Dr. Murray uncovers how and when the shift happens when men say they don’t feel “as much as a man as I used to,” and worry if their partner is thinking the same thing. Delving into the challenges of how men can be authentic in expressing their sexual desires when the chasm of expectations and standards keeps them hiding their true sexual health and concerns.

Dr. Murrya’s favorite finding from the research was discovering how deeply men wanted to feel sexually desired, physically cared for, close to someone, and romantically wanted, despite being part of a culture that minimizes these sexual experiences, vulnerabilities, and intimate desires.

Remembering that sex can be much more than penetration can open up that trust, emotional connection, and broader conversation to shift your sexual encounter into the experience you truly crave.
