Ep. 103 - Talking about Sex, Part II
In this episode, we take up part II of our conversation on sex. JP is back with the crew, and we spend most of the episode engaging with his comments on the part I. Much of the discussion turns on a debate about whether we can reliably assume that there are sexual skills and techniques that work well from person to person. Would it be presumptuous to think this? Further, we ask whether good sex - however variable its expression - is nearly always characterized by a certain set of values (e.g., responsiveness, vulnerability, creativity, etc.).
