Plus, the future of one night stands
|
|
The coronavirus pandemic has totally changed the way we live, from how we shop to how we socialize and with whom. Naturally, it’s changed our sex lives, too.
This week, we launched Risky Business: Love And Sex In A Germaphobic World, a series that explores the way COVID-19 is changing the way we date, have sex and enjoy intimacy. What’s happened to first kisses? One-night stands? Will we be more cautious getting physically intimate with someone new? How are people in open marriages navigating their relationships now?
To kick of the series, Kelsey Borresen talked to sex therapists about how the pandemic has already altered our sex lives. Keep scrolling for a look at the future of first kisses and one night stands, and I’ll be back next week with more from this series right as summer is getting hot.
