Ladies, it’s high time we dive deeper into conversations about sex.
More specifically, we need to address the lack of honest discussions we have about our sexual experiences with our friends. It’s not just the light-hearted comments about sex being a chore or the old stereotype that men are always ready while women lag behind. Sure, we’ve all participated in those Moms’ Night Out gatherings where we vent about our partners’ libidos or how sheer exhaustion seems to drain every ounce of desire from us.
We’ve all had those moments when we feel too fatigued for intimacy, or those days when we don’t feel attractive at all, clad in yoga pants that have seen better days and hair that could probably stand on its own. And yes, with little ones sharing our beds, finding time for romance can feel nearly impossible. But let’s be real, ladies—we are still having sex! It might not occur as frequently as we wish, nor does it mirror the passionate escapades of our dating days, but it’s happening.
And guess what? Despite being perpetually worn out from parenting, I’ve had some truly incredible sexual experiences since becoming a mom. Yet, it seems we shy away from discussing these moments with our friends. Why is it that we can recount every embarrassing detail about childbirth but hesitate to share the exhilarating climax we experienced after our toddler finally settled down for the night?
Time for Change
It’s time to change that. We ought to discuss sex openly and honestly. Women carry a host of private experiences that often leave us feeling inadequate or embarrassed, especially in the bedroom. We lean on our best friends for support when motherhood feels overwhelming or when we face personal hygiene dilemmas. Wouldn’t it be liberating to hear about different sexual positions or scenarios that might help normalize our own experiences?
According to clinical sexologist Tara Jensen, “When we openly discuss sex, we’re normalizing pleasure and our bodies.” Jensen points out that many women feel broken when sex doesn’t go as expected. But sharing our stories—both the pleasurable and painful—can lead to learning and growth.
Embracing Open Conversations
Let’s embrace these topics. Let’s chatter about how to give a great oral experience, whether we’re down for swallowing or prefer to steer clear. By discussing our own experiences, we can empower one another to explore new territories of pleasure. Who knows? Your friend might have a technique that could completely transform your intimate moments.
Research shows that many women enjoy anal sex, so chances are, you’re not alone if that’s your vibe. Imagine the camaraderie that could blossom if we knew other women related to our experiences. There are certain topics that only women can fully understand, from the challenges of intimacy while breastfeeding to the discomfort of period bloating. Our girlfriends have been through it all, and they are the perfect support system.
Engaging Conversations
So the next time you find yourself with your girlfriends, don’t shy away from discussing sex. You might be surprised at how engaging and enlightening the conversation can be—after all, our friends often know us best.

Conclusion
In summary, it’s essential for us to break the silence surrounding our sexual experiences. By being open, we empower ourselves and each other, fostering a supportive community where we can discuss all aspects of our lives, including the intimate ones.
