J explains why it's a great idea to have a euphemism for sex.

Earlier on in our podcast, we had an episode in which we gave advice to our newlywed selves. Today we want to revisit that topic a bit, but rather than talking to ourselves, we want to share the wisdom we've gained with young wives. Sponsor Thanks to Married Dance, a Christian marital aid and sex toy store, for sponsoring this episode. From the Bible Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 Resources Episode 32: Advice for Our Newlywed Selves Episode 43: Dealing with Sexual Baggage The Bad Plan of Bartering for Sex - Hot, Holy & Humorous Embrace a Sexual Growth Mindset - Hot, Holy & Humorous What I Wish I'd Known Before the Wedding Night - Hot, Holy & Humorous A Letter to My Newlywed Self: Age 25 - Hot, Holy & Humorous Faithful Counseling (now Better Help) Episode 153: Practical Tips for Reaching Orgasm Unlock Your Orgasm: Through a Christian Lens by Bonny Logsdon Burns Orgasm Webinar - ONLY $10!

In this week's Sex Chat Quickie, Chris gives you four tips on dealing with a gag reflex during oral sex.

When we talk about romantic attraction, we think of personal charm, visual appeal, and that spark of chemistry when a certain person is near. But for today's episode, consider this scientific one from Merriam-Webster, defining attraction as "a force acting mutually between particles of matter, tending to draw them together, and resisting their separation." We're not just particles, but we want to be drawn toward our husband and to resist separation from him (and vice versa). But attraction doesn't stay the same over the whole of our marriage. Today, we talk about how we can keep attraction going or revive it if it's been lost. Sponsor Thanks to Share the Soap for sponsoring the episode!
