oday on Coffee and Cleavage, Shantal, Lynnie, and Gary explore the challenges of setting sexual boundaries in a culture that praises flexibility. They dive into why clear boundaries are essential for building trust and comfort in intimate relationships.

In this episode of the Not Your Average Autism Mom podcast, we're tackling an often uncomfortable but incredibly important topic: sexual curiosity in our autistic children. As our kids grow, they naturally become curious about their bodies and the bodies of others. But for children on the spectrum, understanding boundaries and social norms around these behaviors can be especially challenging. Today, we're discussing how to handle situations where “show me and I'll show you” games might come into play, and why it's critical to address these moments early on. I'll share practical strategies for having open, positive conversations about sexuality, teaching boundaries, and ensuring our kids understand the difference between what's appropriate in private versus public spaces. Plus, we'll talk about when it might be time to seek professional help for more complex situations. This is not an easy subject, but it's one we need to be prepared for. Join me as we navigate this together, giving our children the knowledge and guidance they need to explore safely and confidently. Tune in for encouragement, insights, and actionable advice to help you keep going, stay strong, and never give up. You've got this!

Of the four primary boundaries, the sexual boundary is the most controversial and the one that people have the most opinions about. In today's episode, I want to simplify this messy, complicated topic so you can more easily implement your own healthy sexual boundaries.  Sexual boundaries are non-negotiable. No one gets to decide whether or how they touch you sexually without your permission—and you get to decide what you consider sexual. It's up to you to decide which of your body parts you consider to be sexual, for example, and what you define as sexual activities. Your sexual boundaries are absolutely influenced by your value system, but ultimately you get to make your own decisions.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #14: Your sexual boundaries are your physical body as you engage in sexual activity (with yourself or with another person), the specific parts of your body that you consider to be sexual, and activities with another person that you define as sexual. When sexual boundaries are operating well, you decide with whom, how, when, and where you're sexual. You don't touch another person sexually without their permission. You have the ability and freedom to refrain from or engage in sexual activity with another person. Receiving a “no” can be painful, but it's never personal. Another person's “no” is always about them, never about the person receiving that “no.” Highlights from Episode #14: Victoria welcomes listeners to this episode, the second in a series about the four primary boundaries, and recaps points from last week that are relevant to all boundaries. [00:31] We hear some definitions of sexual boundaries. [05:28] What do functional sexual boundaries look like? [07:40] Victoria explains why sexual boundaries are so controversial and difficult to talk about. [09:40] We learn about the value of getting clear about your value system when it comes to sexual behavior. [14:36] Victoria talks about protecting others with your sexual boundaries, and accepting another person's “no.” [16:27] Honoring someone else's boundary creates freedom and spaciousness. [20:23] Victoria talks about what broken sexual boundaries look like, starting with demanding sex. [23:43] Ignoring another person's “no” is another boundary violation, as is engaging in inappropriate sexual conversation. [25:42] Exposing another person to unwanted sexual experiences is another violation, as is touching another person without their permission. [28:33] Victoria reiterates that your sexual decisions and preferences are your right. She then discusses another boundary violation: talking about another person's body. [31:30] Refusing to give somebody privacy is another boundary violation. [34:02] Victoria talks about claiming a right to another person's body. [35:28] Victoria wraps up the episode with a sneak peek of a coming conversation with a colleague about sexual boundaries. She invites listeners to learn more about the sexual boundary in her new book Personal Boundaries for Dummies, and to subscribe to the show.

In today's episode we are answering a listeners question! This discussion dives deep into the importance of maintaining healthy boundaries and purity within a marriage. We learn that introducing external sexual influences, whether pornography, strip clubs, or other deviant behaviors, can slowly erode the intimacy and oneness God intended for the marital relationship. Just as detoxing from an addiction is a difficult process, removing these negative elements from a marriage is challenging but essential for the couple's spiritual wellbeing. We emphasize the need for open communication, counseling, accountability, and most importantly, anchoring one's identity firmly in Christ. Ultimately, we are reminded that God's design for marriage mirrors Christ's sacrificial love for the church - a love that finds its fullness in mutual respect, forgiveness and genuine intimacy.

“4. Sexual boundaries Healthy sexual boundaries include consent, agreement, respect, understanding of preferences and desires, and privacy. Healthy sexual boundaries include: Asking for consent Discussing and asking for what pleases you Requesting condom use if you want it Discussing contraception Saying no to things that you do not like or that hurt you Protecting the privacy of the other person This might sound like: "Do you want to have sex now?" "Is this comfortable for you?" "Tell me what you like." "Tell me what you don't like." "I don't like that. Let's try something different." "I don't want to have sex tonight. Can we cuddle instead?" "I am really into [insert desire here]. Is that something you would feel comfortable with?" Sexual boundary violations include: Sulking, punishing, or getting angry if someone does not want to have sex Not asking for consent Pressure to engage in unwanted sexual acts Unwanted sexual comments Leering Lying about contraceptive use Lying about your health history Criticizing the other person's sexual preferences Unwanted touch, assault, or rape.” -Mindbodygreen. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Do you find it hard to make sense of the different views on sex in culture? Is it time for you to reevaluate your view of sex? Join me on today's episode to have an open and honest conversation on… sex. Society keeps sending mixed signals on what sex is all about. I want us to discuss the topic of sexual boundaries but from a Biblical perspective. It's high time we redeem the narrative that the enemy has stolen from us! That is why we will explore:  God's original, good, and divine design for sex  Biblical view of sex vs. Cultural view Freedom from sexual shame  We all need practical handles on sexual boundaries in marriage and for singles. Because of that, I'm highlighting the importance of respect, communication, accountability, and non-sexual intimacy.  Sex was God's idea! He intended it for our good. Don't let the enemy steal that from you. I want you to know that whatever has happened in your life, you can find forgiveness through Jesus and develop a personal intimate relationship with Him. If you found this topic helpful, let me know by tagging me @biancaolthoff  Love you friend, B RESOURCES/LINKS Boundaries in Sex // Boundary Lines // Bianca Olthoff Quote I don't want social media. I don't want pop culture. I don't want the ivory tower of academia to define what sex is. No. Sex was God's idea. Takeaways Sexual boundaries are for our benefit and not a burden. Open and honest conversations about sex are necessary in order to break free from shame and cultural narratives. In marriage, it is important to have regular communication about sexual expectations and desires. For singles, setting personal boundaries and seeking accountability are key to maintaining purity. Sex does not guarantee intimacy, and true intimacy is built on emotional and verbal communion. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here ⋇ Order Bianca's new book GRIT DON'T QUIT ⋇ The Grit Don't Quit Bible Study is now available. ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!This episode is sponsored by NOTES® Candle.

“Rule 4: Check In Regularly The best way to ensure that all parties are comfortable with any sexual activity is to talk about it, check in periodically, and make sure everyone involved consents before escalating or changing activities. Boundaries can change over time as you grow and experience new things. So what was okay recently, may not be okay today or tomorrow. You can withdraw consent at any point if you feel uncomfortable. One way to do this is to clearly communicate to your partner that you are no longer comfortable with this activity and wish to stop. Withdrawing consent can sometimes be challenging or difficult to do verbally, so non-verbal cues can also be used to convey this. That's where the next rule becomes really important. Rule 5: Respect Each Other Respect is about honoring one another's boundaries. Enthusiastic consent is a model for understanding consent that focuses on a positive expression of consent. Simply put, enthusiastic consent means looking for the presence of a “yes” rather than the absence of a “no.” Enthusiastic consent can be expressed verbally or through nonverbal cues, such as positive body language like smiling, maintaining eye contact, and nodding. These cues alone do not necessarily represent consent, but they are additional details that may reflect consent. It is necessary, however, to still seek verbal confirmation. The important part of consent, enthusiastic or otherwise, is checking in with your partner regularly to make sure that they are still on the same page. Enthusiastic consent can look like: Asking permission before you change the type or degree of sexual activity with phrases like “Is this OK?” Confirming that there is reciprocal interest before initiating any physical touch. Letting your partner know that it's okay to stop at any time. Periodically checking in with your partner, such as asking “Is this still okay?” Accepting an answer of “no” without asking again Providing positive feedback when you're comfortable with an activity. Explicitly agreeing to certain activities, either by saying “yes” or another affirmative statement, like “I'm open to trying.” Using physical cues to let the other person know you're comfortable taking things to the next level (see note below). Consent does NOT look like: Refusing to acknowledge “no” A partner who is disengaged, nonresponsive, or visibly upset Assuming that wearing certain clothes, flirting, or kissing is an invitation for anything more Someone being under the legal age of consent, as defined by the state Someone being incapacitated because of drugs or alcohol Pressuring someone into sexual activity by repeatedly asking or using fear, intimidation, or coercion. Assuming you have permission to engage in a sexual act because you've done it in the past Physiological responses like an erection, lubrication, arousal, or orgasm are involuntary, meaning your body might react one way even when you are not consenting to the activity. Sometimes perpetrators will use the fact that these physiological responses occur to maintain secrecy or minimize a survivor's experience by using phrases such as, "You know you liked it." In no way does a physiological response mean that you consented to what happened. If you have been sexually abused or assaulted, it is not your fault.” -RAINN Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.) --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Ever wondered how trauma impacts our lives and how we can heal? Over the years, we have discovered that many of our participants who struggle with food and eating issues also are in relationships with people who struggle with appropriate sexual behavior. Today, we are joined by Sherry from Grace Street Coaching, who helps illuminate the myriad ways trauma manifests in our lives and its impact on our mental health. Together, we share about personal journeys of overcoming betrayal in  marriage, and how to rebuild trust by rooting the path to recovery in God's truth.We also discuss the similarities between the misuse of food and the misuse of sex--both gifts from the Lord within boundaries that He has set for us. Our conversation ventures into how traumatic experiences can trigger PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other issues. But we don't stop there. We bring to light the under-discussed subject of betrayal trauma and its far-reaching impact on men and women. Through Sherry's personal story of betrayal, we unravel the layers of shame stemming from childhood trauma and explore how safe spaces, faith and community help in breaking free from such cycles of shame.As we wrap up our discussion, we highlight the critical work and value of empowering women to heal from past betrayals and foster healthy relationships. Tackling the subject of sexual addiction, we delve into its varied perceptions, and discuss the available resources that support women in their healing journey. Finally, we emphasize the importance of understanding the link between sexual addiction and betrayal, and the path to liberation from the cycle of coping mechanisms. Join us for this enlightening conversation and discover the tools to navigate the complexities of trauma and healing.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Since the pandemic, sexual empowerment has increased 30 percent and sexual self-esteem now is 50 percent higher. Why the change, and is this good? Searah Deysach, a sex educator and owner of Early to Bed and Trans Essentials, answered those questions and many more in my recent Smart Sex, Smart Love podcast. “COVID changed our lives quickly and abruptly,” she begins. “Suddenly we were forced to spend time alone, or alone with our partner. “We were talking about our relationship more and what we wanted; we had to verbalize our thoughts, feelings and desires more often.”Deysach owns a sex toy shop, and she saw a huge surge in sex toy purchases during the pandemic, she reports. People were exploring and accessing new avenues of pleasure, she found. “This can't help but build self-confidence.”How can couples keep open communication going? Dr. Kort asked her. “Practice. We are taught not to talk about sex, so start small, and be specific about what you like,” Deysach says. “Most people who are worth having sex with should want to communicate and want feedback,” she notes. In the podcast, Deysach also shares her advice for helping people feel more comfortable in the bedroom. To hear her tips and more about Deysach's background and why she opened a sex toy store, listen to this Smart Sex, Smart Love podcast.

Tired of navigating the confusing world of sexual boundaries within Christian dating relationships?We're here to help you redefine these boundaries as markers of holiness, focusing on maintaining sacredness and godliness according to God's intentions.Join us as we dive into Paul's words in 1 Thessalonians 4:3-6 and discuss how to approach dating relationships with a heart for protecting our future spouse, even if our current relationship doesn't work out.We'll share insights on having conversations about maintaining holiness within dating relationships, and understanding that not every partnership will lead to marriage.Learn how to think beyond boundaries and focus on internal convictions, fostering a deeper connection with God and your partner. Ready to invite God into your dating life and strive for holiness and sacredness in your love journey?Don't miss this eye-opening episode on redefining sexual boundaries in Christian dating.Highlights:A boundary is defined as the line that marks the limits of a particular area. The problem is in dating relationships that line can move a lot. Consider Markers of Holiness as an approach to a God honoring relationship. The Bible defines holiness as something sacred or Godly. How can you take that and apply it to your dating relationship?Boundaries can be subjective and get blurry with temptation. Make the effort to have the conversation about Markers for Holiness with your partner BEFORE physical intimacy. At the point of sexual arousal, your brain may not have the ability to make a different choice. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-6 It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control your own body  in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God;  and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sisterTranscription: Redefining Sexual Boundaries in Christian DatingEpisode Resources:    Regen on YouTube    What We DoWant us to talk about a specific topic?

Once an addict starts into recovery and his partner begins her journey of healing betrayal trauma, a couple should immediately look at the difficult but essential work of SETTING BOUNDARIES. Why? Because the most connected relationships are BOUNDARIED RELATIONSHIPS! The first priority is to set boundaries that create "safety" in the relationship. Without safety, what every couple desires—intimacy (into-me-you-see)—is not possible. Among the most important boundaries establishing safety are SEXUAL BOUNDARIES.

Apply all of these boundaries to sex: “HEALTHY BOUNDARIES You can say no or yes, and you are ok when others say no to you. You have a strong sense of identity. You respect yourself. You expect reciprocity in a relationship-you sharing responsibility and power. You know when the problem is yours and when it belongs to someone else. You share personal information gradually in a mutually shared/trusting relationship. You don't tolerate abuse or disrespect. You know your own wants, needs, and feelings. You communicate them clearly in your relationships. You are committed to and responsible for exploring and nurturing your full potential. You are responsible for your own happiness and fulfillment. You allow others to be responsible for their own happiness and fulfillment. You value your opinions and feelings as much as others. You know your limits. You allow others to define their limits. You are able to ask for help when you need it. You don't compromise your values or integrity to avoid rejection.” Compassionate sexual indulgence and compassionate sexual refrainment are both essential parts of heathy eroticism and healthy sensuality. Women do need oral stimulation for ejaculatory pleasure because penetration is not good enough. Don't sleep with anyone who cruelly clowns your oral performance, anal performance, vaginal performance, penetrative sex performance, foreplay performance, and non-penetrative sex performance. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Healthy boundaries are all the rage . . . and with good reason. Having them helps us feel empowered, reduces resentment and encourages self-respect. But what about when it comes to sex? How can you practice saying no and communicating your needs without pushing the other person away?Do healthy sexual boundaries mean you're never going to have casual sex (answer - no!)? How can sexual boundaries help you feel safer with your partner? Embodiment practices can help. By being in your body and not just your head (the brain head, not the other one), you'll learn what a YES truly feels like and what a NO feels like. In this episode, you'll learn: How Heather set boundaries in a dating situation & how it worked out.Having sex more than you truly want to: Using sex for validation. Having sex early on so it's not an issue. Getting sex out of the way.Sexual boundary issues often stem from a disconnect in your body. Your mind could be bulldozing your body specifically. The ability to tune into your body is important to all this. Ways you can practice: Do a body scan guided meditation. Do a sensual massage with your partner and notice where you feel relaxed, if you feel self-conscious or squeamish anywhere. Practice feeling your emotions in your body. Not being vulnerable enough. Working through fear and aversion. If it's a safe space and you're committed to showing up for yourself, it's ok to push the envelope a bit.Resources Mentioned:GRAB YOUR HEALTHY SEXUAL BOUNDARIES CHECKLIST HERE!CURIOUS ABOUT WORKING WITH HEATHER AS A COACH?Book a No-Pressure $1 Discovery Call LET'S CONNECT!

It's a New Year! Lots of people make resolutions so Mistress Olivia and Ms Erika decide to talk about expanding sexual boundaries.Ms Olivia has an announcement.The new website that has the transcripts of podcast episodes is finally up and she promises to get the backlog of episodes posted asap. Here's the website: https://weeklyhotspot.com/Ms Erika points out that hard boundaries are always respected but there are some kinky activities that people are curious about but just haven't done.Ms Olivia talks about people who listen to the podcast and say, “hey, I want to try that.”Since both ladies love research, they get to talking about some interesting poll numbers. Who watches porn while masturbating. What percentage of men use imagination while masturbating.This leads to a conversation about how Distance Domination and phone sex is different from porn. Hear Ms Erika's reaction when Ms Olivia asks if she watches porn during her time away from the phones. The majority of people moan or breathe heavily during sex but some (1%) do something that makes the ladies crack up.Did you know that strapons were originally for impotent men in the 1950's?Did you know that searches for lesbian scissoring is up more than 700%?The ladies have lots of weird sex and interesting insights. You never know what you'll hear.Oh and Happy New Year!

Every relationship we have could benefit from defining some boundaries, whether we're talking about relationships with our employers, friends, or sexual partners. However, most of us aren't very good at establishing them because setting boundaries feels like saying "no," and no can be a really difficult word to say for a lot of reasons. So let's talk about boundaries. In today's show, we're going to discuss everything you need to know, including when to discuss them, how to communicate boundaries effectively, as well as how to move on when boundary violations occur. I am joined by Dr. Alison Ash, a trauma-informed intimacy coach and educator, Stanford University Lecturer, author, and founder of TurnON.love. Some of the topics we discuss include: Why setting boundaries is so hard. How to figure out your own boundaries, because sometimes we don't know what they are yet. The fluidity of boundaries over time. When and how to reveal your boundaries in a relationship. Tips for starting a productive conversation about boundaries. How to listen better when a partner expresses their boundaries. How to recover and repair a relationship when boundaries get crossed.

Many of us feel sexually insecure in some way. For example, you might be concerned about your body shape or size, the appearance of your genitals, and/or your sexual skills or performance. We are often our own harshest critics, and this can be incredibly detrimental to our sex lives. Insecurity can make it difficult to relax during sex, to experience pleasure, and even to experience desire for sex. So how can you overcome sexual insecurity and build up sexual self-confidence? That's what we're going to be talking about today. I am joined by Dr. Jennifer Gunsaullus, a sociologist, relationship and communication coach, and author of the book From Madness to Mindfulness: Reinventing Sex for Women. Some of the topics we explore include: How you can learn to love your body. How to feel more confident in your genital appearance. How to let go of negative self-talk during sex and be in the moment. Why focusing on orgasm as the goal of sex can reduce pleasure for everyone. How to feel more confident in your sexual turn-ons and share them with a partner. How to communicate your sexual boundaries. What to do when you're partnered with someone who is sexually insecure. Check it out!
