Men and Sex: Unlocking Power, Pleasure, and Purpose. ⚔️

What happens when a man finally stops carrying his fears alone?In this episode, I’m joined by Alex Gere — the very first guest ever on the Men & Sex podcast — returning after nearly two years to share the profound transformation that unfolded when he made his relationship with intimacy a priority.When Alex first came on the show, he was struggling deeply.He felt broken.He was facing performance anxiety, fear, overthinking, and the belief that something was wrong with him.He had no idea where to turn.He shares how, at that time, he searched everywhere for support — only to find almost exclusively female coaches and therapists — until he typed “men and sex” into Google… and found this work.Since then, Alex has walked a powerful path:from silence and isolationto open conversationto now becoming a certified Sacred Sex Coach in the UK, trained under Cam Fraser.In this conversation we explore:🗣️ Why talking about sex is one of the fastest paths to confidence💔 How many men secretly feel broken and completely alone⚡ The hidden charge of anxiety and overthinking around intimacy🧭 What it took for Alex to face his fears instead of avoiding them🔥 Why making your fears a priority is a turning point🧠 How speaking the stories we hide dismantles shame and pressure🌱 The common beliefs so many men carry — and how they lose power when spokenThe heart of this episode is simple and radical:The stories you’re most afraid to talk aboutare often the doorway to your greatest confidence.If you’ve ever felt alone in your struggles,if you’ve ever believed something was wrong with you,if you’ve ever felt trapped in your own head —this conversation is for you.🎧 Listen now to Episode 68.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, grounded confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, leadership, and the path of becoming a truly well-rounded man — together.Inside you’ll get:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & emotional clarity• Practices for becoming stronger in and out of the bedroom• A supportive circle of men walking the same path👉 Men Risinghttps://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

Who decided how we should and shouldn’t experience sex?And why do most of the teachings we inherit focus almost entirely on what not to do —with so little clarity about what a healthy, life-giving relationship to sex actually looks like?In this episode, I’m joined once again by Dr. Kevin Jenson — biblical scholar, theologian, and author of Sacred Not Sinful — for one of the most important conversations we’ve had on the show.We explore:📖 How religious teachings around sex became rooted in restriction instead of guidance🎯 Why humans need a clear target for what healthy sex is — not just rules about avoidance🔤 The 26 different words translated into “sin” in the Bible and what they actually mean🧬 How mistranslation has shaped generations of guilt, fear, and confusion🤝 Moving from a consumptive relationship with sex into a creative, collaborative one✨ Why every intimate connection between two people is a unique act of creation🌍 How sex becomes one of the most powerful ways humans experience unity instead of separationKevin brings together deep scholarship, cultural insight, and lived experience to offer a radically different lens on intimacy — one that feels grounded, intelligent, and freeing.This conversation doesn’t tell you what to fear.It invites you to explore what you’re actually moving toward.If you’ve ever felt torn between desire and belief, between curiosity and conditioning —this episode offers a new framework for understanding both.🎧 Listen now to Episode 67.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, grounded confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, leadership, and the path of becoming a truly well-rounded man — together.Inside you’ll get:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & emotional clarity• Practices for becoming stronger in and out of the bedroom• A supportive circle of men walking the same path👉 Men Risinghttps://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

What happens when a young boy grows up split between desire and fear—between what his body feels and what his culture tells him is dangerous?In this episode of the global anonymous series, I interview a man from Turkey who grew up immersed in Islamic culture and social pressure, carrying a deep internal conflict around intimacy, identity, and belonging.From an early age, desire felt risky. Fear of punishment, fear of hell, fear of being seen as “bad” lived right alongside curiosity and longing.He shares openly about:🇹🇷 Growing up in Turkey under intense cultural and religious pressure⚖️ Living split between desire and fear — wanting closeness while fearing consequences😨 A first exposure to explicit content that was frightening and left a lasting imprint🧠 The long-term nervous system impact of early exposure without guidance🗣️ Learning about self-touch from peers instead of trusted adults🏫 Watching classmates pay for experiences in high school — and feeling torn between values and belonging🚫 Growing up where homosexuality was heavily stigmatized💔 Seeing women treated poorly and carrying guilt simply for being male🎭 The pressure to perform, prove manhood, and not fall behindThis episode is raw, complex, and deeply human.It shows how culture, religion, peer dynamics, and silence shape a man’s inner world—and how many men grow up feeling ashamed of their desires before they ever understand them.This global series exists to widen our perspective.To remind us that while cultures differ, the struggles, confusion, and longing for connection are often the same.These conversations are rare.They are needed.And they help us see ourselves—and each other—more clearly.🎧 Listen now to this powerful, eye-opening episode.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, grounded confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, leadership, and the path of becoming a truly well-rounded man — together.Inside you’ll get:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & emotional clarity• Practices for becoming stronger in and out of the bedroom• A supportive circle of men walking the same pathJoin us here:👉 Men Rising — https://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

Touch is one of the most essential human needs —and yet most men are profoundly touch deprived.In this episode, I sit down with Kenneth Darby, who has spent over 20 years exploring the world of touch, embodiment, and nervous system health through tantric-style bodywork and somatic practice.What unfolds is one of the most honest conversations I’ve had about what men are actually carrying around touch.We explore:🤲 Why men are so deeply starved for touch🚫 The fear of platonic touch between men & the fear of being perceived as homosexual💔 How only receiving touch from a partner creates pressure & extractive energy🔄 Why this dynamic often closes the very connection we’re craving🧭 How difficult it is for men to answer the question: “What do I want to receive?”🧠 Desexualizing touch & separating it from performance and outcome🫶 Why most men were never taught how to touch their own bodies in healthy ways📉 How hidden habits formed in isolation impact the nervous system & long-term desire🌿 What it means to give back to the body through nourishing, non-extractive touch🔍 The subtle ways we manipulate touch to get something instead of truly givingI also share a deeply personal moment of realizing that when I was touching my partner’s back, I wasn’t actually touching her for her —I was touching her because I wanted something in return.That insight alone changed how I relate to touch forever.We are mammals.Touch is wired into our biology.And when it’s missing, the nervous system suffers — quietly, deeply, and over time.This episode offers language, clarity, and practices that every man needs to understand if he wants healthier intimacy, more grounded presence, and a more regulated nervous system.🎧 If you’ve ever felt lonely, tense, disconnected, or unsure how to receive — this conversation is for you.Want to Go Deeper?If this episode stirred something in you and you’re ready to build a healthier, more nourishing relationship with your body, desire, and nervous system, I highly recommend starting with The Masturbation Manual.It’s a practical, grounded guide for men to:• Relearn how to touch their own bodies in ways that support long-term vitality• Shift from extractive, compulsive habits into conscious, nourishing self-connection• Build a foundation for stronger presence, confidence, and intimacy• Develop practices that regulate the nervous system and expand pleasure capacityThis is where many men begin their deeper work.👉 Get The Masturbation Manual here:https://www.eanwood.com/manual

What happens when a boy’s brain is shaped by years of dopamine-spiking stimulation before he ever experiences intimacy in real life?In this episode of the global anonymous series, I interview a man from Aruba, raised in a blend of Latino culture, Catholic/Protestant/Christian influence, and a family environment where exposure to adult content began far too young.He shared openly about:🇦🇼 Growing up in Aruba and the cultural pressure to “be the man”📱 The combination of porn + video games and its impact on the dopamine system🧠 Spending more than a decade exposed to high-intensity pleasure before any real connection👀 Family members and peers normalizing explicit content long before he understood it🗣️ Not receiving “the talk” until years after he’d already been shaped by what he saw online👦 Learning through peers, older siblings, experimentation, and confusion🔥 The machismo influence — where your worth is measured by how many girls you can get🔄 The journey of breaking addiction by moving TOWARD something meaningful, instead of just away from the behaviorHis story mirrors what so many men around the world experience:Years of early exposure, zero real education, and a culture that rewards conquest instead of connection.This episode is another raw, honest look into how environment, religion, and culture shape a man’s internal world long before he ever steps into adulthood — and how healing begins with awareness.🎧 Listen to this moving, eye-opening episode now.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, grounded confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, leadership, and the path of becoming a truly well-rounded man — together.Inside you’ll get:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & emotional clarity• Practices for becoming stronger in and out of the bedroom• A supportive circle of men walking the same pathJoin us here:👉 Men Rising — https://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

What happens when you grow up in a country where erotic imagery is everywhere…but real conversations about intimacy don’t exist?In this episode, I interview a man from the Netherlands who grew up with soft-core adult content on TV after 10pm, field trips to Amsterdam’s Red Light District, and a culture where sexuality was visible — but never explained.Despite being surrounded by openness, he still faced the same challenges so many men around the world face:no mentorship, no emotional context, and no one teaching him how to navigate desire, connection, or relationships.Raised Catholic, with a Turkish father who believed that “becoming a man” meant sleeping with a woman, his first intimate experience was being taken to a brothel in Ecuador — an experience that shaped his inner world for years.This conversation explores:🇳🇱 The paradox of growing up in a sexually open culture with no real guidance👀 How early exposure without context affects a boy’s development🏠 Cultural and religious messages from family and faith traditions🧠 Why young men chase conquest to feel belonging and approval🔥 The hypnotic pull of arousal when no one teaches us how to relate to it❤️ His longing for genuine partnership despite confusing early experiencesThis episode is part of the global anonymous series where I interview men from different countries to reveal the shared patterns we all face — and the cultural differences that shape us.Once again, we see the same story reflected:Men all over the world grow up with desire in front of them… but without the education, mentorship, or emotional support to understand any of it.🎧 Listen to this eye-opening conversation now.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, grounded confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, leadership, and the path of becoming a truly well-rounded man — together.Inside you’ll get:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & emotional clarity• Practices for becoming stronger in and out of the bedroom• A supportive circle of men walking the same pathJoin us here:👉 Men Rising — https://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

A conversation with a man raised in the Sikh traditionMost men grow up navigating desire, shame, confusion, and curiosity in total silence.And the silence changes depending on where in the world you come from.In this powerful anonymous episode, I interview a man from Chandigarh, India, raised in a Sikh household, now living in Australia. He shares what it was like to grow up in a culture where conversations about intimacy were rare, where guidance was minimal, and where the collision between tradition and modern digital life is creating new challenges for men today.We explore:🌏 What it felt like to go through adolescence without guidance📿 How religion and cultural expectations shaped his early beliefs📱 The impact of social media and modern temptation on relationships💔 The rising rates of divorce and infidelity in India — and why they’re happening🧘 What ancient yogic teachings can offer men today🧩 How moving to Australia at 19 shifted everythingThis global series exists because men across the world rarely speak openly about their inner experiences — yet the patterns, pressures, and struggles are often the same. When men share honestly, we see the common threads that unite us all.This episode will expand your perspective on how culture shapes desire, what men carry silently, and how we can begin healing through honest conversation.🎧 Listen now to this eye-opening conversation.Join the Men Rising CommunityIf you’re a man committed to growth, confidence, deeper connection, and reclaiming your personal power, this is where the real work happens.Men Rising is my private community where we explore embodiment, desire, nervous system training, intimacy, and the path of becoming a well-rounded man — together.You’ll get access to:• Monthly trainings & live calls• Tools for grounding, presence & clarity• Practices to strengthen your relationship with yourself and others• A supportive community of men on the same pathJoin us here:👉 Men Rising — https://www.skool.com/men-rising-9396/about?ref=99480d2439ae4e32925e4ba5be99f875

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Betty Martin, author of The Art of Receiving and Giving and creator of The Wheel of Consent — one of the most influential frameworks in the world of intimacy, boundaries, and embodied communication.The Wheel of Consent breaks human interaction into four quadrants — Taking, Serving, Accepting, and Allowing — and reveals the hidden dynamics underneath every moment of touch.And for men… this conversation is vital.We explore why so many men are touch-starved, cut off from healthy platonic touch, shamed out of softness, and pressured to only receive physical connection from sexual partners. This cultural conditioning leaves men isolated, dysregulated, and confused about what they actually want — and how to ask for it.Dr. Betty and I dive into:The problem of platonic touch between men made “wrong” in North AmericaThe pressure men put on romantic partners to meet all touch needsThe four quadrants of The Wheel of Consent — and the unique challenges men face in eachHow practicing “Taking” consciously can transform your confidenceThe life-changing power of speaking your desires clearly, out loudI share my own experiences practicing the Wheel — in romantic relationships and in safe, platonic containers — and how profoundly it’s reshaped the way I touch, communicate, receive, and understand the energy behind my desires.If you want healthier boundaries, better sex, deeper intimacy, clearer communication, and more ease in your body… this is a must-listen.The Wheel of Consent can change your life if you let it.Tune in, take notes, and start practicing. ✨Join the Men Rising Community:Step into real conversations about sex, power, and embodiment with other men doing the work.👉 ⁠Men RisingMore from Betty:https://www.wheelofconsent.coach/betty-martin/
