Sexual Milestones: Who said you only get one first time?
from Unzipping Taboos: Candid Conversations about Sex · host Dr Sue and Charlie
In this episode, we’re taking a fresh look at sexual milestones—the kind that don’t revolve around “losing your virginity.” That term? It’s vague, outdated, and honestly, we’re not fans of that term. So instead of centering one arbitrary moment in your sexual journey, we’re celebrating all the deeply personal “firsts” that shape our sexual lives: the first time you had an orgasm, the first time you got tested for STIs, the first time you tried a sex toy, or talked about a kink with a partner.These moments may not get talked about much, but they matter. A lot.We talk about the emotional weight of these experiences, especially if you are healing from trauma, navigating body changes, or just trying something new later in life. We even touch on milestones like choosing to end a relationship that is no longer right for you—a powerful act of self-care that deserves recognition too.It’s all about curiosity, compassion, and shifting the narrative around what it means to grow sexually. No matter your history or where you are in your journey, we hope this conversation helps you embrace your own timeline and feel seen in the “firsts” that you’re excited about.If you have a story, thoughts and/or a topic or question for Dr. Sue and Charlie please share your ideas here: Show suggestionsTake a listen to Dr Sue talk about virginity on Talk Sex With Annette here: Virginity is a scam!
