How Can You Be Irritated and Aroused at the Same Damn Time?

from Sex in Real Life with Stacey Herrera · host Stacey Herrera

There are things that our partner says or does that grate on our very last nerve. But sometimes, as annoyed as we may be, we find desire bubbling to the surface. In this episode, Stacey gets into the alchemy of irritation and desire, and why the thing that drives you absolutely batshit crazy might also stir your loins.   Suggested Reading: Arousal transfer (a.k.a.
