61. How To...Feel Frisky When Everything is Fractured.

Happy Wednesday, Happy Hump Day, and Happy Sex on the Peach Day. Hi, it’s me, I’m back, for Season 5 of all things sex and relationships. 

So… quick question. Is anyone else struggling to maintain a sex life while the world is actively ON FIRE?

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if your sex drive has been a bit… inconsistent lately, I would like to gently point out that everything *imagine me gesturing wildly at EVERYTHING* is unhinged. Like truly. Unhinged. And I’ve recognised in the last however many months, how, almost hard, it can feel to be completely present in your sex life when everything feels… unstable. 

Is it weird to want sex more when things feel unstable?
Is it selfish to focus on pleasure when there are bigger things happening?
Is something wrong with my relationship because I don’t feel turned on at all because the vibe globally is… bleak? 

Because the truth is, your sex drive does not exist separately from the world.  You are a body. You have a nervous system that reads headlines as potential threat. We cannot separate global chaos from personal safety as neatly as we’d like. So we’re talking about how to have sex - when everything feels slightly apocalyptic. Which, to be clear, is a sentence I did not think I’d be saying when I started this podcast. But here we are. 

Sex On The Peach is a completely inclusive, open, judgement free zone. However you identify - both in your gender and sexuality, whatever race, age, size, ability, religion you are - everyone is welcome here, and I hope that at some point in an episode we will touch on something you can relate to and resonate with.

Sex On The Peach - A Collaboration, Not A Performance.
