I'm Not Sexually Attracted to My Partner—Are We Done?
from Porn, Betrayal, Sex and the Experts — PBSE · host Steve Moore & Mark Kastleman

This template is largely programmed into us by our upbringing, media, culture, peers, porn, etc. BUT, we are NOT trapped in the same unchanging template--it CAN change, evolve and mature.
