Desire is a Decision
Episode Number:
017 
For men, sexual desire tends to be a reaction, whereas for women, desire often requires a decision. For women, desire tends to show up after women mentally decide to engage, followed by some degree of mental/emotional and/or sexual arousal. In this episode #017 of “The Marital Intimacy Show,” intimacy expert, Laura M. Brotherson, helps women identify four things that often get in the way of that first step of deciding to “go with it.” Couples don’t have to be hostage to that elusive “mood” when they understand a woman’s unique sexual wiring.
