By Elena Beets and Melody Thomas
Audience Q: He takes a really long time to climax every time. What are the possible reasons?
Melody and Elena call in the big guns (Elena’s Dad Nic - an actual sex and relationships therapist) to answer the questions within this question: What is ‘too long’ when it comes to cumming?

So developing the skills and confidence to have these conversations is vital.” - Nic Beets
