In this insightful episode of Smart Sex, Smart Love, host Dr. Joe Kort welcomes Dr. Ronald Hellman, a distinguished psychiatrist and pioneer in LGBTQ+ mental health advocacy. Together, they delve into the concepts of "homosexism" and "sides," challenging longstanding cultural assumptions about gay male sexuality.Dr. Kort and Dr. Hellman discuss the evolution of the term "side"—coined by Dr. Kort to describe gay men who prefer sexual activities other than anal intercourse—and how it has gained acceptance across dating apps and the broader LGBTQ+ community. Dr. Hellman shares his academic perspective on homosexism, a form of prejudice that narrowly defines gay male sex as exclusively involving anal intercourse, while invalidating other forms of erotic intimacy. He emphasizes that research spanning over a century shows that oral sex and mutual masturbation are actually more common among gay men than anal sex.The conversation also explores how media portrayals, outdated medical assessments, and a lack of proper education reinforce these misconceptions, negatively impacting self-esteem and sexual identity within the gay community. Dr. Hellman calls for more accurate representations of male intimacy and greater awareness across all spectrums of sexuality.Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the diversity of sexual expression, the importance of validating different experiences, and the need to dismantle cultural biases in both popular media and healthcare. Dr. Hellman also hints at his upcoming book, Loving Arrangements, focused on open relationships, due out from Rutgers University Press in 2025.

“For a while, we thought we were a fluke in the system,” announces Samantha Wynn Greenstone, a social media influencer and actor who “came out” less than two years ago about her unconventional marriage to a gay man. Through social media communications with Smart Sex, Smart Love host, Joe Kort, Greenstone and her husband, Jacob Hoff, finally were able to “label” their relationship as “mixed orientation.”  The couple fell in love, were married last November, and have been talking about their monogamous relationship – a “soulful connection” – as Hoff describes it, in People Magazine, The New York Times and social media. “It was a pivotal moment to finally take the leap and decide to share our story,” says Hoff during this Smart Sex, Smart Love podcast. It's natural for the couple to be under critical eyes when they chose to go public with their story. Greenstone is straight, and she knew Hoff was gay soon after their friendship began eight years ago. People don't believe they can be monogamous; they suspect Hoff will be (or has been) unfaithful, they label him bisexual and not gay, they say the marriage is a sham, they believe conversion therapy is involved, they assume Greenstone couldn't find a straight man to marry … and the theories go on and on because most people are skeptical that a straight woman and a gay man can be in a loving, monogamous relationship. The reality of this mixed orientation marriage is that it is working very well, and the couple is in love, happy, content, secure and completely committed to each other. “Jacob shows up for me more than anyone has ever shown up for me in my life,” Greenstone says. “He makes it clear how important I am to him every day and how much me being in his life means to him. Any doubt in my head is gone. He is in it for the long run.” Listen to my podcast to learn about the “pure love story” of Samantha Wynn Greenstone and Jacob Hoff and how mixed orientation marriages can be successful.

Brittani and Paul discuss the current offerings of a Premarital & Commitment Relationship Counseling Program for LGBTQIA+ Couples and a Healthy Relationship Dynamics program for LGBTQIA + Couples (for those who have been together for a time).  Also discussed: What each program entails, why they can be effective, the research surrounding couples therapy in the LGBTQIA+ community, why health insurance doesn't cover couples counseling, Research and Literature by Julie Tilsen and Joe Kort, Drs. Julie and John Gottman's love lab, existential couples therapy, solution-focused couples therapy, and more.

It's common among people to have all sorts of different diverse relationship attachment style.  Pressure on the LGBTQIA+ community to get married, and prove “to the community” that our relationships also have love, commitments, sacredness and thus there is pressure. Why did you create these programs? Little to no premarital counseling programs designed for queer relationships in the Grand Rapids, MI area Only a handful of therapists and group practices that are trauma informed and affirming of LGBTQIA+ folx To provide representation that queer couples and those who may be partnered with someone that may not be straight also are deserving of the same services the straight people have access to Brittani Decess, LLPC is a mental health therapist at Health For Life Counseling and has been practicing since September 2021.  Brittani identifies as a queer cis-gendered white female and uses she/her pronouns .

In my first Smart Sex, Smart Love podcast for Season 4, I opened it quite explosively with featured guest, Boyslut Zachary Zane, as he likes to be called.At the young age of 32, Zachary is quite accomplished. He is a Brooklyn-based columnist, sex expert, author and activist whose work focuses on sexuality, culture and the LGBTQIA community. Recently, he wrote a book, Boyslut: A Memoir and Manifesto, and we talked about it – very openly, candidly and explicitly.Bisexuality has had very little visibility over the years, Zachary notes. “I felt so alone and so isolated; I didn't think bisexuality was real.” When Zachary started learning he was not alone and there was a huge, unnoticed community of bisexuals, “it was a voice not represented, and that is why I wrote the book, Boyslut: A Memoir and Manifesto,” which describes his journey and how he was able to overcome his sexual shame. “If talking about sex is uncomfortable, good! It's time to start unpacking these feelings and talk about the subject … graphically and explicitly,” he announces.“Get loud and obnoxious about your bisexuality! We are real, we exist, and we are not alone! Shout it out! Sex can be so much more fun if we can reduce sexual shame!”To learn more about Zachary Zane and his bisexual journey, listen to this Smart Sex, Smart Love podcast, hosted by Dr. Joe Kort.

A therapist who treats LGBTQ clients often must be more than “gay friendly.” Clinical experience, scientific research, and cultural understanding are advancing rapidly, and the task of being LGBTQ informed is ever-changing in today's world.This book covers topics such as how to avoid making the common mistake of believing that "a couple is a couple," thus treating LGBTQ couples the same as their heterosexual counterparts; how to treat clients struggling in "mixed" orientation marriages and relationships (straight and LGBTQ spouses in the same couple); and how to work with all clients who have non-heteronormative sexual behaviors and practices. Perhaps most importantly, the book discusses covert cultural sexual abuse (the trauma suffered from having to suppress one's own sexual and gender identity) as well as the difficult process of coming out to family and friends. A therapist's job is to help clients and their identities through their own lens and not anyone else's—especially the therapist's. The gay affirmative principles put forward in this book will help you build a stronger relationship with your LGBTQ clients and become the go-to therapist in your area.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Ep 198: Sex is Messy, Dirty, & Pleasurable, Understanding Our Sexuality with Dr. Joe Kort. "Sexuality and erotic interests are not clean. They are messy, nuanced, smelly, dirty, prideful, pleasurable, shameful, and we have to make room for all of that and not try to clean it up and try to make it a textbook thing," said Dr. Joe Kort. This is the last sentence he said in the interview and I think it's so very right, poignant, and definitely an accurate statement. Sex is all of those things, and even more! And it's certainly not cookie-cutter or so-called "normal". There is no normal. And why should there be? We are all individuals, as is each of our sexualities.Listen to and learn from our amazing discussion! He has years and years of experience, he's so knowledgeable about sex and relationships. We chatted about all things sexuality. He shared about his journey coming out as a gay man in the seventies, how his mom was enlightened enough to get him help, but how he also fell into the trap of being labeled with a sexual addiction, which he later learned was false as with time he learned more about sexual health and reframed his mindset to a much healthier one. He became a therapist in response to his journey.He counsels predominantly heterosexual couples, and he shared some very interesting stories from his practice.He talked about how our sexual orientation is not in the acts we do, but rather it's who we are. He talked about how we need to shed shame, and how the worldviews have changed regarding gay/lesbian people. We also chatted about how trans people are being stigmatized now.We talked about sexual orientation, masturbation, erotic compassion, cracking our erotic code, and how what's driving it isn't even about sex at all. He highlighted the importance of shedding shame for healthier sexuality and how couples really need to harness the mindset of having erotic compassion for one another, and not judge each other for their fantasies.

Have you ever wondered if you might be in a relationship with a narcissist? Narcissism comes in many forms. Some obvious, others....not so obvious. Being in a relationship with someone with narcissistic tendencies can be emotionally draining and deplete your self-esteem, but hope is available. Today, I chat with relationship expert Joe Kort on how to recognize the signs and develop an exit strategy if that's what you think you need. We also chat about what it means to come from a narcissistic family and shed light on lesser-known components of narcissism such as “narcissistic injuries” and “narcissistic defenses.”If you have a question or a story you would like to share, you can submit it at loveandlibido.com.

Sex and Psychology Podcast

Men who have sex with men often identify themselves in terms of sexual positions, such as top, bottom, or versatile to reference the role they prefer to take during anal sex. But what if none of those terms describe you? Today's episode is all about the growing number of gay and bisexual men who identify as "sides," or people who aren't into penetrative anal sex. I am joined by Dr Joe Kort, the clinical director and founder of The Center for Relationship and Sexual Health in Royal Oak, Michigan. He is a board-certified clinical sexologist and author of four books. Joe was the first person to coin the term "side" and his efforts to raise awareness of it recently led the sex and dating app Grindr to start offering it as an option for identifying oneself. Some of the topics we explore in this show include: How do gay and bisexual men define "sex?" And what are their most common sexual behaviors? Why is there so much pressure to identify yourself as a sexual position in the gay community? Why are some men into anal sex while others are not? What does it mean to identify as a "side?" And how many gay and bisexual men are sides? How can people be more respectful of others who have different sexual activity preferences without shaming them for wanting something different? What are the positive and negative aspects of identifying yourself as a sexual position?

Kissing?! Blecchhh! A 33 year old woman is a bit of a late bloomer. She has just started dating, and likes to have sex. But the kissing? It disgusts her. Her shrink told her she just hasn't met the right guy. But she knows better. She doesn't like to kiss and that's that. How can she tell her fellas this?  A bi woman is into daddy dom/little girl play. But she was incensed to see a warning on Porn Hub comparing her harmless kink to child pornography. Porn Hub is riddled with far darker stuff. Why Porn Hub, why?!! On the Magnum, Dan chats with the good Doctor Joe Kort, who coined the term “sides.” Sides are gay men who aren't into anal sex (but do plenty of other things.) They talk about the weird reaction sides get from both gay and straight folks, and also about first loves, the unwarranted herpes stigma, and meet sleazys. You should listen to this conversation but we warn you- you're gonna feel good… And, a woman wants Dan to call her dad and berate him for getting in so many toxic relationships and then complaining about it to his daughter.

If you're a regular listener of the podcast, you probably know the difference between gender identity (whether you identify as male, female, or nonbinary) and sexual orientation (straight, gay, or somewhere in between). But how much do you know about erotic orientation? Simply put, erotic orientation describes the kinds of things that turn us on. Interestingly, however, erotic orientation doesn't always line up with commonly held assumptions about gender identity and sexual orientation. For instance, some straight men enjoy sex with other men. Some lesbian women get turned on by heterosexual porn. Confused? Don't worry. Today's guest, Dr. Joe Kort, is here to break it all down. An expert on gender identity, sexual orientation, and erotic orientation, he'll help make sense of the complexities of sexual behavior. Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp, an online therapy platform that has already helped millions.

When we break the news to women that they have breast cancer, it is one of the most difficult conversations to have; and even though we've had these talks countless times, they never get easier. Our patients are anxious and worried; the information we are giving them will change their life forever. As surgeons, we have the skills to heal them physically, but emotional healing is another story.During The Breast of Everything podcast, Dr. Joe Kort, a psychotherapist and director of The Center for Relationship and Sexual Health in Royal Oak, Michigan, shares his insights about breast cancer and grief, and how to help women effectively deal emotionally with their diagnosis.Allow yourself some time to feel angry and upset. When you express these feelings – verbally or in writing – it tends to help you let go of them. For spouses, they also are dealing with the emotional toll of your diagnosis. They feel helpless; allow them to be helpful. Even though cancer patients often are not willing to ask for help and want to remain in charge, remember that your partner wants to help you. Let him. What about the kids? Do you tell them you have cancer? How do you tell them? What is the best approach? First, don't lie to them. Kids know. They will sense something is wrong. Tell them the truth but in terms understandable for their age. They may blame themselves, thinking they were bad and that is why you got cancer. Reassure them. Be real, provide the facts, and keep it as positive as possible. Listen to them and answer their questions the best way you can. Breast cancer patients not only grieve over their diagnosis, but also over how their cancer may change their appearance. They may never look or feel the same way again, they believe. Their breasts are part of their sexuality and they worry about losing that. How will their spouse react? Will it affect their relationship? Breast cancer can be a growth experience for couples depending how each person is coping with the diagnosis. Grief can take unexpected forms. Expect the unexpected. Expect guilt, expect self-blame, expect blaming others. Women are faced with a whole new set of issues they never have encountered before in their life.  During this time, find ways to help yourself relax, try to stay as active as you can, keep your life as routine as you can, try to find activities that bring you joy, and control what you can control and let go of what you cannot control. It is important to know there is help and support if you need it. Talk with your physician and seek counseling if you feel you need additional help.

On November 10th, at the age of 71, Rich died suddenly. Rich Simon was editor of The Psychotherapy Networker magazine for more than 40 years. It keeps clinicians up-to-date on best practices and innovations in counseling techniques. We talk about grief with the world's foremost expert on the subject, David Kessler, co-author and protégé to the late, great Elizabeth Kubler-Ross who developed the Five Stages of Grief.
