This week in The Labia Lounge I interviewed Jessa Zimmerman, a specialist in helping couples who have different levels of desire in long term relationships.
Jessa and I talk about desire discrepancy and how to overcome the challenges this can pose for a couple, the things that both partners often do that make it worse, and what to do when you're desire levels inevitably change to be different from one another.
We tackle this most common of questions that couples counsellors and sex...
