In this episode, Tracey answers these three anonymous questions: My partner of 12 years wants me to ‘peg’ him. I didn’t even know what it was and had to google it. Now I’m worried. Not only don’t I want to do it, I’m worried it secretly means he’s gay. I found out my husband had sex with a hooker on his bachelor’s night just before we got married. What should I do now? That was five years and two kids ago. He deeply regrets it and swears he’s never cheated before or since and that his friends pu...

In this episode, Tracey answers these three anonymous questions: My husband of 13 years is suddenly wanting to try lots of new things in bed. Even more suspicious, he’s quite good at things I know he’s never done with me. I accused him of having an affair and he says he isn’t but what else could it be? He says he just wants to have more adventurous sex. But why now after all these years of quite boring sex? I’m really good at oral sex – it’s the thing I do best that really works on guys. So I wa...

I met a guy online and we’re about to meet in person. I found it really easy chatting and flirting with him online or on Zoom but in person I’m not half as confident. I worry when he sees the ...

In this episode, Tracey answers these three anonymous questions: I find sex at best uncomfortable, at worst outright painful. How do I make it more enjoyable? I have seen my doctor and he doesn’t seem to think there’s anything obviously wrong. We used to kiss all the time but just two years in, it’s all gone. I really miss it. How do I get it back again? We don’t even kiss during sex anymore. Do other long-term couples still kiss using their tongues? My partner takes Viagra ‘just for fun’. He do...

I wonder if you could give me some tips on giving another woman oral sex. I feel like I should know how to do it, because I’ve got what she’s got. But it’s not as easy as I thought.

In this episode, Tracey answers these three anonymous questions: I am 42, have been single for three years, and am starting to think I am never going to meet anyone.

In this episode, Tracey answers these three anonymous questions: 1. How can I get my partner to get more kinky? I've tried suggesting things, I've changed positions and he always reverts back to missionary style. I’d love to do it on the table, against the wall. Nothing works for him except in bed, the same way. This is boring! I even told him I have sex toys – he’s not even interested in that. I have a very old-fashioned guy. 2. I can’t stop thinking about the sex my partner had with his ex. I ...

I don’t want to talk to my doctor because I’m too embarrassed. 3. I think I’m asexual, and I don’t want to be. I wish that I wanted to have sex as much as my friends do. Am I ...

In this episode, Tracey answers these three questions and offers a signature sex tip: I’ve just split from my partner and back out there dating again. (Just when I thought I’d never have to stare at a stranger’s ceiling again, here I am!) I’m up to speed on online dating but what’s the etiquette with pubic hair now? Do I have to take it all off? I’ve always found the completely hairless thing a bit creepy (not to mention hard to maintain). How often should I be having sex? Is once a week enough?...

In this episode, Tracey answers these three questions and offers a signature sex tip: My partner is very close to a woman at his work. Pre lockdown, they’d joke that they’re each other’s ‘work husband and wife’. I don’t think anything is going on, but he does talk about her a lot and they used to have lunch together. Am I right to feel threatened now he’s soon back to work in the office? He admits he’s really looking forward to seeing her. She’s also married. I don’t orgasm during sex. What’s wr...
