February 22, 2020 at 3:43 PMThis was great. There is so much here around effective communication, bonding with your partner, seeing the power of sex as a tool for intimacy, etc. Honestly whats funny is that people are likely to listen to this and view it as “about sex” but what I really think it’s about is two people that care about each other investing the daily effort to work things through, share intimacy, and watch each other’s backs. Very cool.
