Ep 192: Men’s “Clarity” After Sex


Listen Later

Are cis/hetero men biologically programmed to experience a type of “post-sex clarity,” or have both men and women fallen victim to the societal norm of objectifying one another and dealing (or not dealing) with the repercussions later? In this Cheaper than Therapy episode, we discuss a recent episode on Vanessa’s partner, John’s, podcast discussing whether or not men have a biological predisposition that makes them interested in dating a specific woman until immediately after having sex with her. 


🌟 Some Takeaways from this Episode:

  • Clarity or Shame: Sitting with yourself to ask the hard question, “Is it really ‘post-sex clarity’ helping you realize you aren’t actually attracted to this person and/or have no emotional connection with them, or is it unconscious shame being brought to the surface because we’ve been conditioned by the societal norm to objectify one another?”
  • Admitting Accountability: Accepting that there may be a subconscious level of manipulating a slightly fabricated connection with the intention of sleeping with a woman, rather than communicating clear intentions throughout 

  • If you find value in these conversations, please take a moment to rate and review the podcast. It helps us reach a larger audience looking for soulful insights!
