We Took the Sexual Temperament Quiz with Dr. Emily Nagoski

Sextember continues! Did you know there’s no such thing as a sex drive?

These glasses are now the Sextember glasses and need to be worn for the rest of the month.

[@CherrrrBear]

100% lol

[@zozeeb]

Emily was THE GREATEST guest y'all have ever had!! I felt like she was down to clown, and get in on the sillyness- while also being incredibly insightful in the most amazingly relatable, and understandable way, using her doctorate mastery to provide insight. I will DEFINITELY be checking out her books now!

[@aureliamonap]

Emily mocking Link about his "It's free!" comment brought me to tears laughing. Such a great guest!

[@kmjc1213]

Yeah I'm not sure Link will ever be able to live that one down!

I'm impressed, in a surprised and delighted kinda way, at how open and honest and bold Sextember is. Kudos!! 👏🏻 👏🏻

ohh I was wondering why these past few Ear Biscuits have been focused on these types of topics. Interesting theme.

[@libbibunni]

Sextember has GOT to be my fav month of the year. some of the funniest and most interesting content

[@chrissyb6647]

I appreciate that y'all brought up asexuality, as an asexual I was not even expecting that to be a part of this conversation, so I'm always pleasantly surprised when asexuality is brought up/included without us asexuals begging to be recognized

[@nicolassycamore]

“oh i was talking about candles” never change, link

[@platoschauvet]

The discussion about asexuality was so unexpected and lovely, thanks for that, and this whole episode was great, what a great guest. I'm an asexual person fascinated by stuff like this in the same way i'm an atheist fascinated by religion, so these episodes are really great listens, and so hilarious too

[@BipolarB]

Im super glad yall talked about asexuality, and think it would be cool to see you talk to an asexual educator or something.

[@SliverOfSilverStars]

yeah I agree!! I think there is so much that people can learn from the a-spec community, even if they are not asexual. Like one example is the split attraction model which is so interesting, yet mostly only ace people talk about it. But I think allosexual people could really learn something about themselves if they stop to think about all these different types of attraction, and even just stop to ask what "attraction" is or means to them.

[@bnhalemon7098]

If you guys were looking for a term for non asexual people, it exists: allosexual I’m ace, (or somewhere on the spectrum) and it’s great to hear you guys talk about asexuality

[@patchoulikate]

I LOVE that you guys do Sextempter! It's so refreshing to hear about "taboo" 🙄 topics discussed by people we love and trust. Emily is amazing and this made me feel affirmed in my couple.

[@daniellenatasha8433]

As a September baby I have always been a little sad that it’s a pretty boring month with no major holidays or anything fun going on. But now that Sextember is officially a yearly occurrence that’s no longer the case! Definitely one of my favorite things you guys have contributed to the internet thus far :)

[@drelle504]

There's Labor Day. School is back in session. The NFL season kicks off in September. It's a good month.

[@bigbeefscorcho]

I can’t say enough how much I appreciate their usage of gender-inclusive language, like saying “people with a penis” or “people with a vulva”. It may seem like a little thing to most cis people but it not only is more correct in describing who is being referred to, but also just shows me that Rhett and Link care enough to take the time to speak in an inclusive way.

[@jessicalinde8558]

Honestly, that my numbers are 18 and 4 explains SOOOOO much. Thank you for enlightening me, Emily!

[@spectral__]

This is the only month I listen to Ear Biscuits. Don't usually have time, but I make time for this.

[@beitermf]

LOVE Emily! So knowledgeable, so fun, and really good at getting her input/words in with Rhett and Link, which can be tough for guests sometimes.

[@beitermf]

also I just bought her book. I have to read it.

[@AJroyer2]

Said it before, I will say it again. Thank you for being so loving. I respect you both so much for empowering every individual. You present your perspective without discounting any others' experiences.

[@imarowbot11]

I really love they both open up 100% can be a little funny at times... But mostly feels like opening up with best friends

[@sezztooley]

I remember listening to this series last year and being extremely uncomfortable because of also being raised in a culture saturated with christian purity culture. but hearing it still helped me overcome a lot of that trauma. this year, it's so much easier to hear about and I love that experts are here to teach us more!

[@the_powersl0th]

The part about asexuality was great!! Emily cleared up so many common misconceptions and as someone in the lgbtqia+ community, I really appreciated that

[@aquamarinerose5405]

What's interesting about the blue-balls discussion at the start is that I had looked this up a while ago, and learned a fair bit. The Physical Discomfort is an actual 'condition' called Epididymal Hypertension, and it has to do with bloodflow to the area. As mentioned by Emily it's not dangerous in the slightest. I find it interesting because of the weird space it lives in that the symptoms are totally real, but the issue of people using it as an excuse to be a creep is also real.

[@laurahead3771]

What a fabulous, open conversation! Super grateful to hear from such an expert

[@MarieDomander]

I've watched this 4 times but fell asleep 5-7 minutes in as usual. Thank you for helping me fall asleep. Love the videos and the topics, they are interesting. They are great! But also amazing to get you relaxed before bed. Love you guys voices, so soothing.

[@akrkwood]

As a marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with couples I really appreciate this episode. It also reminds me that I need to get around to reading the book! And quit putting the "pro" in procrastination.

[@Mythicalbeast_KatieWilson]

I will definitely be checking out her podcast & I'm also excited for her book for people in long term relationships! Thanks for sharing and being so open during the conversation! I'm proud roud to be a mythical beast! Love u guys!

LOVE the voting push, perfect tie in with the program and it's really not that hard. Thanks for taking the initiative on it and helping folks get there. :)

[@suomynonaanonymous]

I am asexual and it was great to hear her talk about it briefly.

[@insightbytes2136]

I'm same age as u guys and also in a very happy 23yr marriage... And it's only getting better! We are amazed... With the kids getting more and more out on their own... Having your house alone....is amazing!!!! We call it our exercise. U young ones.... explore your bodies girls!

[@linasketch9625]

Rhett, I cannot express how happy i got about you asking Dr. Emily to explain how this conversation applied to asexual people, I am demisexual and was seriously trying to extrapolate things that somehow could apply for me, and during the conversation I was really thinking about how much I'd love to talk with the doctor about her understanding about the ace community. So the fact that you brought this to the conversation is greatly appreciated

[@moggieo7313]

Great episode...is it just me or is Rhett's mic always about 3 decibels lower than Links and their guests lately? Drives me nuts 🤪 I can't hear you Rhett!!!

[@AllAboutTheFoo]

Bought the book and workbook immediately upon finishing this pod. Also watched this again with my partner. I love the scientific approach to body positivity etc. Thanks Emily

[@Mindy14]

Thank you for covering asexuality! I am asexual, have been married for 21 years and have 2 children.

[@Shelbsalexis]

Can I ask how your spouse copes with that? Are they supportive or sexually frustrated? I’m in a group where I see A LOT of spouses saying they can’t handle their frustrations regarding their asexual partner. I hope that’s not the case for you! With me being a HL woman, I’m genuinely just curious.

The glasses are only going to make a difference IF your migraines are caused by the blue light coming from screens, like your phone. Otherwise they won't do anything.

I remember reading something as well about the smell and being attracted to people with opposite immunities to cut down on offspring inheritin severe allergies/allergic reactions to things if only 1 parent is allergic to them vs both.
