The Five As of Erotic First Aid : What To Do When Good Things Go Wrong

As Chris recovers from a recent sex injury, we share the five steps of offering Erotic First Aid. From broken bed frames to thrusting gone askew, we share stories of sex injuries and accidents and offer a reliable framework for responding with care, getting the help you need, and staying connected.

No matter what kind of sex you are enjoying, sex accidents and sex injuries can happen in any moment – often when we are deep in pleasure or high on arousal! Accidents happen, and HOW you respond to the moment is crucial. A little preparation can go a long way to create a calmer response in the heat of the moment, so tune in to equip yourself with our five-step framework for providing your lover (or yourself!) with Erotic First Aid.

The 5 A’s of Erotic First Aid are:

  • Awareness
  • Assessment
  • Action
  • Aftercare
  • Accountability

Praise can feel like loving strokes that go right to our soul’s sweet spots, giving us the affirmation, acceptance and encouragement that so many of us crave – but can also cause embarrassment, discomfort or even humiliation! Some people love being praised for their physical appearance, and others find this distracting. In this podcast episode, we explore erotic praise, praise kink and the full range of emotions that receiving praise can evoke. Get to know your specific relationship with praise, discover if you might have a praise kink, and learn how to praise your partner just how they like it, all in this free episode of Speaking of Sex with The Pleasure Mechanics!
