1. How to finally discover what turns us on, how to discuss turn-offs – and how to create “sex menus” with our partners.

2. The real reason so many of us don’t feel like having sex. 

3. How to ask for more sex – and how to turn it down without hurting your partner. 

4. Orgasm – why it’s not the whole shebang – and what to do if we’ve been faking it. 

5. Glennon and Abby engage in an exercise to practice talking dirty. (Glennon has not recovered.)
