“Hi—I’m from Utah. A very highly religious state and area. I’m 61 and my husband is 63. We are super active in our intimate relationship and currently it is wayyyy better than it’s ever been. Thank you for your podcast. You are very gentle in your approach. I really enjoy listening. After 40 years of marriage, we are still learning and growing. That’s why I’ve been listening. Our sex life has evolved over the years. Is that normal? My husband has taken years to open up to me about his sexual desires. Is that normal? I’ve always been secure and open with him. Sometimes he’d make me feel guilty for wanting to try new things that he deemed sketchy. His family really put a fear in him about sex and that anything they deemed unnatural was forbidden. My parents( same religion) kissed openly in front of us and we knew they loved each other. We were not told that anything was not right. Discussions were very open for us. It’s concerning that my husband has had to stifle himself for years. At least that is what he was told. And we are just now opening up more fully. Even though we’ve had a wonderful sexual relationship for 40 years. How many other couples have had this issue? It kind of makes me sad. For him.”
