Casual Sex, Hookups, and Building Sexual Confidence

Welcome back to Asking for Myself, where I ask all the questions you're too afraid to. Today I am joined by sex therapist-in-training training and host of the Handy Mandy Podcast, Amanda Pahl, and sex and relationship coach Dr. Tara, host of the Luvbites by Dr. Tara podcast. Here’s what we get into on the episode:

  • How do you get comfortable having sex with new people after a breakup?
  • How do you not think about your ex during sex and stop comparing them to every new sexual partner?
  • How do you not take it personally when someone is just not that into you?
  • How can you leave a hookup when you’re no longer into it?
  • Are one-night stands worth it? How can you make them more pleasurable?
  • Should you wait a certain number of dates to have sex with someone?
  • Is it okay to bring a sex toy to a hookup?
  • How can you introduce your kinks and desires with a new partner?
  • How much is too much when it comes to having sex under the influence?
  • How do you get someone to wear a condom?

    • This was such a fun episode and I loved every minute of it. I hope you do, too!
