  • I’ve never felt more seen

    I absolutely love Dads and Daddies! As a gay dad to an 11-year-old, happily married and in an open relationship, it’s so refreshing to hear from people whose lives and relationships look a little like ours.

    My husband and I are incredibly happy in our marriage, and we’re living our best lives together. I love hearing honest conversations about what works, what doesn’t, how different couples navigate their relationships, and especially hearing people celebrate sexual freedom without shame while ... more

Q: Where does your optimism come from?

Q: My husband and I have been together for six years, married for three. We recently started to share videos and pictures of stuff that turn us on. I sent him a video of a threesome and he said he would be down for something like that since he came out late in life and hasn't had the chance to explore. Huge kink for me is threesomes and cuck. I know to be open, honest, and direct with it, but I'm having a hard time thinking about bringing it up to him again. Any advice?
They encourage the listener to raise the subject directly and without embarrassment, since his husband has already expressed interest. Brian adds that conversations about sex and opening a relationship can develop gradually, and suggests choosing a setting that helps them feel comfortable talking.
