009 Dr. Lori Beth Bisbey I is for Intercourse - a podcast by Dr. Lori Beth Bisbey - A to Z of Sex

Hi everyone! Welcome to the A to Z of Sex.  I’m Dr Lori Beth and I am your host.  We are working our way through the sexual alphabet one letter at a time.  Today’s letter is I and I is for Intercourse.  When talking about sex, intercourse is a word we use for fucking.  Intercourse is also used to refer to communication and that is how we will address it here.  
Want to know fun--and arousing ways to communicate your sexual needs?  Perhaps you want to enliven your "sex-as-usual" with your partner.  Or, maybe you are not sure when or if to have sex with a new partner--or agree to do certain sexual things. No worry.  Today's guest Dr. LeslieBeth Wish, has great advice that is tested and tried with thousands of couples she's counseled.
Dr. LeslieBeth Wish, Ed.D. is an award-winning, nationally recognized author and  licensed clinical psychotherapist, specializing in helping you get smart, brave and intuitive in your love, life and work.  Dr. Wish is the author of her book "Smart Relationships," which is based on five years of research with thousands of couples.  The National Association of Social Workers has placed her on their list of the Top Fifty Who Have Contributed to the Profession.  She is also the subject of biographical entry in many of the Marquis Who's Who Publications for her pioneering work with women.  Dr. Wish served for many years as the Clinical Director of the nationally respected Institute of Family Relations, in the Boston area in Massachusetts.  The Institute was known as one of the first places to receive licensed, professional counseling for sexual issues.
In this episode we spoke about how important communication is and how to make sexual talk easier by making it fun.  Dr Wish talks about having the sex conversation in a restaurant adding an extra layer of excitement or titillation because people around you have no idea what you are talking about.  Dr Wish talked about the first two years or so of a relationship you are in arousal mode and so sex drive is high.  Once you settle into the relationship, that will die down.  It has to we can’t stay in that state forever.  To re-invigorate your sex life, you need to bring surprise back.  Things cannot continue to be predictable.  We talked about ways to breathe new life into the sex life that are easy to try and fun to try.  We highlight laughter as being something that brings couples closer.
