The great sex workshop - week three

by Dr Patti Britton
continued from page 1
Speak personally, forming statements or questions that begin with the word 'I'. For example, if you are tired of not getting the kind of attention you desire before sleep, instead of saying, 'You never touch me anymore,' why not try, 'I'd really like it if you would touch me like you used to. Could you rub my back for a few minutes while we cuddle?' That way, he doesn't feel the stinging arrows from one of the three killers of intimate talk - blaming, complaining and explaining - that usually succeed in pushing away a loved one.

Now let's get to another aspect of sexual communication. If you are like thousands of women and men, the sheer act of 'talking dirty' may send you screaming into the night. I have coached many women to say sexy words and to feel confident and sexy when they say them. Practising alone in front of a mirror is a good way to grow comfortable before you utter such things to your lover. This week, focus on what you say and how you say it. Say aloud, about 10 times, those words that make you queasy, and you will discover how they lose their cringe-making sound over time. Watch adult movies or share a stimulating bedtime story with your partner.
