Dear Dr. Glenda: My partner and I are arguing a lot about our sex life. We don’t really have one, except maybe a couple times in the past year. She thinks we should work on this, but when I talk to my friends they aren’t having much sex either. Sex has never been that big […]
I created this complimentary, informative, fun, three day tele-summit to inspire heart centered, health-oriented LBTQ women who are ready to come together to find and keep Lasting Lesbian Love! I hand picked 12 experts to interview who – like myself – are leaders and like-hearted LBTQ women and allies who specialize in serving the world […]
What’s a very common refrain you hear when you ask a lesbian about her sex life? “Once we get started, I love it!†Actually, you hear a version of that about a lot of things, not just sex. “I didn’t want to go to that party, but once I got there I had a great […]
What makes me think I could start clean slated? The hardest to learn was the least complicated – Indigo Girls I sit, along with four married/partnered girlfriends, at a table in a bar, in between happy hour and the late hours reserved for the young ones and notice we are all talking about the same […]
Lesbian relationship and sex expert Dr. Glenda Corwin answers our questions! Dear Dr. Glenda, My partner has been spending a lot of time with a recent female acquaintance who shares common career and social interests. They meet at least weekly for lunch or coffee, and often talk on the phone or text. I’ve never had […]
Here’s something that doesn’t need to be said:  I’m just not attracted to you. Recently “Sally & Sue†came in to talk because they hadn’t had sex in several months. Sally was very upset about it. She missed the warmth and intimacy of their early relationship, but was afraid that Sue had shut down permanently. […]
Excerpt from Lesbian Marriage: A Sex Survival Kit By Kim Chernin and Renate Stendhal Marriage is not the remedy for couple trouble! But there is a lot of magical and wishful thinking about it: marriage will give you a new start, fix your problems, fulfill your dreams… It’s the myth of the “Make-Over Marriage.†(Should […]
Recently I attended a couples’ therapy training program, which was terrific–research-based, positive, practical.   And unexpectedly depressing, as they showed videos of elderly heterosexual couples holding hands and talking tenderly about their 50-70 years of wedded bliss.  How many us can identify? Never mind the sexual orientation–how many of us have that many years in that […]
Seven years ago a young woman came to my office for consultation about a very specific question. She asked “Do you think lesbian bed death is inevitable?â€Â Her story was sadly familiar. She had been living with her partner for 12 years, the past 5 without sex. She was unhappy about this, but her partner […]
It’s a great time of year for reflecting on what works well in your life and what doesn’t.  What to continue, or quit doing?   Some things seem obvious—addictive drinking, smoking, and eating are all bad for your health, so it would be good to quit. It’s just hard to do.  At least you can know […]
Hang on, it's going to be a wild ride!
