Our sex lives are subject to many gendered messages and narratives which shape how we think that our sex lives 'should' look. Engrained messages about masculinity, manhood and how men should act in sexual situations can influence sex lives both consciously and unconsciously, in what today's guest Cam Fraser describes as the idea of 'Man Box Culture'. Cam and I unpack some of the myths of masculinity and sex that are impacting men. We also talk about how the language that we use can be influential and how opening up our definitions of sex and sexuality can be helpful for everyone. ••• Cam Fraser is a Certified Professional Sex Coach, Certified Sexologist, Registered Counselor, and Registered Tantric Yoga Teacher.
