How much sex is normal?
What actually is the normal amount to have sex?
What do our girls think? Charlotte: Sex is not the most important thing in a relationship. Samantha: Normal is the halfway point between what you want and what you can get. Miranda: It depends on what’s normal for you.
Guess who is right? Miranda again. The answer is – there is no normal.
Pregnancy Scares
Pregnancy scares are nothing new and can cause mental havoc. But the worry that any sexual encounter could lead to a pregnancy scare is just not accurate or helpful. One of top negative medical messages is that anytime you have sex you will get pregnant. That you have sex just once and you can get pregnant. Better to avoid sex altogether because otherwise you will get pregnant. This is not a healthy message for a life of sex positivity!

Arousal non-concordance is when the brain and the body do not respond the same to sexual stimuli. It’s super common! And knowing how common it is (plus other details) can answer so many questions and improve your sexual wellness.
Not surprising, there are loads of physiologic changes that occur with sexual arousal and sexual stimuli. But what we’re really going to get into today are the genital changes.
If you feel like vibrators are showing up everywhere you’re right – TVs shows, Instagram everywhere, even making it slyly into Architectural Digest (see Cara Delevingne’s photoshoot a few years back – check out what’s conspicuously “hiding” in the cabinet).
What’s the point? Vibrators are nothing to be embarrassed or shy about! They’re everywhere and have been for a while. We also want to convince you to try a vibrator – either solo or with partnered sex! There’s lots of benefits.
Vibrators are becoming commonly discussed and widely available– they’re selling them at the Targets and Walmarts of the world. This movement did not happen overnight – it has been in the works for decades (centuries?)
Let me demonstrate with my favorite examples:
“Can you please recommend a lubricant for sexual activity? I have heard that baby oil may cause infections. You and I discussed coconut oil but I think oils may be too messy. How about something water based like KY Jelly classic? But I also read that water based lubricants may cause infections more than silicone or oil based, and that water based lubricants actually require reapplication and can dry out tissues”.
Yes, patients send these types of messages! And yes, I answered with the right lubricant for her.
Let’s go through her message and see if everything she “heard” / “read” (translation: what the internet says) is correct!
