Is lasting longer in bed really the goal—or have we been getting it wrong this whole time?

In this Wednesday Quickie episode of Beyond Monogamy with Adam & Pris, we dive headfirst into a topic that gets whispered about but rarely discussed honestly: instant gratification in sex.

After a real-life conversation at the club sparked a bigger realization, Adam and Pris unpack why so many people—especially women—actually prefer when sex doesn't drag on forever. From cultural myths about "five-minute men" to the surprising confidence boost that comes from making someone finish fast, this episode flips traditional sexual expectations on their head.

We talk about:

• Why quick finishes can feel validating, sexy, and powerful
• The pressure men feel to "last forever" and why that expectation is outdated
• How the lifestyle changes arousal, stimulation, and sexual response
• Why communication matters more than performance
• What instant gratification really means emotionally—not just sexually

The conversation then takes a turn into another lifestyle reality most people avoid: how to say no after a sexual experience that just didn't click. Adam and Pris break down why you don't owe anyone an explanation, how avoiding honesty causes more harm than being direct, and why "trying it once" doesn't mean you owe someone a sequel.

If you've ever felt pressure to perform, worried about hurting someone's feelings, or wondered whether you're doing sex "right," this episode is your permission slip to relax—and get honest.

Listener discretion advised. This show is raw, real, and unapologetically adult.
