Most of this episode is dedicated to an in-depth look at how Keith triages potential partners he finds on dating apps. Before you brush it aside, consider that Keith almost certainly has knowledge about this domain that goes past the ordinary man.

We discuss various women who come up on one of the popular dating apps for Keith, how he might approach them, and what he thinks of them. There's also talk of general trends he's observed, what works, and what does not. And we discuss Keith's profile and photos as well.

Later, we get into a woman who wonders why her partner seeks more "closeness" while she's sitting on his face. And, is it smart for a woman to tell her partner that her vibrator really gets the job done better for her?

We get a lot of our questions from Reddit, so for our listeners' enjoyment, here are links to some of the questions we discussed this week:

Does it mean that I'm sheltered that I have no personal experience with people who believe astrology is real? In high school, I knew a young man who believed fervently in evangelical Christianity, so much so that he now leads a well-known southern church as its pastor. But I always imagined that deep down he didn't really believe the things he was saying.

The frequency with which Keith purports to encounter such beliefs on dates has me thinking that people really do go for this stuff and don't view it all as parlor tricks. Or, perhaps, as my grandfather said, "You have to believe something."

We had what I thought was an interesting discussion about whether it does women any harm at all to make a guy wait for sex. It seems likely to me that it does do women harm to be forced to decide whether to make a relationship sexual after only two or three dates. And I do believe in general that it's the woman's choice.

And, does a woman asking for more "animalistic" sex just mean she's not that into the guy? Should a woman somehow compensate a man she's dating if she wants to do OnlyFans, or does that make him some sort of pimp? And why does he want money anyway?

Keith reveals the details of his condom-discussion strategy during dinner with a new partner. It turns out that you can undertake a discussion that simultaneously conveys that you're a reasonable partner and that subtly asks whether sex is on the table that evening. Also, it becomes evident that very few men have such a conversation or behave in a reasonable way around condom use.

A discussion ensues about how exactly (other than the obvious) Keith should react when a woman initiates oral sex on him early in a sexual encounter. He's concerned about her expectations for how far he should let things develop before transitioning to PIV sex.

And then we transition into the question of whether society views these things fundamentally through the male gaze. Does society consider submissiveness to be problematic? Is giving oral sex inherently embarrassing?

Is the prone-bone sex position athletic for the man? What about other positions? And, what does it mean if your partner offers you "free use" of her body for sex?

A lively conversation with Allison, who works with women who are dating after getting out of a long-term relationship. Allison is also an author. Her book, "Find Love Again: Learn how to Date Like A Goddess," penned under the name Allison Jayne, seeks to help women navigate the dating, relationships and sex.

According to Allison, essentially no guys offer to use a condom when having sex with a new conquest for the first time. This led Keith to offer what I consider some pretty solid advice for men to turn this to their advantage.

Allison also has a healthy sex drive, and she helped us understand the differences between clitoral and internal orgasms. She described how entering the dating pool enabled her to explore her sexuality in a way that wasn't really possible while married.

Well, it's about time we talk about a person with a truly off-the-map sexual experience. In this case, it's a woman who spent many years in amorous relations with her canine buddy. I can't say I've ever felt the desire to be in such a situation, but starting as it did in her younger years, I can understand some level of confusion. And her poor partner who now has to process this information.

We discuss in reasonable detail the ins and outs of vasectomies and relationships. It seems like for younger women learning that a partner has had one might be discourage continuing with the relationship. But maybe a sperm bank could operate as a reservoir of good will?

And, do men think of clits in a way inverse to how they think about penises? Is better worse?

We discuss with Celeste Moore her experiences with coaching mid-life men on dating, how men and women approach sexual experiences, and the during and after of working in a strip club.

I think the typical assumption is that different people experience dating in more or less the same way. But there's a pretty significant gender gap in how things get experienced. This is particularly true at younger ages, when young women might feel like they can "get away" with anything because there are plenty of fish in the sea, and young men are just trying to navigate the maze to get sex.

But, as people age, the tables turn to a significant extent, and maybe what men and women are looking for even begins to look more similar. In my mind, they're both likely looking for membership into exclusive spaces, like the Soho House. Is such a place the same as sugar dating, or is there an important difference? Should people seek partners online or in person? Has dating gone awry?

Which reminds me, I went to the Tesla factory the other day and noticed the rich(ish) tech workers all picking out which car they wanted to buy. On the other side of the parking lot were factory workers getting into busses to be transported back to the train station. I felt more kinship with the latter.

What is there left to say about blowjobs? Keith doesn't like them, but women like giving them. They like that submissive role, giving their man a good safe place to put his semen. What a privilege.

How should a woman take it if she clearly is sexually interested in a man and he's not reciprocating? The sad truth is it probably means he's just not seeing a future with you. That categorically does not mean he won't continue to have sex with you occasionally, but it does very likely mean he wont be pursuing much if any of a commitment.

What's the right response for a woman who is dating a man who only cums from masturbation? And, how should she respond if he texts her after not being able to cum during partnered sex to tell her that right after she left he had a great orgasm from masturbation?

And, should men be embarrassed about premature ejaculation? I know I was sort of embarrassed when I became partially aroused from Keith's description of one such encounter by a questioner.

Can hot girls be good at sex? It's certainly possible, though it might also be the case that a less well-endowed female would try harder in the bedroom to impress her partner. What is pretty evident is that prior to getting into bed, women who are more attractive don't have to work as hard to land a partner.

We finish up our dissection of the audio and questions sent to us last week by a female friend of the show. Then we move on to discuss whether men using sex toys is (at least somewhat) aberrant. A man wants to know how he can last longer in general, and we discuss the difficulties in that area early in a relationship.

And, what is the right set of tongue movements when performing oral on a woman? Should it be random? Rhythmic? Systematic?

A kind listener wrote in to ask some questions and to provide us with what I have to admit is a pretty good audio of her masturbation session and orgasm. I want to mention this up front, because we'd certainly like to receive more content like this in the future. From women. Not from men. But also, if you like listening to women orgasm, you should consider listening to this episode now.

What would you do if you proposed an MFM threesome to your female partner, whom you'd never provided an orgasm through intercourse alone, and within the first minute of the other man penetrating her she had an orgasm. A pretty crushing situation for the man, and confusing for the woman. She's thinking, "He's going to be so happy I had fun." He's wondering, "Why is this other guy's cock so much more effective than mine?"

What's going on in a situation where a woman feels so unable to refuse sex that even when she has Covid she feels obligated. And, is she really proud to be able to offer him "all three holes"? Or is it just some sort of weird training she's undergone?

I'm just going to assume people want to look at Mike's new subreddit. And they should, because it's a pretty good set of porn. Also, it'll give you a nice sense of the reach of our YMMV empire so far:

Threesome trouble stories are our bread and butter, and this episode is no exception. We have both an MMF and an MFF tale of woe to bring to you. Then there's this question about how much less pleasure men get from sex when wearing a condom. Keith says it's "a lot worse." Women don't care that much about PIV sex in many instances anyway, so what's even the point?

But look I don't want to bury the lede too much here. We discussed just how much money it would take in various instances for Keith to be willing to engage in gay sex. It's pretty expensive, but there's a wide range depending on exactly what he has to do. Maybe one of our listeners/benefactors will step up to the plate and make it happen?

We discuss whether a woman should prefer giving the first 90 percent of a blowjob or the last 10 percent. It's honestly not clear.

And a word on glory holes. I've never rightly seen someone using one in person. For me they operate more as a sort of philosophical entity, useful for distinguishing what exactly you'd be willing to do, when and to whom. And, what level of certainty you'd require. Listeners should carefully consider their own preferences when listening to our discussion points here. How much certainty would you really need regarding who is on the other side of the glory hole?

And, a man has never received oral sex. What exactly is he missing out on?
