email list!LINKS MENTIONED:The Orgasm Course Psychology Today article on sexual frequency and happinessFocus on the Family State of Marriage in America surveyThe Whole Story puberty course for kids (coupon code: PODCAST)Our reel about the 24 hour ruleSupport the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.
In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) My marriage has been sexless for five years—literally, no sex at all. I tried everything to make my wife see how important sex is, but she refused to even talk about it. We're young—in our early 40s! It's strained our marriage beyond repair; so, I asked her for a divorce. Instantly, everything changed. She initiated sex the night I told her, and we've had sex twice a day since. It's good, enthusiastic sex and she appears to be up for anything. I don't understand what this means and am too scared to ask. The million-dollar question is: will this last? Are our problems finally solved?2) I've been with my partner for five years and it's the best sex I've had with anyone. But now, it feels repetitive and boring. I'm keen to push boundaries, like I did with my previous boyfriend, but he's not willing to step outside his comfort zone. I suggested we find a partner for each other and watch, or go to sex club and just watch others. He says it's not in his character to do those things. He's not even interested in watching porn—I watch it by myself. What now? 3) My wife can only orgasm while lying on her stomach with her legs closed and using a vibrator. We've talked about it and tried many other techniques, but this seems to be the only way that works for her. Should I continue to encourage her to experiment and try new techniques? How can we avoid things becoming boring for both of us, especially me?

Send us a textI brought together three dear friends to have an honest conversation about perimenopause and menopause because so many of you have been asking about it. We shared our real stories and talked about the challenges like brain fog, weight changes, and sexual adjustments, and my dry eyes that nearly drove me crazy! But here's what I want you to know: menopause isn't just about suffering through symptoms. Each of us found our voices during menopause, finally standing up in toxic relationships and getting angry about toxic teachings we'd tolerated for years.

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) My husband has recently discovered Viagra and now takes it every time we have sex. Rather than save our sex life, it's destroyed it. His penis is now too hard, he takes ages to orgasm, and his focus is almost exclusively on intercourse. Before Viagra, we had lots of foreplay and oral sex. I've told him I don't like it, but he still takes it.2) Should men also do pelvic floor exercises? Do they enhance sex for us as well as for women? If so, how do we do them? I gather there are quite a range of muscles down there which do subtly different things.3) I'm a man in my late fifties and while I've had various friendships with women, none have resulted in anything romantic or sexual. What do I say if I did meet someone and the subject of past relationships were to come up? The lack of experience with sex and love is embarrassing. Also, what if I never meet someone? This greatly concerns me. To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

Ever feel like you're doing everything for everyone and still falling short? That's the mental load, and it might be silently sabotaging your business, your relationships, and your sanity. Today's guest is Dr. Morgan Cutlip: a psychologist, relationship expert, and author on a mission to help women feel whole, light, and deeply connected in all their relationships. With a PhD in psychology and a knack for translating research into real-life solutions, she's helped hundreds of thousands of people navigate the complexities of love, family, and partnership. Her books Love Your Kids Without Losing Yourself and her upcoming title A Better Share tackle the emotional and mental responsibilities women disproportionately carry, especially when it comes to marriage, motherhood, and yes, running a business.

We're diving into how the mental load affects your business, your boundaries, and your personal life, and what you can do to take some of that weight off. Want to go deeper?

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I'm a 26-year-old straight guy and I'm having no luck with women. I'm curious to know what you think of AI girlfriends. I'm tempted to try one until I meet someone in real life that I really like. Is it a good way to practice relationship skills? Is there anything I should know before I sign up?2) I've met someone and we have AMAZING sexual chemistry. But when we're not having sex, conversation is difficult, and I ask all the questions. We have mutual friends and things in common, so it should be easy. I told him I feel nervous around him, and he says he feels the same. We haven't been on a date yet, but he's planning one and I'm scared it will be awkward. We're both usually loud, chatty people so it's a bit of a shock that we can't be like that out of bed.3) Can you talk about the different types of relationship models there are, including open relationships?To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I followed your advice and asked my partner for something I'd like him to do in bed. He did it, and all was good. But now he doesn't do it anymore and I'm tired of asking nicely and dropping hints. What now?2) You've talked about ‘hot-wifing,' but what about ‘hot husbanding'? Do women get turned on watching their husbands with another woman in the same way men get off on watching their wives with another man? I suppose it's every man's fantasy for their wife to want that in a way. Cheating with permission! I'm curious if it's a thing.3) My wife and I are in our mid 60s, still in love, and having sex. But intercourse is increasingly painful for her. She's seen a very sympathetic female GP and tried HRT and other things, but nothing has worked. Any suggestions on what might be the issue and how to continue having sex? Toys don't do it for her, and she's gone off giving and receiving oral sex.To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I've listened to enough of your podcasts to know that women don't often orgasm through intercourse alone. But, is there anything a man can do to make that more possible, apart from holding a vibrator on her clitoris while he is inside her? My penis is starting to get a complex!2) I've recently lost a lot of weight through the weight loss jab. I'm thrilled with the results—except for the effect on my sex life. My husband and I stopped having sex years ago because I felt too fat. I don't think he found me sexually attractive at that weight, anyway. He's thrilled that I'm back to the same weight I was when we met and clearly expects us to resume having sex. The thing is, I don't want to. I never did enjoy sex much, but I have zero interest now. Not sure if that's a side effect of the drug? I look sexier, but don't feel it. What do I do?3) How safe are glass dildos? I'm tempted to buy one but worry they'll break inside me.

Send us a textHow do we reach people still in evangelicalism about toxic teachings? I read an amazing book called On Authoritarians by Bob Altemeyer which talks about how people get to be authoritarian, and the nature of authoritarians. And then shows (horrifyingly) how evangelicalism overlaps with authoritarianism!

In this bonus episode of Sex with Emily, Dr. Emily breaks down the top 10 red flags in bed that go beyond bad technique—these are the behaviors that can seriously impact your safety, intimacy, and sexual satisfaction. From partners who never ask what you like to those who skip foreplay entirely, we explore the warning signs that indicate deeper issues around sexual awareness, communication, and respect. We dive into why these red flags matter, including partners who don't take feedback, make orgasm the only goal, ignore consent, lead with ego, and vanish emotionally after sex. Dr. Emily also addresses those who shame your fantasies, avoid sexual health conversations, and expect mind-reading instead of open communication. This isn't about shaming anyone—it's about recognizing patterns early so you can advocate for your needs and build healthier, more connected sexual experiences. Whether you're dating, in a relationship, or just want to know what to watch out for, this episode gives you the tools to identify red flags and prioritize partners who truly care about mutual pleasure and respect.
