SoS #279: Intimacy Issues

February 23, 2018

Intimacy is one of those words that has lost it's meaning - and it is time to excavate the meaning of intimacy and see where it fits in the complicated reality of human sexuality.


In this episode, we investigate the meaning of "intimacy" and propose a more deliberate and meaningful use of the word. What does intimacy really mean? How does it play out in all of our relationships? When we want more sexual intimacy, how do we get it? What happens when we don't want to be intimate?


Intimacy is sometimes understood as "in-to-me-see" - is this a useful concept? If so, who do we want to let in - and what conditions do we need to create in order to make that safe?


In this episode we take a candid look at the concept of intimacy and reveal it to be much more than a euphemism for sex!
