You’re kinky but your partner is vanilla. Or maybe it’s the other way around. Perhaps you’ve always known; perhaps you just found out. So how do you talk about it? And what happens next?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with \u201cedge expert,\u201d certified sex therapist, and master social worker Dr. Stefani Goerlich about her new book, <\/span>With Sprinkles on Top: Everything Vanilla People and Their Kinky Partners Need to Know to Communicate, Explore, and Connect<\/span><\/i><\/a>. Give a listen to this much-needed discussion about destigmatizing kink and expanding our definition of a healthy relationship, as Tami and Stefani discuss: reassessing our sexual attitudes; how kinky became taboo; bringing kink into the \u201ccultural redemption arc\u201d; the misconceptions about trauma and kink; the concept of authority exchange; surrender and relaxation; kink as a relational, not a sexual, behavior; moving from secrecy to shared knowledge; decorating and enhancing one\u2019s \u201ccore vanilla-ness\u201d; discovering your fantasies; the nature of fetishes; understanding your erotic map; and more.<\/span><\/p>\n
