Most of us were told what not to do with sex.Very few of us were ever told what sex is actually for.  In this message, we'll revisit a question my friend David asked in youth group: "What is sex?" It sounds simple, but the answer is anything but.Drawing from Genesis 1-2, 1 Timothy, and Colossians, we'll explore four overlooked truths: sex is essential, sex is God's idea, sex is an icon, and sex is a signpost. Along the way, you'll have a chance to wrestle with why sex matters so much, why it wounds us so deeply, and what it's designed to point us toward.This isn't about new rules. It's about a vision of sexuality that's both ancient and desperately needed today—one that refuses puritanical shame and consumeristic self-indulgence in equal measure.If you've ever felt torn between following Jesus and your sexuality—this message is for you.Download our group discussion guide here.

In this very different -- and very difficult -- episode, DB sits down with Mia Schachter of Consent Wizardry to talk all about consent. But what DB gets is not what she expected. Please note that this episode contains difficult and potentially triggering conversations around consent. This episode touches on discussions and experiences of consent violations, as well as a perspective that might trigger feelings or memories of victim blaming for some listeners. Be sure to listen through the Pleasure Preview and Afterglow of this episode, where DB talks about her perspectives on consent and this conversation, as well as giving some vital resources. Please do not seek out our guest from this episode for any form of harassment or criticism based on this episode or on behalf of Sex Ed with DB. Online or not, harassment, bullying, and dogpiling are never okay, and we don't condone it.

In this final episode of 2025, Lauren and Trey continue their conversation on admiration and its role in sustaining desire in long-term partnership. They share how writing notes of admiration on their refrigerator whiteboard has become a simple, meaningful daily practice.Lauren reflects on how admiration fuels her desire and why it matters to feel known as a woman of worth to Trey rather than a container for his jizz. From there, they explore the dynamics of sexual desire through David Schnarch's concepts of the Higher Desire Partner (HDP) and Lower Desire Partner (LDP), including the insight that the LDP ultimately controls the sex that is had.Trey shares that Lauren is the LDP in their partnership and asks what helps her feel supported. Lauren names her need for space and permission not to respond to sexual texts. Lauren then asks Trey how he feels supported as the HDP, and he shares how she celebrates his self-pleasure, schedules sex, and plans sexy staycations. They draw a parallel to everyday life, including Lauren as the HDP around hosting and how being supported without shame strengthens connection. Lauren reminds listeners that we are not sexually broken, we simply “don't know how to drive,” and emphasizes the importance of knowing and owning desire.The episode closes with laughter as they play the I Want! game, celebrating desire without obligation, and ends with a classic cutoff moment. They'll be back next week for part three of this holiday trio.

Rubaszne żarty czy komentowanie wyglądu – to wciąż zmora, z którą musi mierzyć się wiele kobiet. Aż dla 1 na 3 mężczyzn, seksistowskie dowcipy nie są przemocą seksualną. Tymczasem realnie naruszają granice, wywołują dyskomfort i zmieszanie. Fundacja SEXED.pl przypomina o tym w swojej najnowszej kampanii „Księcia z bajki się zachciało?”, która staje się okazją by przypominać ze żart i powoływanie się na poczucie humoru, nie usprawiedliwiają przemocy. Temat szczególnie aktualny staje się w okresie świąteczno-noworocznym, który obfituje w spotkania z bliskimi i znajomymi. Jak połączyć dbałość o swoje granice z troską o swój dobrostan? Czy każdy i każda z nas jest w stanie unieść zgłoszenie sytuacji przemocowej? O tym, a także pomocy udzielanej na Antyprzemocowej Linii Fundacji SEXED.pl opowiadała w Drogowskazach Miri Palak, seksuolożka, koordynatorka zespołu pomocowego fundacji SEXED.pl Do wysłuchania rozmowy zaprasza Aleksandra Galant.

What actually keeps desire alive in long-term partnerships? According to Emily Nagoski, PhD, it's not relentless passion—it's admiration.In this episode of The Partnership Podcast, Lauren and Trey explore why liking, respecting, and admiring your partner may be one of the most powerful (and under-practiced) ingredients in sustaining erotic connection over time. Quoting Nagoski's book Come Together, they reflect on her reminder:“You don't need to want your partner passionately so much as you need to like them, admire them, and believe that they are worth some effort.”They kick things off with a vulnerable and hilarious story about Lauren forgetting to replenish a household item—and jokingly “making up for it” by seducing Trey (yes, the heels make sense once you hear the story). From there, they share a simple but profound ritual inspired by Nagoski's work: ending the day by naming five things they admire about one another.Mid-episode, Trey invites Lauren to coach him live as a “pretend client” who is afraid to ask for admiration after being ridiculed in the past. Lauren walks listeners through compassionate, grounded ways to initiate conversations about admiration with a partner—offering tools that are immediately usable and deeply regulating.They also introduce the idea of increasing our positive affect tolerance: practicing receiving compliments by making eye contact and simply saying, “thank you.” Together, they unpack why receiving admiration can feel surprisingly difficult—and why cultivating a culture of admiration in our homes and relationships is essential for intimacy, safety, and desire.This conversation marks Part One of a three-part series designed to support partnerships through the holiday season. Be sure to come back next Monday at 7am for Part Two as Lauren and Trey continue this important exploration.If this conversation stirred something for you, especially around admiration, desire, or feeling seen in your partnership, you don't have to navigate it alone.

What happens when old relationship patterns collide with real-time growth?Lauren and Trey start this episode with a wild night out that sparks a raw conversation about ex partner behavior, accountability, and emotional maturity. After witnessing prank calls and performative attempts to re-enter an ex's orbit while they were on a date, Lauren names the behavior clearly. At best, it's childish. At worst, it crosses into bullying and harassment.Instead of judging from a distance, Lauren invites Trey to reflect on the times he's done versions of this himself. They explore why intent does not negate impact, how none of us were taught how to be in romantic relationships, and why grace for our younger selves is essential to growth. Trey shares two candid stories from his past, while Lauren reflects on a moment when wanting to be chosen meant not choosing herself.At the 26 minute mark, the conversation shifts as they unpack a financial change in their partnership, with Lauren stepping into the role of primary breadwinner. Trey opens up about fears around contribution, masculinity, and being left behind, while Lauren names how meaningful it is that these conversations are happening at all. They revisit the origin of Sex Ed For You, the belief that fueled it, and how old money stories can resurface even in secure relationships.Lauren closes by honoring the courage it takes to seek support and growth. Trey ends with a message to straight men in particular. Seeking help is never shameful.If this conversation resonates, please like, comment, and share the episode.And if you're looking for sex and relationship coaching you're invited to request a free consult with Lauren at www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIdeal for couples in long-term partnerships who want deeper intimacy, more desire, and better sex.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

In this intimate, grounded conversation, Lauren and Trey explore the truth about women dating shorter men, what culture tells us, what we internalize, and how couples can rewrite the scripts they've inherited. Lauren is about an inch taller than Trey without heels, and she often wears heels at his request. Their dynamic opens the door to a deeper look at how lived experiences, early messages, ego, and desire shape the attractions we feel in adulthood.They talk about how every one of us is a sexuality educator, whether we mean to be or not. The ways we speak about bodies, preferences, and turn-ons either extend permission or reinforce shame. This leads into a meaningful discussion on the difference between sexual preferences and kinks, and why labeling something a “kink” often reflects cultural discomfort more than personal truth.To ground the conversation, they offer this clear definition:“Kink or kinky is seen as an umbrella term for sexual counter-culture, meaning that it goes against the mainstream, vanilla society. Whereas a fetish refers to a specific object, behavior, body part, or fantasy that is necessary for a person to achieve sexual enjoyment or arousal, but it's not always required to be physically present. There is often overlap between kinks and fetishes and sometimes the two terms are used interchangeably to describe a unique turn-on. But, unlike a fetish, a kink is not required for arousal, only preferred or enjoyed.”Lauren and Trey also explore the inner work required to go against cultural expectations while gently naming that it is absolutely OK to have preferences.If this conversation resonates, please like, comment, and share the episode.And if you're wanting support around embodied attraction, sexual preferences, or relational dynamics, you're invited to request a free consult with Lauren at www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIdeal for couples in long-term partnerships who want deeper intimacy, more desire, and better sex.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

Traditional Chinese medicine looks at your sex life very differently than Western medicine and honestly, it's VERY refreshing. In this episode, we're joined by Jaiming Ju, a 2nd-generation Chinese medicine practitioner and founder of Kun Health, to talk about how TCM understands libido, pain during sex, ED, arousal, and overall sexual wellbeing. We get into body patterns, energy balance, lifestyle habits, and what your symptoms are actually trying to tell you. We cover: How Chinese medicine understands sex and pleasure. Jaiming explains why sexual health is seen as a major indicator of overall wellbeing, not an isolated issue. Why pain during sex is never “just in your head”. How TCM views dryness, pelvic pain, tension, and discomfort and why it's almost always linked to imbalance, depletion, or circulation issues. Understanding libido changes. How arousal, desire, and lubrication map to warmth, energy, and hormonal patterns + how aging, stress, lifestyle, and depletion impact the body. ED from a TCM perspective. Why erections are about circulation, warmth, and “yang energy,” and what it means when interest and performance don't match. Tongue diagnosis and what it reveals about your sex life. Yes, your tongue really can show dryness, heat, coldness, stress patterns, or issues affecting libido. Why stress and exhaustion shut down desire. How nervous system overload, burnout, and irregular routines drain the body's resources and impact arousal. Practical pleasure support from a Chinese medicine lens. Food, warmth, routines, habits, and small changes that help your body feel safer, softer, and more responsive during sex. How to support long-term sexual health at every age. Daily practices Jaiming recommends to maintain circulation, lubrication, desire, and overall balance. Connect with Jaiming HERE!

In this candid and intimate episode, Lauren and Trey explore the idea of sexual currency and how consistent deposits into a partner's sexual bank account can transform intimacy in long-term relationships. They share the story of a magical sexual encounter they had the night before and talk about why it was only possible because Trey had been investing in Lauren's sexual bank account for the past 4 to 6 weeks.They revisit the rough menstrual cycle documented earlier in the season and talk about the way Lauren has been shedding an old version of herself. Trey's patience, curiosity, and willingness to give her the space she needs have helped her feel more attracted, more connected, and more open to erotic exploration.Together they break down the specific investments that made the difference. Curious questions. Protecting Lauren's alone time. Mutual masturbation and how they make it work. Words of affirmation. Compliments. Acts of service, including Trey laundering Lauren's period underwear. And the impact of Trey not complaining, sulking, or pressuring Lauren when her capacity for sex shifted.They also share a recent moment where Trey offered Lauren feedback and she tried a new technique of listening as a friend instead of as someone who needed to defend herself. That shift made a deposit in Trey's sexual bank account and created more emotional space and helped deepen their connection.Lauren and Trey talk about how when women say they do not want sex - they are talking about the boring kind of sex. The type of sex women actually want is sex that feels safe, secure, connected, and adventurous. They describe why last night's sex is the kind most couples dream about and how it becomes possible through emotional investment, clear communication, and trust.Lauren also shares her favorite Maude vibrator, the VIBE: https://getmaude.com/SEFY?q=vibe-personal-massagerIf you want to learn how to make meaningful deposits into your partner's sexual bank account, you can request a free consult at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIf this episode supports you, please like, share, and subscribe.Ideal for couples in long-term partnerships who want deeper intimacy, more desire, and better sex.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

In this episode, Lauren and Trey explore what it really looks like to shadowbox through conflict instead of slipping into fusion, isolation, or the old patterns their bodies once relied on.They discuss Jessica Fern's Distancer–Pursuer dance, celebrating the one who reaches for connection under stress and the one who pulls toward autonomy. Lauren then brings up their recent train ride back from NYC and how Trey surprised them both by turning toward connection instead of shutting down. She explains how the rough start began with a taxi stopping in the middle of traffic at Penn Station, lowering Trey's resiliency score before the conversation even began. Trey breaks down his Resiliency Check-In scale for listeners:Resiliency Check-In:5 = I could jump through a wall4 = I could accomplish anything3 = I'm good to go for the basic tasks2 = I probably need to be in bed watching TV1 = No, I can't do anything and I need to take a bath and go to bedThey walk through the uncomfortable minutes waiting for their train, the shadows that surfaced, and the trauma nap Lauren took as her infant self's old coping strategy. They revisit the moment when Trey looked out the window and admitted he wanted to run away, and how choosing to stay shifted everything. They talk about why resolving things quickly to keep the peace is tempting, and why sitting in discomfort is often the more honest path.Hours later, Lauren describes the internal battle of trying to say no, sensing her system avoid the threat of disconnection, and how Trey encouraged clarity instead of collapse. She reflects on the roots of not being able to say no in her home of origin, then shares how the Willingness and Wanting Scales from their Like a Pro training helped her discover that her truth was not a simple no but a yes with limits or a yes if that.Lauren closes with pride in the way they shadowboxed on the train with tenderness and skill. Trey shares why walking is still his favorite way to have hard conversations and why trains will probably never be his preferred arena for relational growth.If any of these subjects have piqued your interest, request a free consult at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIf this episode resonates with you, please like, subscribe, and share with someone who may need to hear these words.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

The US has some of the highest rates of STIs and teen pregnancies in the industrialized world. A comprehensive sex education curriculum—which teaches facts on contraception, prophylactics, consent, and STIs—has been available since the 90s. Yet the majority of states require that sex education stress abstinence, and 22 states do not require sex ed in public schools at all. In The Fight for Sex Ed: The Century-Long Battle Between Truth and Doctrine (Beacon Press, 2025), writer, advocate, and historian Margaret Grace Myers shows us how we got here. While the earliest calls for sex ed came from a coalition of religious leaders and doctors at the turn of the century who sought to control the prevalence of STIs, the advent of antibiotics and modern condoms meant that abstinence was no longer good public health policy. The religious right, however, continued to frame it as such, using its impressive machinery to replace scientific facts with conservative Christian values. Because sex ed is not mandated at the federal level, these battles have played out locally throughout the decades: through rigged school boards, administrative oustings, court cases, unjust firings, scare tactics, and threats. Myers also shows how the religious right has worked to narrow the discourse around sex ed, often dictating the terms of debate almost entirely. What we teach young people has serious ramifications for reproductive justice, LGBTQ+ rights, gender equality, and public health. Sex education lies at the intersection of these hugely important cultural forces, yet it has been largely invisible. This book illuminates its potential—and its power. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Yet the majority of states require that sex education stress abstinence, and 22 states do not require sex ed in public schools at all. In The Fight for Sex Ed: The Century-Long Battle Between Truth and Doctrine (Beacon Press, 2025), writer, advocate, and historian Margaret Grace Myers shows us how we got here. While the earliest calls for sex ed came from a coalition of religious leaders and doctors at the turn of the century who sought to control the prevalence of STIs, the advent of antibiotics and modern condoms meant that abstinence was no longer good public health policy. The religious right, however, continued to frame it as such, using its impressive machinery to replace scientific facts with conservative Christian values. Because sex ed is not mandated at the federal level, these battles have played out locally throughout the decades: through rigged school boards, administrative oustings, court cases, unjust firings, scare tactics, and threats. Myers also shows how the religious right has worked to narrow the discourse around sex ed, often dictating the terms of debate almost entirely. What we teach young people has serious ramifications for reproductive justice, LGBTQ+ rights, gender equality, and public health. Sex education lies at the intersection of these hugely important cultural forces, yet it has been largely invisible. This book illuminates its potential—and its power. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Lauren and Trey dive into Season 2 of Netflix's Nobody Wants This, and yes, there are definitely spoilers. The first third of the episode is pure chaos in the best way: the two of them can't stop laughing, Lauren's in a short skirt and tights, and Trey keeps telling listeners to go watch the video version because “you really need to see her outfit and hair today.”Things heat up even more when Trey drops words like “archetype” and “tools for repair.” Lauren - ever the unabashed sapiosexual - keeps teasing that he's absolutely getting lucky if he keeps talking like that.From there, they break down the dynamics unfolding on the show: the “good boyfriend” archetype, the guilt around taking a “night off,” long-term relationship ruts, and, of course, jealousy in monogamous partnerships. That last one opens the door to a tender moment where Lauren admits she can't know for sure if Trey will stay forever… and also knows she'd be okay, because of who she's become.They talk about the importance of telling the truth, even when it's uncomfortable—like on their recent train ride back from NYC when Trey said, “That's not OK, and you need to talk to your coach about that,” and Lauren appreciated the honesty instead of bristling.The episode wraps with the two of them taking turns pretending to be characters from the show and “coaching” each other through messy plotlines. It's hilarious, revealing, and full of heart.If you want support working through the kinds of relationship patterns and dynamics you see on the show, you can request a free consult with Lauren at www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultIf this episode resonates with you, please like, subscribe, and share with someone who may need to hear these words.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

In this raw and relatable episode, Trey kicks things off by admitting he's craving sex — and it's been a while. Lauren affirms that it's good to want while sharing that she's in a deeply introspective phase of her menstrual cycle, shedding an old version of herself and leaning into rest. She offers a brief teaching on hormonal cycles — how men move through a 24-hour rhythm, while people with uteruses experience a month-long one — and how that difference can create tension and tenderness in partnerships.Grateful for Trey's care and presence, Lauren asks, “Is it enough to support your desire without offering sex?” Trey answers with a wholehearted yes and vulnerably names what he'd love instead: affirmation, touch, and playful attention. Together, they explore how to communicate wants without pressure, how to regulate in real-time, and how to meet each other with curiosity instead of conflict.By the end, Lauren's already planned a surprise for Trey — and at minute 27:00, they share an on-camera kiss that shows exactly what connection through honesty can look like.If you enjoyed this episode, like, share, and subscribe to The Partnership Podcast so more partners can learn these tools for connection and curiosity.Curious about applying this work in your own relationship?

Together they take a nostalgic trip down memory lane to the late 90s to talk about why the 1999 romcom Never Been Kissed Should've Been Gay. If you're a younger gay, you may not have seen this 90s classic; but we bet you'll recognize the major names in the cast. We're talking Drew Barrymore, David Arquette, Molly Shannon, Octavia Spencer, and freaking Jessica Alba all in the same movie. If that doesn't convince you to watch it at least one dozen times, we don't know what will. The plot follows Josie, a journalist going undercover at a high school for a story, as she experiences being retraumatized by the popular girls, falling in love with her teacher, and competing for prom queen.  As much as we genuinely adore this movie, it is impossible not to talk about the ocean of reasons why Never Been Kissed is not the wholesome, family-friendly movie it was marketed as and is instead highly problematic. We get that Josie is 25 and only pretending to be a high schooler for the sake of her journalism career; but her teacher does not know that and has no reason to think she isn't a 17 year old student. Yet, they are the main romance that the audience is very much supposed to be rooting for. Thankfully, we have our gay glasses on and with a few little changes to the script we can see our path to a much less problematic, and much, much queerer movie. After all, there's something pretty queer already about a 25 year old woman who has never had a romantic kiss or felt sparks from any guy. The school-sized closet Josie is hiding out in is truly made of glass.  We know one thing for sure, Never Been Kissed Should've Been Gay.

After two weeks of travel — and every waking moment side by side — Lauren and Trey return from vacation to unpack what it's really like to be together for 14 straight days.Trey opens the episode with a listening turn, reflecting on why he absolutely loved spending the entire trip with Lauren… and why, the moment they got home, he needed space. Around minute 10, Lauren takes her own listening turn and explains how this practice works — and why it's one of the tools that keeps them grounded in curiosity rather than reactivity.At 12:45, Lauren recalls their vacation gone wrong two years ago (LISTEN HERE), and how this trip felt like a full-circle moment — an investment in her primary partnership and in the life they're building as change approaches.At 25:40, Trey shares how a shadow part of himself surfaced one day on the beach, and how he made a vulnerable request for help — one that became a profound moment of connection. By 29:00, he opens up about one of the most monumental moments of his life.Lauren reflects on her pride in Trey, the power of witnessing his curiosity, and what it offered her in return. Trey closes with gratitude for Lauren's gentle challenge: “Your way might be the best way, but it's not the only way.” And Lauren shares why, instead of backing down, she met him toe-to-toe — allowing both of them to become their best selves together.If you'd like tools to support your partner in this way and spice up your vacations, you can request a free 15-minute consult with Lauren at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsult.If this episode resonates with you, please like, subscribe, and share with someone who may need to hear these words.About Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.
