Today on the James Alteger show. I'm a human sexuality professor here. I'm in the psychology department at UW. And yeah, I teach a really large class, 4,000 students a year, all about sex. Let's face it, a lot of people are watching a lot of porn.

And that can kind of give this idea that you have to have all these, you know, 8 million students. style Olympic positions in order for it to be hot, that you are meant to be having multiple orgasms and having a sexual response that is completely exaggerated and not representative at all of how real bodies work. That you're meant to have rough sex, right? Creating this sense that you may be somebody they're interested in, but they're not quite sure. We can get

into that chase mode, we can get into that almost obsessive partner where it almost has more to do with, frankly, unresolved childhood wounds where maybe you never felt like there was a full sense of conditional love from your parents. But without even blaming our parents, it can just get into almost an addiction to that uncertainty. That is not chemistry. The number one sexual fantasy is passion and romance, feeling wanted. This isn't your average business podcast and he's not your average host.
