Advertise on podcast: Talking Sex

In a couple of previous episodes, there was discussion on how one figures 'feedback' during or after sex. Specifically in the one with Rohan, we tried to find some answers for this tricky question. It is tricky because asking for it, almost like we are asked about the quality of food at a restaurant, is rather farcical, and, on the other hand, not bothering about it at all is rather regressive and takes so much of the mutuality of sex, a source of much joy, out of the equation. So, in this session, with accomplished psychologist, Dr Preeti Singh, we delved deeper. And like all good conversations we had some lovely digressions along with the exploration of the starting question. The highlight, watch out for 'over-empathy'!Have a listen. Sure you will enjoy it.

The question of intimacy is so intertwined with questions of sex, and so this had to be an episode. And who better than the forthright Pallavi to have as guest.An intimacy expert who has made talking about sex and intimacy her mission. Men and women have been turning to her to get advice on how to have a better appreciation of sex, or indeed on how to have better sex lives. Covering themes of sexlessness, language, spicing things up, female pleasure, moving beyond positions, this episode is a great listen as, say, Intimacy 101.

While the point of the Talking Sex Podcast, and indeed of the Misters brand has been to have an honest, frank and innuendo-free conversation about sex, and men's view of sex, we realised that it has all been rather heteronormative. All straight, in other words. So it was about time to be not that straight. And what a first conversation it was. Sparkling! With Aniruddha and Rahul, two young men talking about how Bollywood makes it harder, the challenges of coming out, the specificity of choices when you first have gay sex (top or bottom?) and how tech has been around for so much longer and has played a much bigger role in gay sex. If there is one podcast you should listen to begin to understand the gay experience, this is it. Also, you must visit Aniruddha's brilliant website, theguysexual.com which is so well described as 'every gay man's pocketbook.'

A deep interest in sex is obviously the reason behind Misters, and in our journey over the last two years we have engaged with tens of thousands of men to figure what is going on. Conversations that have generated compelling stories and numbers. In this episode, we discuss some numbers that seem important, and are not well known, because unlike so many human pursuits and interests, sex is difficult to research.In this episode we talk about the frequency of sex, how that changes with age, and by type of relationships people might find themselves in. It is all utterly fascinating. Play on.
