SEX AND LOVE, LUST AND INFIDELITY Wednesday Martin and Lewis Howes

Service Sex

Wednesday Martin introduces the concept of "service sex," where individuals engage in sexual activity primarily to satisfy their partner's needs, often at the expense of their own desires. She highlights that this dynamic is prevalent among women, who may feel pressured to maintain a partner's satisfaction, leading to a lack of personal fulfillment and potential resentment 1. Martin emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing this issue to foster healthier relationships.

Service sex isn't the answer because it means that you're basically becoming subservient about your own desires.

By understanding the implications of service sex, couples can open a dialogue about mutual satisfaction and redefine their sexual health 2.
