"Kiss and tell. Addressing sexual problems in a relationship. This is Doctor Paul, author of Boomer Girls and host of Ask Doctor Paul. I said kiss and tell for a reason because you're not going to kiss and tell to everyone, you're going to kiss and tell to your significant other. That is what it's all about. Addressing sexual problems in a relationship for many people is not an easy thing, but why not? You're sharing the most intimate communication two human beings can have. Talk about it. If she is doing something or not doing something that you want, tell her. If he is doing something, not doing something, tell him. You are right now at the peak, the ultimate point of communication again, that's what sex is all about. You're bonding, the ultimate communication, the ultimate bonding. And you feel you can't talk about it? Get over it. This is not a cultural thing, it's between you and your person that you love. That's what it's all about. Get real with yourself. Don't worry about what other people say, they don't count, they mean nothing, okay. It's between you and the person you love. Be open about it. Hey, I like to watch porno movies when we have sex. Good. Talk about it. I like to use toys when we have sex. Good. Talk about it. If you sit there and say nothing the other person's not going to know what you like. Or the other person says, you know, I really don't care for that, okay, fine. Can we compromise? Of course we can. It's all about as I said kiss and tell, talk to the other. There are things that people like and things that people don't like. I like you to wear nylons, heels, lingerie. Well fine, I like that too baby. Good. Then we'll do that. You know, whatever it is. Whatever you can talk about you can make happen. This is Doctor Paul. May your fantasies of today be your realities of tomorrow."
