The Two Key Elements in Every Healthy Sexual Relationship

As you’ll have heard me share in other videos and blogs, I’ve experienced a lot ofheartbreak and heartache引起的infidelityat the hands of past partners, so I know how important it is to discuss and agree on the terms of a sexual relationship.

There’s a huge difference between consensual and non-consensual monogamy, and if one partner thinks a relationship is monogamous and the other thinks it’s casual, you’re going to run into problems. And this is exactly why it’s so important to haveopen and honestconversations about our sexual needs, including about whether you’re in a sexually casual relationship or a monogamous one.

But the only way to interrupt this stigma — and clear up any confusion about whether you’re in a casual or monogamous relationship — is to talk about it!

In this video, I talk about my views on casual vs. monogamous sex, the two pillars of a healthy sexual relationship, and why it’s so important to be open about talking about sex. Watch now to hear what I’ve got to say!
