Summary

Have you caught your partner looking at porn? Maybe browsing pictures of scantily clad women or men on Instagram or Facebook? This doesn't need to be an issue in your relationship if you know how to talk and deal with it! Our culture largely creates a negative narrative around these issues that can hurt our relationships. Listen to today's episode to learn how to talk to your partner about porn, social media 'stalking' and your relationship. In this episode we discuss relationship advice topics that include: Learn why we aren't really facing what some call a 'porn health crisis'. Understand that it's not the porn, it's the lack of healthy conversations around porn. Is it OK that your partner is 'stalking' the opposite sex on social media? Communicating with your partner about their deepest fantasies and where they came from. The erotic differences between individuals and sexes. Why porn elicits a disgust response in some individuals. And much more! Dr. Joe Kort is the author of four books on gender and male sexuality. He specializes in couples therapy, sex therapy, mixed orientation relationships, and out of control sexual behaviors. He is starting an LGBTQ certification program in the spring.
