This is the part people miss. Dynamics like cuckolding or hot wife relationships do not fix anything. They do not repair distance. They do not create trust where there isn’t any. They amplify what is already there.

When communication is solid and respect is mutual, these dynamics become an extension of intimacy, not a replacement for it. When a relationship is already shaky, they tend to expose every crack.

So the real question is not what kind of woman likes cuckolding. It is what kind of woman feels safe enough, grounded enough, and confident enough to define desire on her own terms. And what kind of relationship can actually hold that.

The full conversation goes deeper into why this works for some couples and why it absolutely does not for others.

What kind of woman likes c*ckolding? Probably not the one you think. In this episode, I unpack the real psychology behind c*ckolding and related dynamics like hotwife and stag/vixen. We talk about power, consent, trust, and why this dynamic has nothing to do with broken relationships. I share what research says about the women drawn to it and why s*xual autonomy and emotional intelligence matter more than labels.

This episode is about curiosity, honesty, and breaking silence around taboo desires.

Nobody really prepares you for how desire changes in midlife. We grow up thinking it is supposed to work one way, and when it doesn’t anymore, we assume something is wrong with us or with our relationship. Most of the time, neither of those things is true.

That is what I am talking about at ’s Everybody Wants This: S//xology in the Real World conference later this month. My session is called ‘The Midlife Desire Shift: A New Framework for Pleasure & Connection’, and it stems from years of watching people struggle because they were never given a new map for this stage of life.

In this talk, I share a practical, five part framework that helps make sense of how desire, pleasure, and connection actually work in midlife. We look at things like body awareness, emotional grounding, communication, and pleasure without performance. Not in a theoretical way, but in a way people can actually use. Simple reframes. Simple scripts. Real practices for real bodies and real relationships.
This is not about trying to get back to who you were before. It is about understanding who you are now and learning how to create connection without shame or pressure.
The conference is fully online and runs January 24 through January 25, with recordings available.

If you have ever thought, why does this feel so different and why did no one explain this to me, this conversation is for you.

People hear the word cuckolding and their mind goes straight to ‘broken relationships’. That assumption misses what is really happening for many couples.

This conversation is not about cheating. It is about consent, power dynamics, trust, and why some women are drawn to this dynamic in the first place. When you slow it down and actually understand the psychology behind it, the story changes.

I unpack what cuckolding really is, where the fantasy comes from, and why the woman who enjoys it is often very different from the stereotype people imagine.
The full episode goes much deeper than this clip, and it might challenge a few assumptions along the way.

This moment stopped me.
It explains so much about why men shut down.
And why relationships stall when emotions feel unsafe.
The full conversation goes deeper.
It matters.

YOUR PARTNER’S PERIMENOPAUSE IS NOT A REJECTION.

Read that again.

If you feel pushed away, ignored, or shut out, you are not imagining it.
But you are also not being rejected.

Here is what is happening.

Perimenopause shifts estrogen and progesterone.
Those hormones regulate desire, sleep, mood, pain response, and stress tolerance.

When they fluctuate, the body goes into self protection.

• Desire drops because the nervous system stays on high alert
• Touch feels overwhelming instead of soothing
• Fatigue replaces interest
• Irritability replaces softness
• S*x starts to feel like pressure instead of connection

None of this equals loss of love.
None of this equals loss of attraction.
None of this is about you.

This phase forces the body to prioritize survival over performance.
Your partner is adjusting to a system that no longer behaves the way it used to.

What helps.

• Curiosity instead of accusation
• Patience instead of pressure
• Safety instead of expectation
• Emotional closeness without a sexual agenda

When you stop treating this like personal rejection, intimacy has room to rebuild in a new form.

Perimenopause does not end relationships.
Misunderstanding does.

If this hit close to home, sit with it before reacting.

A herpes diagnosis changes information, not your worth or your ability to have intimacy. Most fear comes from misunderstanding how transmission works and from attaching shame to a medical condition. Many people live full dating and relationship lives with clear communication, basic precautions, and medical support.

When facts replace fear, confidence returns. This is about health management, not moral judgment.

Fear around herpes is driven by misinformation, not facts. Most harm comes from shame, silence, and misunderstanding, not the condition itself. Healthy intimacy depends on honesty, timing, and communication. Risk is situational, not constant. When people understand how transmission actually works, they make calmer, smarter decisions instead of assuming the worst. Knowledge lowers fear. Transparency builds trust.

Many guys miss the moment by changing course too soon. When something is working, consistency matters more than intensity. Staying steady allows trust and momentum to build instead of resetting the experience. Attention and patience often matter more than technique. When you stay present and responsive, connection deepens naturally.

A kiss is more than just lips meeting – it’s an art form, a spark, a language of its own. Want to level up your smooching game? Think slow, playful, and intentional. Add a little tease, a soft touch, or let your lips linger just a second longer.

It’s all about connection, chemistry, and a dash of spontaneity. So, pucker up and let your kisses do the talking! 😘
