Problem
Many of us struggle to both articulate to ourselves as well as to our partner(s) our sexual and/or romantic needs and desires. Your charge is to reflect on why communication can be so difficult.
1) What do you think are the main psychological reasons people can feel uncomfortable talking about their sexual and emotional needs?
2) Are there particular topics that are more difficult to discuss than others? Why?
3) How might sexual scripts influence our ability communicate about our sexual and/or romantic partner(s)?
