    Rethinking Men and Sex (You Are NOT The Bad Guy)

    So much of what we are told about masculinity and desire keeps relationships stuck in a cycle of blame and disconnection. Sex counselor Fran Frye joins us to unpack why nervous system regulation is actually the foundation for better boundaries and intimacy. We discuss how to move beyond the scripts that shame men and flatten women, replacing them with actual erotic intelligence and honest communication. Julia and Fran unpack how shame, trauma, and bad sex education keep people disconnected from their bodies and from each other. From the “wheel model” of sex to the importance of sexual agreements, this conversation offers a more expansive way to think about pleasure, consent, and what it means to feel truly seen. Fran also shares how her own healing changed the way she sees men, what she learned volunteering in abuse, rape crisis, trafficking, and hospice settings, and why compassion is not the opposite of accountability - it’s what makes change possible. Essential listening if you want a more nuanced, honest, and liberating conversation about sex, relationships, and the stories we tell ourselves about desire. You’ll discover: Why nervous system regulation is foundational to healthy sex and boundaries The difference between spontaneous and responsive desire How compersion can transform jealousy, insecurity, and relationship fear Why sexual integrity matters more than labels like “sex addiction” How couples can actually talk about sex without starting a fight Fran Frye is a Sex Counselor who supports men online in getting more of what they want in the bedroom.
