More Joy, Less Frustration

I'm not sure what sexuality would be without friction; be it social, spiritual, emotional, or physical.  But there's a difference between friction and frustration.  This week's newsletter features two questions from readers who are looking for a little more friction and a little less frustration, plus two tips to help you get there, whether alone or with a partner.  Got questions of your own?  I do my best to respond to all my email, and if I use your question online I always remove any identifiable information.  ~  Cory

I do not want to have sex outside of marriage. Second, I cannot feel my vagina. Third, I have been really horny lately. And, although my religion forbids it, I have been trying to masturbate a lot. Without any sensation "down there", I really do not get any pleasure out of it.   Basically I have a lot of sexual tension but no healthy way of releasing it. Do you have any recommendations? How can I make my masturbation more enjoyable?" READ NOW Sexually Frustrated and Morally Confused    "I have been with the most wonderful man for over 15 years. Despite my many attempts to improve our sex life, he shows very little interest. I just don't know what to do. I feel like I will become more and more bitter the way things are now. However, I'm afraid if I have an affair, it will ruin my marriage, my family and my life. I do not know where to find an answer."
