1280 - Are People Hard Wired for Kinky Sex & Non-Monogamy? w/ Dr. Zhana

Dr. Zhana, PhD, NYU professor of Sexuality, called in to talk all about sex and science and how and why some people are actually wired for non-monogamy and kinky sex. Tune in to hear all the details including the fair amount of evidence out there that shows there’s a strong genetic component to some people being way more open sexually than others, how and why non-monogamy should be an option for certain people, her early curiosity toward sex and sexual exploration and how that led her to study sexuality in college, the stigma she faced and how and why she decided not to let it stop her from being adventurous as well as not let it stop her from seeking a committed, romantic, and open relationship, her current open relationship and how it’s set up, how and why they were monogamous the first year before opening up and why she recommends that for other couples, the initial stage of infatuation and chemistry in a new relationship and how long that lasts as well as how to prolong it, the book she’s writing on sex and relationships and the five relationship structures that exist and what they are, plus info about the research study she’s conducting for the book and how you can be part of it, and a whole lot more.
