This Thing We Call Sex

David Steinberg, author of “This Thing We Call Sex,” returned to the program. (You can listen to Part 1 of the interview, which aired on April 14, 2015.) David’s core message is that sex is important for everyone … a treasure to be celebrated, and a path to self-knowledge. Dr. Diana and David first discussed MONOGAMY. Quoting Oscar Wilde: “Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.” Perhaps we confuse love with lust – even though the two are as distinctly different as red wine and blue cheese! Myths about monogamy: people in open relationships have psychological problems. Because open relationships require well-developed communication skills, and a high level of self-awareness, research has shown they are no more or less dysfunctional. EROTIC IMAGES and David’s fine art erotic photography were explored. Steinberg is a word person … and then he discovered the visual world: photographing people enjoying the emotional, joyful connection as they were sexual!

Dr. Dudley Danoff, author of “Penis Power” — May 5, 2015

PenisPower

Dr. Dudley Danoff, M.D., known for his wisdom and wit, discussed life and love – both good to enjoy to the fullest! Dr. Danoff is a board-certified urologist who for years has helped couples achieve the emotional intimacy and physical satisfaction they desire. His book “PENIS POWER – The Ultimate Guide to Male Sexual Health” acknowledges women, too, in his “Women’s Top 10 Complaints,” which include a husband without sexual skills. Dr. Diana asked, “Why is it that so many people are still suffering from a lack of sexual fulfillment?” Anyone can learn techniques, but technique alone will not make him or her a good lover. Dr. Danoff knows that when a man satisfies a woman, he frees her from harboring negative feelings such as frustration, disappointment, and anger. He needs to communicate and appreciate! His M.O. is inspirational: “The more you give of yourself, the more you get in return.” Listen to the program to get more! www.PenisPowerBook.com

Bradley Coates, Esq., returned to the program. His book “DIVORCE with DECENCY – The Complete How To Handbook and Survivor’s Guide to the Legal, Emotional, Economic, and Social Issues” is in its Fourth Edition. Brad and Dr. Diana discussed the basic differences between men and women and its impact on their relationships. Researchers are discovering that when we talk, fight, flirt, or even exchange a moment’s glance with our fellow humans, we physically shape one another’s brains. Brad’s book looks at the male & female differences: mentally, in terms of values, communication, and sexually. Please listen. You will enhance your existing relationship – or, perhaps, prevent a divorce!

This Thing We Call Sex

David Steinberg, author of “This Thing We call Sex,” knows that sex is who we are, how we live – and how we experience desire, yearning, joy, and life! His book is a collection of his writings on sex and gender – documenting the American sexual landscape from teenage sexuality to Viagra, swingers’ parties to erotic spirituality, lap dancing to women’s sexual liberation, fine art sexual photography to pornography, homophobia to BDSM – visiting many sexual worlds! Dr. Diana and David discussed the Seattle Erotic Art Festival and his participation in it (April 23-25, 2015). MEN and PORNOGRAPHY is one of his chapters, and it addresses some unresolved sexual issues – namely, sexual scarcity, rejection, and the fear of being sexually undesirable. MONOGAMY MYTHS is another chapter in David’s thoughtful book. There will be more discussion on this topic – as well as others — when David returns for Part 2 on May 12, 2015.  Please go to his website www.DavidSteinberg.us for a signed copy of his book — or purchase  copy at Amazon.com.

Barbara and Michael Jonas returned for a lively, informative Part 2 describing their romantic games! Please remember to go to www.TimeforTwo.com where you can download either Romantic Interlude or Make-a-Date at no cost, using the code Wiley. This offer will remain for one more week. If you listen to the program, you will see why this is an unbelievably attractive offer! We focused on their game Fan the Flames  — remembering that re-sparking isn’t a chore…it’s a delight! The Jonas’s have heard from thousands of couples over the years – in response to An Enchanting Evening or another of their romantic games. They talk about “Six Satin Strings to Tie Around Your Finger”: (1) Being attentive…aware (2) Being appreciative…considerate (3) Being together…building a partnership (4) Being yourself…celebrating two individuals (5) Finding humor…laughing together (6) Being intimate…being affectionate. Dr. Diana discussed each point with Michael and Barbara. A quote from their book by Jules Renard says a lot: “If I were to begin life again, I should want it as it was. I would only open my eyes a little more.”
