I do not have trouble talking about sex as an adult. The therapist has asked about it once or twice. I do not really find it all that pertinent to why I go see her, but I can talk about it. I am gay and she is straight which may or may not factor into it. Much easier than when she tries to talk about the possibility of crying in her office. (I agreed it was not impossible but highly improbable).
Possible trigger***
The other way sex has come up is in relation to csa when I was a small child. But there the sex parts are not particularly hard for me to talk about there either. The difficulty there is the insistence that I must feel something when I just do not.
