Welcome back to End the Mind of a Man. All right. We're going to get a little bit risque on this one. This one is going to be a little bit more PG-13 slash rated R. Okay, so just be prepared. If you're under the age of, I guess, nowadays, 18 or shit, I don't know, 13. Maybe tune out. I don't know.

But just be aware, we're going to get a little graphic on this one, okay? So this one, here we go. We're going to start it off is what men want in the, the bedroom and beyond. This is things men want from women in a relationship that they rarely ask for. Okay, so number one. And now I have Lori here, by the way, again, and she's going to, you know. Yeah, I wasn't really comfortable being part of this. I know, but he's, she can call me on a lot of things. And I like to have the banter with her because she knows me very well. And I think she can, you know, speak for most women, all women, really. You're lucky I'm in town this.

Okay, so the first one is respect. Men need to feel respected by, you know, what they bring to a relationship. You know, they need to feel needed and appreciated. Whereas women, I think, need their feelings acknowledged and validated in order to feel safe. I don't need actual things. I need validation. I'm going to be honest with you. I need, I've always been this way.

It will change my day. If I wake up in the morning and I see a note next to the moment. and I see a note next to the coffee maker, have a great day. If I get a text halfway through the day, I miss you, I'm thinking about you, or do you want to meet for lunch? That to me will change everything. That is a diamond ring for me. I need the validation. I need that.

What kind of love language is that? What is that? I think it's, there's something about getting a text from your significant other. Words of affirmation. Yeah. Yeah, I need that. Like, I will take that on a post-it note over, over. over anything, over anything.

It will just make my day. It's like, for me, it's like making my bed. Like, it's just something I need. I need to see. Like, I need to see that my partner, my sign name from another is thinking about me. And there's just something about, you know, you going about your day.

And, oh, by the way, she's thinking of me or, you know, he's thinking about me. So to me, that's a big one. Affection. Small gestures. Leaving a note, text messages. If guys, you know, if a guy's not getting these things, he feels emasculated, I think.

Like a simple good morning text. Like, this is what I was getting to. Like, how are you? Good morning? You know, what'd you have for breakfast or maybe a little joke or what do you want to do tonight? Let's have some fun tonight or should we go on vacation? Things like that. You know, it goes such a long way. I don't know if most guys are like this, but I am. I think you're like that in friendships and even work relationships too. Like you, you're always that client that will say good morning. Most don't. Most will be like, hey, I'm posting this a 12. Do you know what I mean? But you, I don't know. I just think it's rude. I think it's rude, especially

of people you work with, especially of people that you've been friends with for over many, many years, I don't think you should just shoot off the saying what you need. And I think you've called me on that. I'm not your... No, you're, you're really, you've always been good like that. And you'll always say, like, how is your vacation or how are your kids doing? Yeah, well, you should engage in other people. You should care what other people are doing, especially if they're your friends. Right. So that's the difference. I guess we're, yeah, we're close friends. Yeah, I think. Anyway, so, supporting his goals. You know, you got his back, you support him, you understand him.

Men need to feel understood. It's very, very important. So I think that you should definitely know your man or your woman's, we're going to do both, right, men and women, right? I think you should know their goals ahead of time. And I think you should support him. And, you know, when girls don't, I think that's just a huge red flag. And I think you get to know a man or a woman in the beginning before you start

the relationships. You know their goals. You know what they want to do. If a guy wants to start a lemonade stand, fucking support them. If he wants to, you know, grow Christmas trees, support them, you know. And if you don't like that, then you should have gotten that out of the way before you started dating. You can't all of a sudden because it doesn't align with what you want. You can't just be like, well, this doesn't align with what I want.

So I'm going to bounce out of this relationship. Or I'm just going to neglect my man. You should be proud of him. You're a team at the end of the day. You're a team. Right. And it's almost like, you know, you're on a reality show. We'll use you an example.

You know, you would have never been able to be with a woman that didn't understand and support that part of your life. Right. Because it's such a huge part of your life. Right. And when I was dating, I made it very clear. This is what I do for a living. I'm just letting you know, I'm going to say it first. For instance, if a guy wants to grow Christmas trees and it might not align with what you want.

But you know what I'm going to do? I was like, you know what? I don't really understand. Christmas trees, and I don't understand any of it, but you know what? I love him. How is growing Christmas trees come to your mind? Because I'm thinking of something so random, okay? Like, I want to start a yarn business. Yarn. Okay. Yarn and Christmas trees. Okay, whatever. You know, I may not like it or understand it, but you know what? I love this person and I'm going to, I'm going to dive in. I'm going to figure out everything I need to know about it, and I'm going to embrace it. You know, I'm sure there was things that people that are billionaires now off of stupid inventions that women were like, this is,

not going to fucking work. And now they're living in mansions on yachts and stuff because you know what. Look at Mark Zuckerberg, right? Like he's been with his, I think, high school sweetheart forever. And he was probably in his dorm working all hours of the night building something. And same thing. Right. Like she was probably like, God, he won't come for dinner with me. He's just stuck in that room. Right. But you know what these. But these women saw what they were doing. They saw their men just absolutely dove into these things. Now, I mean, what could be worse? It's better than him going out to the bars with his buddies drinking.

And it's also very attractive. It's attractive to see your partner passionate about something. I think so. I think so. And I just think being on the same page is just super important. And this is something that you should get out of the way on a date, you know? So I don't know. So independence.

Men value their own alone time, independent sports, gym, guy time. That's when they like regulate themselves. Okay. So for me, I need to go to the gym seven days a week. That is a necessity. That is a no, it's a deal breaker. Like I have to go to the gym. I don't care what I have going on throughout the day.

The gym is a priority. So we need to work around it and that's it for me. I need to go to the gym. I like cars. I like to spend time in the garage. I like to, these are things that I need that make me feel good. And it's not taking away from my relationship. But, you know, you spend a lot of time to get, especially nowadays, right?

Because now everybody's working from home, right? What's that mean? That means you're both of your partners are working from home, whether you're working in two different bedrooms, you still come out to the kitchen for lunch, right? So you're still in the same household. And more often than not, I know this goes for me, we have the same friends, right? I have the same group of friends. So we live together, we work together, we sleep together. That is a lot for any couple.

There may be a few couples out there that be like, oh my God, I love it or whatever. But most of these couples are going to be like, I need some fucking alone time. I'm going off with the girls to a weekend in Cabo. I'm going to get my nails done. I'm going to the spa. I'm going for a walk or a hike. That is extremely important. And this goes for both sexes, in my opinion.

Yeah, I think that's why during COVID, the divorce rate, you know, skyrocketed because if you don't get a chance to do your own thing and have that independence, you know, like I have so many friends, husbands and, you know, that play sports. They go to play hockey multiple, you know, times a week. They need that. Yeah, they do. Definitely. What would you rather? Your significant other going to the strip club, going to the bar, going to drink? If he's got a weird hobby or he's got something again that doesn't align with you,

so fucking what? Let him do it, you know? Because he's going to come home and he's going to be angry if he doesn't, you know, allowed to let off his steam, just like women. They need to go out with their girls. They need to gossip. They need to go to the spa. They need to go on vacations.

They need to go on shopping sprees. This is your therapy. Okay. And then you can come home and you regroup and then you can like talk about your day. but like COVID was the perfect example of man like spending this time with my significant other is he's going to kill me. But I even think like once kids come into the picture, that's where I feel like husbands and wives could start arguing over things like that. Like again, you're going to play golf or you're going to the gym again.

Like you need to watch the child. I want to do this. But I think that it's that balance that's so. important in a marriage, you know, for it to be sustainable where you respect each other's time, like independent times that they're able to have that for themselves. Yeah, that's a tough one. And it's hard, the more kids you have. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Especially when kids getting involved, you're kind of like, okay, can I stop being the show for a five minutes and go have a me day? You know, like it's important. It's important. Are you going to lose your mind? Like people that have four kids, I just like my, like my, well, I don't know if he's

my friend. anymore. Danny and Nea. I, and they have twins. You know, I obviously, I have twins too. And they're all under the age of three? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know how.

I mean, after my twins, I was never having another child again. Yeah. But for them to have, well, they have their first son, right? They had a son first and then the twins, but to have another one. I literally, I wrote them both. I was like, you guys are superhuman. You are. I don't know how you find the time.

Like where like I'm just in my head, you know, because I'm frugal with money. What is your diaper bill? What is your formula bill? Like what is she constantly pumping? Like what is going on? Like how? Hopefully she gets a good, you know, campaign with huggies or pamphers or something. Yeah, that would be nice, right?

Another big one is playfulness in your partner. What do you think about this, Lori? Playfulness in your partner. Well, yesterday when you, you know, Jacks was going through this podcast with me and he he was asking my opinion, you actually said that you didn't think that you're a playful person. And I disagreed with that completely. What do you mean? What is what is playful to you?

What does that word mean to you? Just somebody that doesn't take themselves so seriously and that is just fun to be around. And I don't know if actually I'm trying to think like people that watch you on the show. I mean, I don't think they know that side of you. you are literally one of the funniest people. And I was even talking about this with Schwartz. I think last night he also agreed. You are one of the funniest people I know.

Top three hands down. When I'm on one, I'm pretty good. I'm pretty funny. Yeah. Listen, when Jack's is grumpy, I mean, he's grumpy and he lets everybody know how he's feeling. And I've been very grumpy the last year. And I don't think I've been as playful and as funny as I've been normally the last year, obviously, because of what I'm going through. You still have your moments.

And I think people that have watched Vanderpump, you're so known for your iconic phrases and lines. But the thing is, you're funny without you knowing that you're funny. I just say things and I'm like, was that appropriate? Is that, should I have said that? I don't even think you think that way. But even the most, you know, that moment where you looked at Zandoval. No, well, the me too, that's something else. But when you said, I'm the number one guy in the group, you were dead serious.

You didn't say that. Like, you're not that person that's trying. to be funny or to do a little bit. Yeah, I don't know how to be funny. I just say things. But I mean, there, Ryan and I talk about this all the time. Like, we, we said the other day, we have to make a book. Like, one of those Shutterfly books or something.

Jacks is with your, right, like, with your quotes because there's just, I mean, on the show, you've probably have, like, what, five or six really iconic lines. But in your day-to-day life, I mean, I hear this. There's, like, five a day. Like you would not believe some of the things that he said. And they're hilarious. And I'm dead serious. You'll crack up laughing and you're like, and I'll be like, why are you laughing?

And I think me not having a filter. And obviously I say things that sometimes I don't even know what the hell I'm saying. And I'm like, oh my God, did I offend somebody? Did I say this? Is this wrong or right or whatever? And people would look at me like, are you kidding? Like that was this or that was that? I'm like, I'm not trying to be funny.

That's just what's in my head. I don't know. Oh, my God. I wish I was able to think of something on the spot, but just, just in general, you know, the things that you go on and on and on about, right? Like, you're orchid in your house. I mean, is this the right place? I don't know.

People don't know you this way, but you just, you know, you fixate on things, but he's funny. It's almost like a Larry David character in a way. Yeah. Are you Larry David? I could be. I think I also, I also thrive on structure. Structure, structure, structure. If that is thrown off, I can't even tell you.

I don't know where I got this from. I just everything has to like I need a routine. If I don't have a routine. And you also like your notebook, you need to take notes. You need to write everything down. You have like a calendar. Yeah. calendars, notes, post-its, highlighters.

I write down everything I do. I get up in the morning. I make my bed, brush my teeth, go have breakfast, check my emails, go to the gym, pick up cruise, take cruise school. And you're a creature of habit. You will eat the same breakfast every day. Every single day. Yeah.

And the same. If it's not broken, don't fix it. You know, but the problem is, too, is, you know, I feel like there's two versions of me. There's a grumpy me. Yeah, that's what I said. And, you know, and you can tell when I'm not in a good mood, and it's just, it's awful. I don't know, I'm in a bad mood. It's just not, it's not good.

Yeah, if you're in a bad mood, everybody around you, it feels that. And I got to say, I got to say something here, ever since I've gotten out of therapy, I've got out of my place. and I found out what was wrong with me. I got diagnosed with bipolar 2, and they finally put me on medication after 45 years, 45 years. And I always knew something was wrong, but again, I'm a guy. I don't go to the doctor unless I'm dying.

I always knew something was wrong. But then when they put me on the medication, I can't tell you, I wanted to cry. Because finally, I let things roll off my back. I am not in bad moods anymore. Do I get a bad mood here and there? Of course, everybody does. But I'm just so much happier.

I let things roll off my back. I feel like I'm a lot nicer of a person. Well, you know what I noticed, the biggest thing for me? Because I'm not in town often. So, you know, I'm not, I'm not seeing Jack's day to day. But when I do and we're in the car together, your road rage is better. Yeah. It's hard.

It's still there a little bit. It's hard to have good road rage. But it's not what it was. So definitely better road rage. Yeah, because I'll scream it. I'll scream it. You'll honk that. that horn and scream out your window.

I'm like, we're on the streets of L.A. You made a comment about how I, I break out my face spray. Oh. I'm a big fan of, well, these are the funny things that, again, it's like a Larry David situation. We will be in the middle of a meeting. Yeah.

With other people and or he'll have a photo shoot being done. And he's just mid-conversation, busts out his, his, what is it? Mario Barusco or something. He, Jack's constantly spray. his face and I know people say online they always say why is he so sweaty and it's not sweat

he likes his face toner spray Mario brusco that he sprays all day long and when I asked him I'm like why are you doing that like we're in the middle of like a serious meeting right now and he's like I like my skin Dewey

I do so that it's funny you know like we die laughing like okay Jack's you know doy skin oh I got I just said the word that I just spot I said the word moist. Gross. But I, by the way, I keep a bottle of toner next to my bed. I keep one in my glove box.

I keep one on the couch. I keep one in the fridge. What was that word that used to get angry at me every time I said? And now it's all that you say? Oh my God. At the end of the day. At the end of the day. I hate it when people say thrive.

I hate it when people say at the end of the day. Like enough at the end of the day. Because it was used like literally in every sentence. And I was like, and I would start using it. angry. You would hang up the phone. I mean, yeah. The, well, now he says it all the time. And I call him out on it. Okay. So the next one is feeling desired or wanted. I just think feeling desired is a very, very important thing. I think feeling wanted is an important thing. Because then you just started getting into, you might as well just be roommates. If you don't, you know, feel that, then you're not, you know, what's the point? Right. You got to work at it. You got to, you know, that's what you want. You want to feel. yeah, you want to feel wanted.

And this last one here is a huge one, huge, huge, huge, huge, clear communication. I can't stress that enough. And I've suffered from this clear communicating about why. I think maybe my ADD has something to do with it, but I'm always, I have a hard time listening. I'm always looking to jump to what I need to say instead of just retaining the information and listening to, you know. Well, you have a lot of difficulty with communication. and all across the board, I would say. And I think anybody watching the show can attest to that, obviously, right?

But I do think since I always say to Jacks, there's the Jacks before the facility and the Jacks after the facility. And I also see a huge difference in your communication now. I think I'm listening more. Yeah. I think I'm actually retaining the information as opposed to jumping down someone's throat and trying to tell you what I think. Or being defensive and just, you know, if it's not something, that you want to hear. And this, again, I could only speak in terms of work and business with Ryan and I. Like, if you didn't like what we have to say, you didn't want to hear it. Yeah. And,

you know, tantrum a little bit. My way of the highway. Right. But now I think there's just, there's a calmness there. And I realize, like, you don't have to be angry if you disagree with somebody. I mean, you can be like, okay, I see what you're saying, but I don't like that. Instead of going off and being angry and yelling and screaming, which doesn't really... But these were the tools that you also worked on at the facility. Yeah. Listening was a huge one. And when we talked about my...

Like I said, I went to therapy for seven hours a day. And we would just dissect, dissect, dissect, and dig, dig, dig, and get to the root of my issues. You know, a big part of my seven hours of therapy for the 30 days I was there was communication. I don't know how to communicate very well. And I'm learning. At 45 years old, I'm like relearning.

a lot of things, but, you know, at least, at least it's coming, you know. But I do, I do agree with that. I think the downfall of many relationships in general, relationships and marriages come down to either different communication styles or not being able to communicate effectively. Right. And I think that starts, I think it starts out okay. And I think years, if you're in the relationship for a period of time, I think the communications tends to dissolve. I think that everybody has a different level of emotional

intelligence. And I think if you have one partner that's on the higher end of the spectrum in terms of their emotional intelligence, and then you have another one that's way lower and that balances off, then it's not going to work. I think women expect to do therapy. Yes. To learn to communicate more effectively. I think men are very simple. I think men are simple creatures. We just want to keep our women happy. Some do, some don't. But I think women expect a lot. I think I agree with that. I think men are very black and white. Whereas women need to talk about the gray area. They need that in order to feel connected with their partner and to feel that they're heard or validated, right? Whereas a man, it's like, it's black or white.

Just give me the answer. Yeah. I don't. What's this gray area? Women need the gray. We need the gray explain to us. I can't explain it. It is what it is.

You have to learn how to explain the gray. That's another word that I use all the time. It is what it is. But I guess I need to learn that part. Like why, for instance, why I do certain things? Why did I choose to take the route that I did? Why did I say what I said? I just don't, I think it's uncomfortable.

It's uncomfortable. Like, I don't want to sit and talk about it. But you have to be uncomfortable. But that's what I'm saying. I think it's so important to learn how to sit in that discomfort. Yeah. That's the hardest thing. But I think once you're able to get past that and sit through it and talk through it,

then it's kind of like you're pinpointing the elephant in the room, what's bothering you, and you're on the other side. And I got to say going into, you know, I was not having it the first few days. I was like, I don't need to be here. And someone had to talk to me. Or like, you're here. You're here. You're here. whether you like it or not.

Just use this place like it's using you. Get what you're getting out of this. You're paying money to be here. You might as well get something out of this. And then I literally, a girl came to me in the kitchen. I was making a sandwich. And she said,

you seem a little standoffish. And you chose to be there. Right. It's not like you were placed there. There was no that you could have walked out at any moment. Right. So even though you did have your moments. But I wasn't going to fail.

I wasn't going to quit. Right. But you still continued with it. Yeah. That's been. And it's just like, I just felt very vulnerable there. I felt very.

scared. I'm with a bunch of people that I don't know. And then now you want me to break down and tell you the root of my issues on why I do what I do. And I don't know these people. I just met you. And I'm sleeping in the same house with you people. And I'm supposed to cry and be emotional and break down. Like. And especially you, you know, being a public figure. And I think, and I've seen this with so many clients in general when you're in this industry and you're as quote unquote celebrity. It's so difficult to know who you can trust. Oh my God. I've been burned. Yeah. And you've been burned. Yeah. And you've been. been burned a lot. So many times. A lot of things that you haven't, you know, shared publicly, but it's hard for you to trust. I think you trust very few people. Of course, because you've burned, been burned like I do. I've had therapists burn me. I've had friends burn me. And when you've been burned so many times, and first of all, I was totally against therapy, totally against it for this reason. And then I got screwed over by a therapist right out the gate who was talking about my personal life in a bar. I've been, you know, and then it's so hard to find a therapist. I had one that

had to move. I had one that had her own problems. And it's hard to unpack with a new therapist every single time because it's so difficult to relive and speak about it all that takes so much like mental energy. And then you get and like you do all this, you tell them your life and it's exhausting, right? And then you're like, okay, this is not going to work or, you know, it's really, really tough. And I talk to a lot of people. They're like, it takes some time to find a good therapist.

It takes time. And it really, really, really does. It's, it does. Okay. Now we're going to get into the next topic, which is a little bit risque. but hey, we got to talk about it. What do men consider great sex? Okay, this is, I kind of taking a poll here.

I think men consider great sex. I think that when women are very into it, you know, enthusiastic, I think that kind of goes without saying. I think communication. You know, men want to hear how good it feels, you know, give a little direction, take some initiative, but also let him dominate because let's be real women. women like to be dominated, right? I mean, I think for the most part, women like to be dominated in the bedroom. Respectfully, of course.

I'm not trying to say be disrespectful, but I feel like if you're both on the same page and it's respectful, I think women like a little, you know, dominance, maybe a little rough, you know. So I think men like it too. Communication. That's obviously a huge one. Great sex, obviously, right? Soft or slower, harder, faster. I think you kind of feel that out after the first time, no pun intended.

I think when you get to know your partner, you know, the third, four, fifth time you guys, you know, have relations. You kind of feel like what they like and what they don't like. So that comes with overtime. I think women that are able to let go, you know, be in the moment, not be in their head. Again, this is kind of, I think, a big one for the younger generation. I think the younger generation, I think they're very into how they look with their clothes off. I think, you know, men and women nowadays. I'm not just singling out women.

I think men and women are very insecure of how they look like because of social media again and what they see and what they, you know, and I think it's a big deal. I think when people get older, I think it's, it becomes less. I think, you know, the maturity levels there. I think at the end of the day. And at the end of the day, number two. But no, actually, that's why I think we've been all over TikTok, and we were late to the game. Right. because we're in our 40s and we're kind of,

you had never had an interest. And I think it was when we were in Canada that we said, let's download you at TikTok. And then you became really into it. And now it's the best thing because he has a Canadian-based TikTok that we registered him for. He's not losing his TikTok. I'm not losing my TikTok guys.

So, you know, I'm a Canadian-based TikToker. Yeah. But we always send each other stuff on, you know, different memes and things on TikTok. and what I saw on TikTok that was super interesting, and I believe it to be true, is that when women are younger and probably men too, right? Like you said, they're more insecure.

Right. But that's why they're saying these women in their 40s and 50s now are almost more sexual than men and have these awakenings because I think they just become so much more comfortable and confident with their bodies. I love that. I love that.

That is so attractive to me. when a woman is just comfortable with her body and just doesn't give an F. It just doesn't care. I think it's a turnoff. I think that's what you meant by saying women that aren't in their head and people to let go. I think it's a turn off a little bit. When a woman's very like timid or in her head, it kind of kills the moment a little bit. You're like, listen, I like you already.

Okay. I like what I see. Hopefully you like what I see. Let's forget about that and let's enjoy why we're here. Does that make sense? Totally. That brings us, I think, to the next question. that someone said about you could read it like people definitely lie uh about orgasms do men lie

about orgasms yes i yes yes they do now i'm not saying how i know this but they do they do i'm shocked by um there's it's not uh it's for different reasons and it's not there's many different reasons why men lie about it he's actually going to have a really amazing sex therapist that he's going to be interviewing. And I want to save it for that. Save it. Because that's such an interesting, write that down. I'm going to write that down. So we're going to get back to that one. Why men, and obviously I want to know why women too, but I think it's more, I think people know women fake orgasms. They do. You know, they just maybe want to make their man feel better. And I don't think, I think some women are just different. I feel like some women can easily are at certain situations,

certain positions. I think it's just different for women as opposed to men. Women automatically think men are just going to be done in five minutes no matter what. But that's not true. That's not true. And I've taken a poll on this. Like there's reasons for it. There's different, whether it's, you know,

whether it maybe he can't or maybe there's just a situation or maybe it's taken a little bit longer than normal or maybe he's over it or tired or whatever. And, you know, you don't want to say it, it can offend a woman. It can offend a woman if a man doesn't reach his climax. I think this is really interesting and that's probably what your female listeners want to hear because like this is news to me. So keep talking.

I'm going to have this talk about this again on this because I want to know, are women really offended if a man doesn't finish? And I don't think they'd be offended, but I think the woman then goes to questioning herself. Like, what did I do to turn him off? That's why we lie about it. I'm really insecure. That's why we lie about it because you don't want to offend the girl. And, yeah, I'll leave it at that because I want to get into this a little bit more with the sex therapist because there's probably, some kind of psychological stuff behind this that she could probably explain better.

And yeah. So anyway. Okay. Statistics show that the average man lasts between three and seven minutes, whereas it takes women around 30 minutes to reach a climax. The trick is to find the rhythm between you and your partner that works, finding that arousal sweet spot. Again, this is a tricky one because, again, every man is different.

Every woman is different. You know, you know as a person, man or woman, what you like. You know what works. It's like when you take a picture. You know what angle works, right? You know, you like a good profile picture or straight on. It's the same thing for sex, in my opinion. You know what works for you.

You know what's going to get you to the end. And I think that is the best way to put it. Three to seven minutes or 30 minutes. I think it's probably different for everybody. I think it's also different on the situation. If you're a new couple and you're on vacation together and you're in a sexy hotel, maybe it's going to last a little longer. If you're on a lunch break and you're meeting your wife, listen, we got five minutes. Let's meet at home for lunch and have a quick eat.

That's a different scenario. Probably age makes a difference too, right? Age definitely makes a difference. I think the relationship makes a difference. If it's new, if it's old, I think if you're, there's so many different scenarios when it comes to length and time. You know, I think people also that go out and partying and drinking, that probably also. That takes a huge toll in men. Okay. So partying and drinking and all that, that takes a huge toll. And, you know, you have to make that decision, you know, if you're going to go home with somebody, how much you are going to, quote unquote, party. If you're out at gathering and you see a guy and you're out until two in the morning at a club and you decide to go back home, odds are it's going to go one way or the other. You're either going to have. sex or you're not because men you know they react differently to substance whatever it is drinking alcohol

drugs whatever it is they react different to it so they're either going to lie so ladies now they now women can understand it's it's not them it's not something it's not them at all it's not it's not it's a lot of pressure on guys to perform after a two a m bender it really really is like if you're drinking a lot if you're at a table and you've been going at it and it's two o'clock and this girl wants to take you home. It's pressure. It is a lot because now you have to turn your brain off from drinking all night to be like, holy shit. I haven't, I haven't been out past 11 p.m. in like 15 years. So I just, I'm just speaking from what my friends say. Okay. These are the questions that are all over TikTok and some wrote in the DMs and I want to get to the bottom of this. Is it a red flag if he won't go down on me? Okay. So I, oh, God. God. Is it a red flag if you won't go down on me? Okay, there's different scenarios for this.

I think some people, some of my buddies, that's not something they would do on the first time. But then again, I know guys who do that right off the bat. You know, it's a, it really varies. It kind of, it's kind of up to, you kind of have to feel it out, no pun intended, in the beginning. You've got to see where this is going. but for the most part I you know my friends and the people that d.m me they told me listen this is something that I I do over time it's not one of those things I do out the gate because I don't think that it's a more that wasn't the question yeah yes this is a girl oh is it a red flag like obviously

okay so over time oh yes yes it's a red flag absolutely sorry it's a red flag uh if they don't do it in general your red flag major red flag I'm answering the question before you even finish yes I'm sorry, I miss understood the question. Huge red flag, but I wouldn't think it's a red flag if it didn't happen the first time. You know, that's kind of a, it varies. It varies. Because some women are like, listen, that's an intimate thing. And I kind of would like to wait a little longer for that.

There's nothing wrong with that. I'm just laughing that I'm sitting here right now. Like, what are the chances that I'm sitting here for this podcast, this topic? Okay. All right. What does it mean if he goes soft during sex and he's not into me? Again, this is where it comes to the parting comes in. The drinking and whatever is you're doing in the evening time, that plays a huge role if he goes soft.

Or maybe the guy has, you know, an erectile dysfunction. And he just so happens, doesn't have a magic pill that we can all get anywhere and everywhere. That happens. Some guys have that. And you know what? By that time, usually a guy knows this by now and he's not going to put himself in a situation where he's going on. if he has that issue, the majority of guys are going to have something on them to take care of that.

I don't think at my age or even in your 30s that a guy is going to be unprepared for something like that. Yeah. And unless you're in a relationship, I don't think that the male would divulge that information. No. And it's embarrassing. And I don't think he's going to put himself in a situation

where he's going to go home with a girl knowing that he won't be able to perform. I don't think so. He would probably just say, no, not tonight or whatever. I can't. And you told me that you could find these pills at gas stations here. You can find them. Because in Canada, I don't think they have them. Again, this is kind of like, this is like a dating app thing. Back in the day, dating apps were frowned upon, right? So where, you know, I guess you just call them, what do you call them? Like, boner pills or whatever you want to call them. I don't know. But like Viagra was kind of the big one. It was the first one. And they made it, you know, very clear that they sent it in the mail and it's discreet and all this. And people were still kind of like, eh. Can you tell the story about what we were tagged in? in the Jackson's bathroom. Okay, so, all right.

Because this goes along with what you're talking about. Okay, but wait, can I get to that in a second? I have a couple more things. Okay. Okay, so, yes, you can buy sex pills anywhere. CVS, gas stations. I mean, honestly, there's not a place you can't buy them nowadays. Again, like I said, it's like the dating apps where they were frowned upon,

you know, quote unquote, boner pills were frowned upon. Now everybody takes them, even for sport now. Yeah. So do guys actually care? how it's kept down there in the, in the, the female region, the lower half of the female region, sorry. Again, this varies. I think the older crowd, I think the people that are my age, like a little something down there. I think the younger generation doesn't like anything down there.

I don't think, I think they're so used to, I grew up in an age where, you know, Playboy magazines, everything, where it was, you had full everything down there. It didn't, it didn't matter, you know. And I think over time as, as men mature, as men get older, they like, it changes. Your taste changes. Okay, next question. Okay, sorry. I just, that's what I think.

This is a big one, guys. Now listen to this one. Is porn cheating? The consensus on TikTok says yes. And even a woman divorced her husband after eight years of marriage when she found out he was watching porn. Can I give you my impression? put on this. Yes, I'm very interested. Okay, porn is a very, very interesting thing these days.

I'm going to get into that to a second. I don't think porn is cheating. Here's what I think. I think if you're using it too much where it affects your sex life, yes. I think porn is okay. If you and your significant other travel a lot, maybe you're staying in hotels or he's not around, she's not around, and you're both on the same page with it. And it's okay. Of course, my sister is. My sister's calling right now. No, I'm not going to have my sister on during this. So I also think, I also think porn is so easily accessible now. You can literally be on the toilet watching porn.

You can watch, you can watch porn anywhere. And it's not frowned upon, again, as the, as the boner pills, as the dating websites, porn is not frowned upon anymore. You look at porn. There are some beautiful, beautiful people. I'm not so sure about that because back in our generation, right? You look at Only fans. But that's what I'm saying.

So back in our generation, we didn't have OnlyFans. We had, you know, and again, I had a young brother, okay? So, yeah, everybody, all the guys watched some porn on the internet, right? But we, we, I had a VHS tape and I had a Playboy in the, we had a fort in the back of the woods. So there was Playboy. Oh, really? So after school, we would ride our bikes. This is back in the day.

Okay, this is the early 90s. Before the Nintendo Switches, right? Before the Nintendo Switches, we would ride our bikes back to our fort and we had a playboy back there that one of the guys stole from his dad's garage. And we would go back there and look at the Playboy. Like that was a big deal. To see a Playboy, that was huge. Right. So, yeah, I think in our day, you know, like, yeah, guy, it was a thing.

Guy was watched some porn. Yeah. And I don't think people, like women had much of a problem with it. Whereas now, I think because, like you said, it's so overly accessible. and it's now impeding on the intimacy of what's going on in the bedroom in their relationships and how their sick partners feel. Now, I don't know, TikTok and social media, they 100% the majority feel that it is cheating. Again, again, this is something you have to discuss with your partner.

And the way I feel like this is kind of ruining relationships is because we are watching porn. with these crazy, crazy fantasies, right? You're watching different scenarios that normally don't... I don't know. Maybe I'm just... I don't think most women watch... Do they? I don't...

Honestly, I don't know. I don't... Whatever, but I've watched it, okay? So you watch these scenarios. You watch these scenes. You watch whatever. And they're not realistic, right? But this is something you watch over time.

And then you go to have relations with another woman, your wife, girlfriend, whatever. And it doesn't come up... It's not the same. So therefore, it's not it you could not perform maybe you go so whatever because you're not you're used to watching so that's what ticto it's it's desensitizing to you and if you see anything on ticot social media and they see people that want to um you do better to be successful men number one all the time is stop watching porn if you're trying to be successful in life you're trying to better yourself in life you're trying to get your mental health you're trying to be a good person number one always right under money right under this is stop watching porn because i think it comes down to self control right And if you're able to have self-control over yourself, that's the largest form of power. I think one can have for themselves, right?

Yeah. Like you, everything that you've been working on, right, with your mental health, it's self-control. It's self-control. It's really, really self-control. But like I said, the way the world is now with how easy and accessible it is, it's crazy. What do men notice first in a female? We got into this last week. you know, everybody's lying to you if they don't say they're physically attracted.

I'm saying you have to be physically attracted to the person. I don't care what guy says to you. No, that's not a big deal. I mean, yes, it is. You wouldn't go up and talk to the person if you weren't physically attracted or you saw something about her that, ooh, that's attractive. Right. Like, you're not going to engage. I don't, you know, you're not.

Especially if you're at a bar and you're having a couple drinks. You're not going over to sit there and talk about the weather. You know what I'm saying? You're there for a reason, especially single guys, right? you're looking for a partner, you're looking for a fun night. You know, you're going to find somebody that's attractive. For me, obviously, we talked about this before. I'm a boobs and butt guy, you know, I'm a feet guy.

I notice that right off the get-go. Those are deal breakers for me. But that's, but that's me. It's all different. Which is funny, because can I just say, I mean, you don't have like a 10 on 10 foot, right? Yeah. Oh, God, no, mine are busted. Right.

So, again, maybe you're, you're projecting, like, because what you don't have, you need. It was, it happened over time. First of all, I had bad feet. From hockey. Everybody in my family, it has bad feet. My sister had bunyan surgery. My mother had bunyan surgery. How come you haven't had it yet?

Because you have to be off your feet for six months at a time and you can't do both feet at one time. Does it hurt? Is it hurt? My sister's had one. No, but I'm saying, do your feet hurt now? Oh, yeah. Yeah. They hurt.

It's painful. But I can't afford to be off my feet for six months. I have a child. I have this. I just can't do it. So I'm just dealing with the pain right now. And it's fucking painful. Let me tell you.

So here's a question from a listener. Married for five years, together for eight. How often should we be having sex? What's healthy intimacy with your partner? This is a tough one. I think it's different for every couple. See, like when you start hitting that eight-year mark, like I said before, when you start hitting that, this is where you really need to work on your relationship. I think they say actually at year seven is kind of that.

that make or break timeline where if you really make it past seven, you go the distance or you don't. Right. And I think you really make some people really need to work at it. They need to go to therapy, sex therapy. They need to go on vacations more, spend more time each other, spice it up in the bedroom. That's a tough one because I know a lot of people that are in relationships that have been this long or not longer.

And I, you know, I even used to ask like, how does it work when you, when you, especially one of the ones that hit the 20 year mark. You know, I was one of my parents married for 40 years. Like, what the fuck? Did you stop at what time? We've talked about that. Like in our parents' generation and even our grandparents' generation, they just, they, they were more complacent, right?

Like, they just accepted their reality more. Here, you said, I think last episode, from your fingertips, you have right, shiny, face tuned and new right in the DM the second you open your phone. So the temptation is just very much present 24-7 in our generation. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I think I dove into this little bit, but I got a funny story for you guys. Interesting, actually. So the other day, I was tagged on Instagram by someone that posted a story from the bathroom at Jackson.

It was a rapper of something I found on the ground. I couldn't understand what it was, so I Googled the brand name of the rapper, and I found out it was. It was a male erection enhancer. I talked about this before. If men know they're going to be going home with a girl or if they know they have, you know, an issue. But at the end of the day, too, men are popping these because they're fun and you last a long time. Like whether you have a problem down there or not, people are popping them because you go for a while. It takes the pressure off to performing.

It does. It takes the pressure off. You know you're going to be hard no matter what. You know you're going to have a good time no matter what. You know you're not going to have a problem no matter what. It takes the pressure off of, okay, I can have a couple drinks tonight because I got a pill on my pocket. I mean, you really, really can't, you know, make this shit up. You really can't.

You know, you used to find gum wrappers on the floor or whatever. Now you're finding boner pill wrappers on the floor. And I think it was crazy that I was tagged in that, to be honest. So, I don't know. I want to know, I don't know if I should ask you this, but what are the girl's thoughts on male enhancers? You know, if your man took one, how would you feel? Do you think men should be quiet about it? Do you think they should be open about it?

No, I think if you're in a healthy relationship or marriage, that's all about communication. And if he's admitting to having a difficult time, you know, in that area and need some help, it's like anything else, right? Like if you have a mental health issue or diabetes and you need medication for it, then why should that? That's not embarrassing. No, it's not. And I have a couple friends that are married and the wife so many joke about it. She'd be like, don't forget, six o'clock, take that pill. They make funny.

They make jokes about it. Really? Like, take the pill tonight. We're going to be going out tonight. Take the pill tonight. Yeah. And they're okay with it. They're okay with it.

Because they know that they're sitting there's going to probably go on and have a drinks. And if she's going to want to come home, he's going to be like, eh. There's no eh when you take a pill. It's going to happen regardless of what you think. It's going to happen. Or you're going to be very, as a man, you're going to be very uncomfortable at night, sleeping with a hard on for eight hours. Why?

Okay, I did. I missed a question that people had that, that, that DM to me. Is it cheating if your wife hooks up with another female? I've taken, I've asked a lot of people about this. In my opinion, I don't think it's cheating. I don't. I think a lot of people are going to disagree. Of course they are. I don't know. It's preference. There's no right or wrong answer to this. There's, you know what, here's how I feel about it. I feel like women bring something to the table that a man can't bring, and I feel like there's no penetration. So I feel like it's a cuddling session. So if your wife cuddled with a male... That's no. That's not happening. Right. Because he's a man and he has a penis.

I think women can get things from other women that men can't give. And there's just something there that they just feel safe with. And again, there's no penetration. So it doesn't bother me. It doesn't bother me. And I have friends that disagree. So it can go one way or the other on this. Okay.

So this is one of the last questions. Somebody wrote in The Awkwardness of the Morning After. What are your thoughts? That's a tough one. I think for a lot of guys, I always come back to watching. I watch the movie Bridesmaids, right? And he's such an asshole, too, a girl. Like, he literally just kicks her out every morning, makes her hop the gate, go to her a little sad car.

And she just feels so sad. I think a lot of men, what they should do, be respectful. If you're going to go home with somebody, you're at a club, whatever, and this is the first night, and you know you're going to sleep with her, just be respectful.

I mean, at the end of the day, here we go. Number three, at the end of the day. You know, you want to be a nice guy. You know, she's going to tell her friends, be a nice person. I'll pay for her Uber, offer her lunch or breakfast or whatever.

Don't just kick her out. I think that's so rude. Girls are so insecure already these days with social media and how they look. I think kicking her out just like that. So can I stop you? Because I want to give you the female perspective for a second. You saying,

but this is me being a nice guy. And it is a difficult situation to be in because I think being the nice guy and having them stay over and then making them breakfast the next morning is why so many of these women find themselves in these situationships and kind of get like feeling love bombed

and breadcrumbed and feel like it's something more than it actually is. So for a man, a male's perspective, they're just trying to be not a dick. Not rude. Not rude. So you would like it. Okay.

Let's not talk about me. So, okay, let me see. So you think, I'm going to flip it for a minute, you think by telling a girl, okay,

it's eight o'clock in the morning, you got to go, go. You think that's better on some, a female's ego and all that? So I actually think that if we're talking about an, early situation ship or after a night at the club like you were saying I think the writer wrote in but I think for the female if they're going to the male's home it's on the female to come up with

some type of excuse like exit plan where she says she has an early an appointment she has to leave right after I mean no I don't know I'm too I'm too old I agree to disagree I think men should just have a little bit more grace. I just think because if you're literally, and again, if we're thinking this is a first night you're hooking up, you know, I just, I got to say you just got to be a little bit more respectful. I just don't think just saying got to go in leaving or having an exit plan so quickly.

I just, I personally think that's rude. I think I speak for a lot of guys. I just think that's rude. But then again, the younger generation is different than the older generation, you know? Maybe they're used to that. But like when we're speaking,

I mean, you don't even really know. Like, you're speaking based on, I don't know, when you were single 11 years ago. This was years ago. Yeah, yeah. I think it's different now. I think it may be different now. I don't know. I haven't really been down that road in a long time.

So, but I just think from what I hear and from what I see and from my single friends, you know, it's just more respectful. I don't know. I just, yeah, I think it's more respectful. And I think it's giving women the wrong impression. So, but at the same time. What are they supposed to do? Exactly. It's a tough.

The morning after is a tough situation. It's a tough situation. And nobody thinks about it because usually both people are drunk, right? And they go home and they're like, oh my God, what am I going to do afterwards, right? So I don't know. That's a tough. I'm glad I'm not in that position. All right.

That's about it for this week, guys. Really, really appreciate you. I hope I wasn't too graphic. But I think at the same time, people got a lot out of this. And, you know, we had to get into a little bit of the uncomfortableness. But I really, really appreciate it. I can't wait to have our sex therapist. son. I can't wait to get some callers in. And I really appreciate you guys. And thank you so much.

And we'll see you next week.
