    How to get better at talking about sex

    Whether it’s with our friends or, more crucially, with our partners, sex IS something we need to be able to communicate about if we want it to be good. But it’s so hard! Why? Because for all the other messages we get around sex, all the things we’re taught or that we glean from our culture or the media… no one tells us how to talk about it.

    Why don’t I want sex?

    Somewhere along the way we’ve been taught that desire should just exist without any conscious effort, like hunger or thirst. And if it doesn’t – uh oh – that means something is wrong. But this idea of sex as a “drive” is actually a myth. And like so many myths, it’s standing in the way of us having good, fulfilling sex lives.  The Second Circle is produced, written, hosted by Franki Cookney Audio production: Anouszka Tate   Title track: Roof - Big Spoon (Instrumental Version) Background music: From Now On - Small Circuits / Beautiful Minds - Brighter Than Tomorrow / Maybe - The Universe is a Bitch  All music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Transcript: https://bit.ly/badsexE05 Support the Show.

    When your body doesn't feel sexy

    Faulty penises, unruly pubes, and unexplained pain: When our bodies don’t look or work the way they’re “supposed” to, it can feel like a real barrier to good sex. So what can we do about it? Do we push on through anyway? Seek treatment? Or adjust our expectations?  The Second Circle is produced, written, hosted by Franki Cookney Audio production: Anouszka Tate   Title track: Roof - Big Spoon (Instrumental Version) Background music: _91Nova - Moiety / Tilden Parc - Wanna Know All music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Transcript: https://bit.ly/badsexE04 Support the Show.

    Why is it so hard to feel good?

    One in eight women and one in twenty men say they lack enjoyment during sex. For all the conflicting messages we get around sex, most of us know that on some level we’re supposed to enjoy it. But there are a lot of things that can stand in our way.  The Second Circle is produced, written, hosted by Franki Cookney Audio production: Anouszka Tate   Title track: Roof - Big Spoon (Instrumental Version) Background music: Tilden Parc -  Wanna Know /  Moon Craters - A Spinning Earth / Maybe - The Universe is a Bitch All music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Transcript: https://bit.ly/badsexE03 Support the Show.

    Mixed messages and faulty scripts

    Where do we learn about sex?  Who do we learn it from? What do those people and establishments actually tell us… about what sex IS and what it’s supposed to mean? And is it possible… is it possible…  that some of what we’re being told might be directly contributing to our experiences of bad sex?

    Aren't we all sex positive now?

    While plenty of us still grow up in families and communities where sex is taboo or there are strict rules around it, on a broader societal level here in Western Europe it’s fair to say sex is no longer seen as sinful. Sex is good, it’s healthy, it’s normal, it’s empowering! We’re living in this lovely, glossy, horny world where we’re told that good sex is not just our aim, goddammit, it’s our right… so what gives?

  8. SEASON 4 TRAILER

    Coming Soon: The Second Circle Series Four "BAD SEX"

    Awkward. Dissatisfying. Painful. Shameful. Disappointing. Miserable. Or just a bit… meh. The Second Circle is back with a NEW series looking at the type of sex we’ve definitely all experienced: bad sex. Combining in-depth reporting with real life stories, BAD SEX takes listeners on a journey through the less desirable side of sex: from dissatisfying hookups, to sexual dysfunction, body image issues, and shame. Forget hot tips and kinky tricks. In this six-part series, journalist Franki Cookney turns sex advice on its head and asks: what makes sex bad in the first place?
