In her new book "Come Together," Emily Nagoski provides a refreshingly pleasure-positive roadmap for sustaining long-term sexual intimacy. She advocates removing cultural stigmas around sexuality, openly communicating desires, prioritizing sex as a spiritual practice of connection, and exploring ethical non-monogamy if desired. Countering the notion that sex is a biological need, Nagoski frames it as a journey of vulnerability, presence and continually re-defining mutual pleasure with your partner.
