I sit down with Dr. Nicole McNichols to dismantle the biggest myths men believe about sex, attraction, and confidence. We talk about why performance anxiety kills connection, how curiosity builds real sexual confidence, and what actually drives desire in long-term relationships. This conversation goes deep into emotional attunement, power dynamics, attachment styles, and why better sex starts long before the bedroom.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - What Men Misunderstand About Attraction01:07 - The Real Role of Confidence01:25 - Porn, Netflix, and Sexual Myths03:46 - The Reality of Sex Statistics06:12 - Performance Anxiety and Spectatoring07:31 - Sexual Curiosity Explained08:02 - How to Improve Your Sex Life Tonight10:18 - Talking During Sex Without Killing Desire11:27 - Why Uncertainty Is a Myth13:52 - Self-Growth vs Distance in Desire16:09 - Planned Sex vs Spontaneity17:49 - How Confidence Is Built Sexually19:32 - The Sexual Unicorn Myth22:50 - Getting Out of Your Head in Bed24:32 - When Your Partner Says “I Don’t Know”26:44 - Desire vs Arousal29:27 - Why Bodies Don’t Always Match Desire31:54 - Power Dynamics and Erotic Differences35:57 - Madonna-Whore Complex Explained42:47 - The Hierarchy of Sexual Needs44:36 - Attachment Styles and Sex48:33 - Emotional Attunement and Female Desire52:42 - Dominance, Safety, and Masculinity59:36 - When Men’s Needs Get Deprioritized01:04:35 - What Women Can Do Better Sexually01:07:44 - The Lost Art of Seduction01:10:06 - Final Takeaways and Where to Find Nicole***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?
