Sex For Everyone

by Alexandra Molotkow

Sellinger said having to figure out post-injury sex on her own wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. “Some people will say, ‘Is it really worth it if you have such decreased sensation?’ And of course it is, because it’s good for your partner, and it can be good for you too,” she said. “It still fosters intimacy. It’s kind of like the first time you had sex: you had to figure out how to do it, what felt good. You’re basically learning how to do it all over again, but it can be an adventure, not an ordeal.”
