On Tuesday, I explored the topic of solo sex and how it can help you reignite your libido and enhance your overall pleasure. Solo sex relieves stress, improves sleep quality, and builds self-confidence, among numerous other benefits. 

As you explore what your body wants and needs, solo sex can also help you achieve more and more fulfilling orgasms. Today, we’re going to be examining the concept of the orgasm gap, why men have more orgasms than women in heterosexual relationships, and how we can close that gap. 


Here’s what’s ahead in this email for paid subscribers:

  • The orgasm gap: why men have more orgasms than their women partners

  • “The third shift” and the emotional labor of women’s sex lives

  • Looking Within: exploring your orgasms
