169. His Porn Her Pain - Sex Therapist Marty Klein, PhD Jul 24, 2022

Show notes

Dr. Marty Klein has been a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Certified Sex Therapist for over 35 years. He has focused his entire career toward a single set of goals: telling the truth about sexuality, helping people feel sexually adequate & powerful, and supporting the healthy sexual & intimate expression and exploration of women & men. He practices in Palo Alto.

He has written 7 books, translated into 11 languages and has given over 1,000 lectures.

Why are people so against porn? Or why not be against porn?

The Ice Cream/Broccoli hypothesis

‘When people have low desire for lousy sex, that is not surprising” – Dr. Klein

Should we worry about porn dehumanizing women?

What is the number one fantasy by women?

Should you actually live our your sexual fantasies?

“Sexual fantasies do not have meaning” – Dr. Marty Klein

Porn addiction – define?

What about porn users who aren’t functionally sexually at home?

Is porn infidelity? What about sexting someone else? Only Fans?

Talk about the power struggles couples get in and think it is about porn

“The ultimate issue in many couples in conflict about pornography is the decline or disappearance of their once enjoyable sex life. While it is common to say that the porn user is selfish and rejecting of their partners, a lot of porn use is actually a desperate attempt to stay in a sexually unfulfilling couple.”

What to do if no longer attracted to your spouse? How is this not porn’s fault if it makes you get off to perfect bodies?

“Desire in middle age does not feel like desire at 23 years old” – Dr. Marty Klein

What he wishes women knew about their male partner’s porn.

What would you like to tell the men?

Why are there not enough sex therapists and what should I do about it?

167. Femtech Boss! Sold “Female Viagra” for 1 Billion Then Took it Back - Cindy Eckert! Jul 10, 2022

Show notes

She started with Slate Pharmaceuticals, which redefined long acting testosterone treatment for men then moved to Sprout Pharmaceuticals which broke through with the first ever FDA-approved drug for low sexual desire in women — dubbed “female Viagra” by the media. After selling the company for $1B in 2015, she successfully fought to get the drug back and launch it on her own terms. Meet Cindy Eckert! Addyi - Filbanserin - The first FDA approved medication to treat the condition Hypoactive (low) Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD), characterized as frustrating low libido, is the most common form of sexual dysfunction in premenopausal women. Though not fully understood, HSDD is believed to be caused by an imbalance of chemicals in the brain. Are we limiting women by “protecting them”? How did Addyi come into her life? Data on Addyi and breast cancer is coming out! Prescription versus supplements and what is “natural”? You make it look glam – but is it a slog? She wants to make 1 Billion of wealth for women! “Success comes from courage” – Cindy Eckert. https://addyi.com https://thepinkceiling.com https://www.instagram.com/cindypinkceo/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyuSZ80-kZI Love these interviews?
