About this episode
In this episode, Dr. Brandon talks about the complexity of human desire, the conflict between what we think we should want versus what our bodies actually crave, and how sex tech is reshaping intimacy and relationships. 00:01 The Struggle Between Desire and Expectations – People often feel torn between what they think they should want and what actually excites them. 00:47 The Reality of Human Sexuality – Attraction doesn't always follow the rules we expect, which can create real challenges in relationships. 01:06 The Dessert Analogy: Understanding Bodily Desires – Just like craving chocolate cake over fruit, we can't control what turns us on, even if we choose differently. 02:35 Sex Tech: Personalization and Its Implications – Sex tech can be customized in ways human partners can't, which makes it powerful but also complicated. 04:06 The Future of Sex and Technology – As tech keeps evolving, we need to think about how it fits into our lives and relationships.
