Everyone talks about their own first sexual experience, but what about being on the other side of it?

In this bonus episode of Sexual Encounters: The Very First Time, we flip the script and explore what it feels like to be the more experienced partner during someone else’s first time. From nerves and pressure to tenderness, vulnerability, and emotional connection, we unpack the realities of intimacy, dating, relationships, and first-time sexual experiences.

With insights from returning sexpert Dr. Markie Twist, this episode explores the emotional and cultural dynamics that shape intimacy when you’re someone’s “first,” challenging common myths about confidence, control, experience, and detachment.

Whether you’ve been someone’s first love, first sexual partner, or first intimate connection, this conversation invites reflection on the unexpected emotions and responsibilities that can come with it.
