"I was raised in a religious conservative home. Pornography was sin, sex outside of marriage was sin and only for the marriage bed. My dad never talked to me about my body or being confident in it.

Taboo like nudity's constant association to sex have riddled our minds with a lack of confidence in...

I have done quite a bit of EMDR for sexual trauma from our marria...
