Podcasts about monogamous

Got some sh!t to say?Marko and Steve are tackling one of gay culture's longest-standing debates — literally. This week, it's all about penis size and the ever-fascinating world of size queens. Why are we so obsessed with measurements, and does it actually matter when the lights go out? The guys go deep (pun intended) asking the hard questions: length or girth? And is it really about the motion of the ocean — or just having a bigger boat? To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.-Articles:Garcôn | Unraveling the Truth about Penis SizeQueerty | Gay Guys Sing the Praises of Smaller & Average-Sized MenLGBT Hero | Goldicocks: the penis issueSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

This week, DB reflects on last week's fantastic conversation with Dr. Claire Perelman. Let's take a moment to really unpack jealousy and envy, no matter if you're ENM or monogamous. What does jealousy say about us -- and what does it not? There's a sense of shame around jealousy that we can move past using our emotional honesty and by naming what we're feeling. Plus: a vocab lesson on jealousy versus envy. They're different! JEALOUSY SCRIPTS YOU CAN STEALWhen jealousy pops up mid-scroll: “Hey love, I'm feeling a jealousy pang. I'm going to take 10 minutes to breathe and journal, then could we do a quick check-in about Friday's plans? I think I need a clearer start/stop time so I can plan something for me.” When you need reassurance without rules: “I'm not asking you to stop seeing them. I'm asking for a reassurance ritual--a goodnight text and a Saturday morning debrief. That would help my nervous system a lot.” When you want to celebrate your partner but still have feels: “I'm happy you had a great date, and I'm noticing some jealousy in me. Could we carve 30 minutes tomorrow for us? I want to reconnect.” Repair after a jealous blow-up: “I got flooded and got snappy. I'm sorry. The story in my head was ‘I'm being replaced.' Here's what I'm going to try next time: pause, breathe, then ask for a check-in.” ABOUT SEASON 12 Season 12 of Sex Ed with DB is ALL ABOUT PLEASURE! Solo pleasure. Partnered pleasure. Orgasms. Porn.

Got some sh!t to say?Marko and Steve dive into the big leap of moving for love. Is love alone enough to justify packing up your life? What should your future together actually look like once you make the move? And—maybe the most important question—should you get your own place first or move straight in with your partner?

Got some sh!t to say?In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve dive into the nuanced ways that external influences—like friends, family, societal norms, and even aspects of queer culture—can shape who we date and how we approach relationships. They explore how these pressures can show up subtly or overtly, from internalized ideals about attractiveness and gender roles to the expectations of chosen or biological families. The conversation also considers the potential harm of letting these outside voices drive personal relationship decisions, especially when they lead to choices that aren't aligned with one's authentic needs or desires.

Got some sh!t to say?In this heartfelt and candid conversation, Marko and Steve dive deep into the emotional terrain of relationships where one person is moving faster than the other—whether that means falling in love quicker, being ready for commitment sooner, or simply wanting more clarity and definition early on. They explore the role of communication—how honest conversations can sometimes bring clarity, but also risk ending things when both partners realize they're not aligned, and the delicate balance between giving things time vs. needing emotional certainty. Ultimately, the episode is a reflective take on how relationships can falter not from lack of care, but from a difference in timing—and how that can be just as painful and real as any other kind of ending.-Articles:Marriage.com | 6 Stages in Your Gay RelationshipSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

Are human beings made for monogamy or non-monogamy? This is a popular subject of debate. While some argue that humans evolved for monogamy in order to ensure parental investment in our offspring, others argue that humans evolved to be non-monogamous because it increases the odds of reproductive success and genetic diversity in our species. So which is it? That's what we're going to be talking about today. I am joined by Nathan Lents, a Professor of Biology at John Jay College, where he is the director of the Cell and Molecular Biology program. His research lab studies human genetic evolution and forensic DNA technology. He also writes popular science articles and is the author of the new book The Sexual Evolution: How 500 Millions Years of Sex, Gender, and Mating Shape Modern Relationships. Some of the specific topics we explore include: What’s the difference between social monogamy and sexual monogamy? How common are social and sexual monogamy in both humans and animals, and how often do they overlap? Can research on other primates shed light on how human mating strategies evolved? Can someone’s brain chemistry predispose them to being monogamous or non-monogamous? You can check out Nathan’s website to learn more about his work. Got a sex question?

Got some sh!t to say?In this real and refreshingly honest episode, Marko and Steve get into the heart of why so many relationships struggle: unrealistic expectations and the lack of clear, consistent communication. They kick things off by calling out the myth of the “perfect partner.” You know, the idea that your partner should just know what you need, never mess up, and always be in sync with your every mood. Then they dive into the fix: communication. Not just the deep, dramatic talks, but the everyday stuff — the little check-ins, the honest “I feel” moments, and the courage to say what you actually need without playing games.

Bayowolf and Wolfspearl have been married for 42 years and partners in kink for the last 13. Shibari has become a central part of their journey over the past six years, deepening both their connection and their creativity. About a year and a half ago, with open communication and a deep commitment to their marriage, they chose to begin tying with other people—an experience that has expanded their skills and enriched the bond they share. Both live with autoimmune diseases and actively pursue health and strength through clean eating and an intense fitness regimen, showing that resilience, love, and rope can go hand in hand. In the episode Mya and Fox explore with this delightful couple: • Why they decided to tie with other tops and bottoms • How they explored and agreed what rope with others would look like • Their limits and boundaries to ensure they protect their relationship • What the most challenging topics of discussion were in that conversation • The ways in which they built trust in each other and relaxed some of their boundaries over time • The benefits gained and learnings through tying outside their marriage • Differences between tying with each other versus other people • Being each others' cheerleaders • Integrating into the rope community as a rope top and rope bottom in their sixties • ‘Onboarding' new rope bottoms safely • Their perspective on why there are so few rope bottoms over 35 in the community • Tips for older rope bottoms and tops integrating into a new rope community • And plenty more

Got some sh!t to say?In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve are joined by a special guest from the Minoritea Report podcast to dive into the world of s3x toys—breaking down the stigma, sharing personal experiences (or lack thereof), and exploring how these tools can enhance both single life and relationship.

Got some sh!t to say?In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve dive into the tricky dynamic of "parenting" your partner in a relationship. They explore how taking on a parental role—whether through constant reminders, micromanaging, or handling all responsibilities—can create imbalance, resentment, and even emotional exhaustion.

Today I'm talking about why ambitious men should be monogamous. I know some other guys say different things, and that's cool—but I see it another way. A lot of successful men mess up their careers by getting into drama with women. Most of the time, that doesn't happen to men who are in a real, committed relationship. If you're a man trying to do big things, being with one woman helps you stay focused. Show Notes:  [04:33]#1 Your five forms of investment - time, money, attention, energy and focus, all of those need to be going towards your purpose.  [14:02]#2  When you start achieving, you're going to start to draw attention that has nothing to do with your purpose. You will be tempted by them. A committed relationship can serve as a guardrail that keeps you focused. [32:33]#3  Rarely do you see a single man become mayor, governor, or president. Because a man who's on a pedestal with power is going to attract women. And that has nothing to do with what you are being hired to do.

Got some sh!t to say?Marko and Steve talk about diving headfirst into dating — and even marriage — without knowing what lies ahead. Is it bold and freeing, or just reckless? They explore the thrill (and risk) of saying "yes" to love without all the facts. Then, they're joined by special guest Stefano Reginato Rivelli (@chechoreginato) of Josh and Stefano on Instagram and TikTok (@joshandstefano), who went viral for marrying a stranger on social media. He gives the guys behind-the-scenes insight into what it was really like to say "I do" before ever saying "hello." Would Marko and Steve ever do the same?

Got some sh!t to say?Marko and Steve dive into the topic of threesomes and explore the gay community's fascination with group sex. They ask the question: when did one sexual partner stop being enough? The conversation covers the rise of throuples, casual threesomes, and the cultural and emotional implications of inviting a third into the bedroom. Is it simply about fun and exploration, or could it be a gateway to something more—like polyamory or emotional detachment? The guys keep it honest, messy, and real as always.

Abstract (TL;DR) ⏰After 64 attempts and zero orgasms, I finally understood why 81.6% of women can't reach orgasm from intercourse alone. Here, I uncover the reasons why. I was in a one-year relationship. We were in our teens, and although we had lots of fun penetrative sex in different places, neither of us understood the importance of the female's pleasure in a heterosexual relationship. I cite a research paper where I self-identify as part of the 81.6% of females who cannot orgasm from intercourse alone. Then I share which of the researcher's suggested techniques for helping women orgasm also work for me. These include not feeling rushed, having a partner who knows what I like, and anal stimulation.Subscribe for regular spice

In this episode of The Joe Cohen Show, Joe takes a personal and scientific look at monogamy, exploring why some people feel more content in exclusive relationships than others. He breaks down what research says about the hormone vasopressin and its role in bonding, loyalty, and long-term attachment, drawing from both animal studies and genetic findings. Joe also shares a surprising result from his own supplement routine, where taking L-arginine and glycine seemed to shift his natural tendencies toward greater monogamy. It's a unique mix of biohacking, hormones, and human behavior you won't want to miss.- Check out SelfDecode: https://selfdecode.com/- Join Joe's online community: https://thejoecohenshow.com/ Timestamps:(00:00) Introduction to the Joe Cohen Show(00:16) Exploring Monogamy and Personal Tendencies(02:56) The Role of Vasopressin in Monogamy(05:44) Vasopressin's Impact on Human Relationships(14:14) Personal Experiment with Supplements(22:42) Conclusion and Recommendations

Got some sh!t to say?In this episode, Marko and Steve dive into the nuanced ways that external influences—like friends, family, societal norms, and even aspects of queer culture—can shape who we date and how we approach relationships. They explore how these pressures can show up subtly or overtly, from internalized ideals about attractiveness and gender roles to the expectations of chosen or biological families. The conversation also considers the potential harm of letting these outside voices drive personal relationship decisions, especially when they lead to choices that aren't aligned with one's authentic needs or desires.

On today's episode, we have Jaime Delgado (they/he) joins us for a conversation about the liberation of queer pleasure and community. Together we talk about exploring without a roadmap, reconnecting with the wisdom of our ancestors, and the sexiness of nuance.

“I’m not like a regular mom, I'm a cool mom” - Mean Girls This week, Good Moms celebrate their favorite holiday with some mom juice and cannabis to answer questions from the tribe! The ladies chat about how a single mom’s intuition is built differently (so don’t play with her!), the bachelor party rules of engagement (are you actually supposed to fuck the prostitute)? , disciplining your child (“cool mom” and a “pushover”, and an accidental OnlyFans soft launch. You can expect to hear: 3:00 – Erica talks about actually meeting Nelly 10:45 – The “jet ski” logic behind men and bachelor parties 18:00 – Introducing new partners to your kid (without the awkward sit-down) 30:30 – Being the chill parent without being a push over parent 40:00 – Erica’s foot trauma gets healed… live on air

Got some sh!t to say?In this heartfelt and candid conversation, Marko and Steve dive deep into the emotional terrain of relationships where one person is moving faster than the other—whether that means falling in love quicker, being ready for commitment sooner, or simply wanting more clarity and definition early on. They explore the role of communication—how honest conversations can sometimes bring clarity, but also risk ending things when both partners realize they're not aligned, and the delicate balance between giving things time vs. needing emotional certainty. Ultimately, the episode is a reflective take on how relationships can falter not from lack of care, but from a difference in timing—and how that can be just as painful and real as any other kind of ending.-Articles:Marriage.com | 6 Stages in Your Gay RelationshipSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

Got some sh!t to say?In this real and refreshingly honest episode, Marko and Steve get into the heart of why so many relationships struggle: unrealistic expectations and the lack of clear, consistent communication. They kick things off by calling out the myth of the “perfect partner.” You know, the idea that your partner should just know what you need, never mess up, and always be in sync with your every mood. Then they dive into the fix: communication. Not just the deep, dramatic talks, but the everyday stuff — the little check-ins, the honest “I feel” moments, and the courage to say what you actually need without playing games.

Some gay men don't think monogamy ever works because there's too much temptation out there. At the same time, others think that non-monogamy never works because someone always gets jealous. So what's the truth here? Today, we're doing a deep dive into gay men's relationships and exploring tips for successfully navigating them, whether they’re monogamous or non-monogamous. I am joined by Tom Bruett, a licensed marriage and family therapist, trainer, and consultant who works extensively with the queer community. He is the founder of the Queer Relationship Institute and author of the new book The Go-To Relationship Guide for Gay Men: From Honeymoon to Lasting Commitment. Some of the specific topics we explore include: How can you figure out what type of relationship is best for you, without feeling pressured? What do gay men who want to be monogamous need to know? What do you do when you and your partner want different kinds of relationship? Do you need to be monogamous first before opening up a relationship? What are the key ingredients of a successful non-monogamy agreement? You can check out Tom’s website to learn more about his work. Got a sex question?

Got some sh!t to say?Marko and Steve dive into the tricky dynamic of "parenting" your partner in a relationship. They explore how taking on a parental role—whether through constant reminders, micromanaging, or handling all responsibilities—can create imbalance, resentment, and even emotional exhaustion. They discuss how this pattern often leads to one partner feeling overwhelmed and the other feeling infantilized, which can erode intimacy and mutual respect. Marko and Steve also share insights on how to shift out of this unhealthy dynamic, set boundaries, and build a more equal partnership. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.-Articles:Parade | 11 Common Signs You're 'Parenting' Your Partner, According to PsychologistsForbes | 3 Signs You Play The ‘Parent' In Your Relationship—By A PsychologistSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

They start by defining complacency as a state of stagnation, and discuss moments in their lives where they may have been complacent by themselves or with a partner, and how they got past it.

CrowdScience listener Alina is in a relationship with a polyamorous partner and is very happy with this arrangement, which got her thinking – why is monogamy so often the norm in human societies?Presenter Caroline Steel goes on an anthropological odyssey to figure out where this drive to find a single partner - and stick with them - comes from. What can science tell us about how human relationships developed, and whether having one or many partners is more 'natural'? Evolutionary biologist Kit Opie of the University of Bristol joins us at London Zoo to help us understand the mating systems of our closest primate relatives. To find out how polygamy developed in some parts of the world we speak to anthropologist Katie Starkweather of the University of Illinois Chicago. And we learn about the chemistry of bonding from Sarah Blumenthal at Emory University, who explains how the brains of prairie voles may give us clue about the neurochemicals which shape human relationships.

This is Amy's third time on the show, and today she's back to share how she opened up her relationship from monogamous to “monogamish” and how that's led to exploring sex parties with her partner and Feeld, the trusty dating app for all types of non-monogamy and kink. Eventually, they transitioned to solo non-monogamy, and now her and her primary partner have other casual partners too.
