Sex can be amazing, like a beautiful ballet, graceful and in perfect synchronicity.
Sex can be passionate, like a sensual tango of pushing and pulling, holding roses in your teeth while throwing your partner across the room (in a loving way).
Sex can also become a chore, like tap dancing, or like walking the dog or taking out the garbage, if the conditions are just right.
But the good news is that it's normal. Relationships go through different phases and outside factors and stressors can affect your relationship and sex life. You need to understand the dance to know when you or your partner are pulling away; that way you know when to embrace them even closer. Find out more in this week's episode of About Sex, with Sex Therapist Angela Skurtu and her husband Josh!

Some people marry for looks.
Some people marry for safety and security.
Some people marry to avoid war and destruction with a rival kingdom, as France has sent a declaration of war and the only way to avoid defeat is to create a stronger union with Spain.
Some of these marriages / partnerships can change over time, and one of the big changes could be frequency or even existence of sex within the marriage. Find out the different reasons people marry and ways to keep a health sex life and marriage in this episode of About Sex, with Angela Skurtu, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Sex Therapist, and her husband, Josh.

A group of people have taken up the torch that many of us are not willing or able to hold. They are taking one on the chin for those that need it the most. These individuals are called "Hand Angels" and their main function is to give sexual pleasure to disabled individuals. Pretty amazing. Find out more in this week's episode of the About Sex Podcast.

Many people make it to adulthood without having any proper sex education. Some parents even will wait until the night before the wedding and then pull them aside for a quick chat about the birds and the bees.
Really.
Many states in the US also allow for medically innacurate sex education and this leads to a lot of misinformation and shame around sex, including clitoral orgasms, penis and labia sizes, common sexual dysfunctions and more. Find out about this and a whole lot more in this week's episode of the About Sex Podcast.

Your body is changing all the time. Once, you were but a babe, hairless and just a squishy pile of giggles and dirty diapers. You grew to become a child, then a teenager, with new hair everywhere and an awakening of your sex life, and then on to adulthood. But the last stage can be just as exciting. Sex in your older years may come with some new challenges, but the happiest seniors have a strong sex life and find ways to work around the aches and pains. Find out more in this week's episode of About Sex.
