Partner Does Not Agree with Devices

Video Transcript

Hi there. My name is Dr. Taylor Nolan. I'm a licensed psychotherapist and a certified sexologist, and I'm here to answer a question submitted by the plusOne community. 

This question is, my partner does not agree with using devices. What should I do? 

First and foremost, there's not a whole lot that you can do because we can't make people do things that they don't wanna do, right? 

Second, I want to just affirm to you that what you do with your body is your business, right? You are entitled to deserving of worthy of experiencing and exploring pleasure with your self and with your body. You have a right to do that, okay? 

Third, really all you can do in this type of situation is engage in a conversation led with and focused on empathy and curiosity, okay? To have a conversation that is open and thoughtful with your partner about this. 

I hope that helps.
