Possibly insightful ideas around intimacy, attachment, and passion and how they connect to sexuality and intercourse.

A relationship cannot move to attachment without intimacy

Is porn addiction an intimacy/attachment issue? Houston raises this point and I do believe it’s plausible in some cases. However, I think it’s also plausible that it could be a dopamine issue. Reflective of how good it may feel.

I really liked the illustration of boundaries
The argument made here is abuse, abandonment, and attachment styles can play a role in sexual dysfunction, or sexual ‘confusion’

I will say I do like the idea of containment
A safe space to express oneself, perhaps with radical honesty without judgement or religiosity.

Wounds inflicted affect our ability to connect, our access to sexuality.

‘sexual confusion’ is a result of wounds? What about children who had good attachments with their parents? That rationale does not hold up.
