Sexuality Sexuality Sex Tips Sex Talk Sex Toys From Cory Silverberg A few weeks ago people were sharing a brilliant poster online.  It took famous lines from classic movies, and represented each in chart form.  One of my favorites was the visual representation of the Abbot and Costello's Who's on First Base? And it inspired the theme of this week's newsletter.  We often think of having to initiate sex as something that is only a problem for fumbling teens.  But for adults, particularly those in long term relationships, the question of who initiates sex (and who doesn't) can become a mine field of accusations, guilt, and bitterness.  Humor is one way to address the issue.  But since I'm not that funny I thought I'd try earnestness instead.   ~  Cory     Who's On First or How to Stop Worrying and Get Sex Started If you're struggling with the question of how to initiate sex or who "should" be doing it, here are eight tips for you to read and possibly share as a less than passive suggestion to your partner.   Search Related Topics:  initiate sex  sex tips for couples  sex how tos Help Me Help My Boyfriend!
