And how is that you ask? Well, I am not an historian so I will spare how it came to be that an entomologist, aka a researcher of creepy crawlies…yikes!... ended up writing 2 volumes that revolutionised the beliefs 1950s Americans had about sex. I will however share the key tenet of his research method…controversial, yes, biased, yes and a child of its time, yes but let’s give Kinsey a break, it was a revolution in its simplicity. The aptly named - does what is says on the tin

I spent last weekend fully immersed in a SAR workshop, emerging dazed, exhausted, over excited, joyous and hopeful. SAR stands for Sexual Attitude Reassessment, a pre-requisite for my certification and a must for professional development within the field of Clinical Sexology.

The Sex Coach is a champion for the Client, providing guidance, suggestions, resources that help the Client find their truth and make positive change in their sexual life.

History has shown that sexology was, for centuries, mainly linked to the anatomical study of sexual organs, their physical form, their physiology and how they performed, in order to sustain reproduction. Other areas, we are slowly discovering as essential components of the sexual experience, such as the psychology, feelings, emotions, behaviours of humans involved in sexual activities, were considered not relevant as not directly involved in procreation, which is what sex is

Sex coaching falls under the umbrella of sexology, the scientific study of sex, namely the interests, functions, and behaviours of humans in regard to sex and sexual expression. Like so many other areas subject to study, i.e. 'ologies', the outcome of deep immersion in a specific field generates different outcomes and directions that go from research to applied knowledge to commercial opportunities. We can see example of this across multiple areas, say, study the muscle struc
