It’s safe to say that, sooner or later, every sexually active person will experience something weird or embarrassing during sex. When we start doing stuff with our bodies, the strange and unexpected can happen – it’s just one of the facts of life.

What we can do is prepare ourselves for it and learn how to take these situations in stride, ensuring no participant is left feeling ashamed or uncomfortable. Farting, queefing, accidentally damaging objects or injuring your partner – all of these things can and do happen. But why not make feeling mortified about them a thing of the past?

In Episode 49 of the Get Sex Smart podcast, Dr. Valeria and I share some of the many things that can happen (and often have happened to us) during sex in an effort to normalize them and suggest some ways you can approach those situations. Get ready for a fun, irreverent and – as always – highly informative episode!
