So every Wednesday, we're dropping a special podcast episode focused on one of your questions. You can Submit your own marriage related question online at NakedMarriagePodcast dot com or by sending us a message on Instagram. Avillas. We've got a great question today, so let's dive in.

We have a good question for y' all today. And that is this. ¿It says, why don't you guys put more emphasis on the importance of mutual climax? ¿And Dave and I were talking about this before we hit record, and we said, do we think they mean both experiencing a climax, or do they mean both experiencing it at the same time? And I think they mean at the.

Same time because we do talk an awful lot about how climax should be the goal for both, and that's important. And we've talked about that so much which leads us to believe they're probably referring to simultaneous.

Simultaneous. Probably. Yes.

Probably the better word. So that's the way we're going to tackle it, like, what about the simultaneous climax, which of course is great. And you know, it's. But it's kind of this elusive unicorn too, because it's so hard to get the timing. Exactly. Right, right.

And it can put a lot of pressure on you.

Yeah. And if that's totally the goal, it's like getting these stars to align, and some of it's out of your control. And then. And then, like if the. If the guy feels like, oh, she's there, so now I can go ahead and climax.

And then she doesn't quite get there.

And she's not quite there. But then he's already too far down. He can't stop the train. And then he goes and. And then there's not a whole lot that he can do to help her get there through intercourse. You know, he can still help her get there through clitoral stimuli, you know, stimulation. Through oral sex, through other things. But if you're trying to both climax through intercourse once the guy finishes, there's not much that he can do because he can't maintain the erection after that for the most part. Unless you wait for him to reset. Which could take a long time and.

It can be frustrating. Like I remember in the beginning of our marriage, I feel like we went through this a little bit because we were. We were, you know, had the understanding that that was. That's how it's supposed to be right. I mean, we were like, oh, this is what it's supposed to be is both go at the same time. And what we quickly found out and gosh in the years of doing marriage ministry, it's really. Not even about that. I mean, that is wonderful. When that can happen, it's really awesome. But it's still just as awesome if you each serve one another and allow each to climax. And because the man is usually stimulated a lot quicker than the woman, it usually involves the man waiting on the woman a little bit and causing, you know, causing both to slow down and to really give each other the space. However, as we shared on here very honestly, when Dave was going through a lot of his thyroid difficulties where he was unmedicated and he had testosterone issues and his levels had like plummeted, we had to be really kind of slower to get. To get your mindset and your. And your body to kind of cooperate. And so I feel like it's more about serving each other than timing out this simultaneous orgasm.

And I've had both extremes like, I mean, I've had. I've had the extreme where, you know, my sex drive was so high that I had a really hard time holding back. And then I've had other extremes where my testosterone got really low. And I had a hard time just with kind of performance in general for a while which was super uncomfortable and not comfortable to talk about either. But we love you guys enough to share our to make you feel better. But, yeah, where we've landed, it is just, you know what we're going to both enjoy sex. We're going to serve each other. And most people that write us and most of the research that we've looked at climaxing simultaneously. Yeah, that's great. But it's. It's rare. It's rare. Very rare for most couples. It's certainly rare for us. It's great when it happens. But I think that there are some benefits of climaxing one at a time also. Because when you climax one at a time when, you know, like when the guy is waiting, making sure that that his wife climaxes before he climaxes, then not only can you enjoy your own climax, but you really get to enjoy watching and fully experiencing your spouse's orgasm and knowing that you're bringing that to them, that you're serving them, you're giving them that pleasure, and that is so rewarding. Whereas if it's happening at the same time, one downside of that is that you're so wrapped up in the intensity of that moment for what you're feeling that you're almost missing what your spouse is experiencing in that moment. So while it's great to go at the same time, I think, you know, and this isn't just looking for the silver lining, I think that there are some real benefits of what happens when you wait on each other and make sure that you both go and experience each other's orgasm in that way.

¿Both have their pros, right?

Both have.

So I just think our main thing is don't put pressure on each other because we do have a lot of you write us and say, like we've never had this happen. ¿Is there something wrong with us? Like you feel like, oh, my gosh, is this not really the person God has for me Because we can't sign simultaneously orgasm and let me tell you that's just a lie from the enemy and so don't let that get in there and kind of mess with you instead serve one another so good guys.

Hey, listen. We've got a resource that if you want to grow in any aspect of your sex life, or if you feel like you need to unlearn some, you know, some just myths about sex and get back to the truth about sex, We have a book called The Counterfeit Climax, which goes into detail about so many things that can create sexual baggage and. And also helps unpack that in a healthy way, helps you and your spouse have conversations that are going to lead you to your best sex life ever.
