Of course, I am talking to a group of people who prefer a self-help forum over a legitimate doctor's advice.

It's not rocket science no, ive actually heard of rocket science.
It is that unheard of to me. I have never heard of such a thing in my life! I've heard of dog whisperers a hell of a lot more to be honest as this thread is the first time I've ever heard of a 'sex educator'. If I talked to my therapist about it? They'd give me therapy for whatever issue it was, or else if it was a medical thing advise me to go to a GP about it!
As for your snipe at the end there I said the internet, not self help forums. As in I would use the internet to conduct research and attempt to help my problem whatever it was if it wasn't a physical issue like in women that it hurt too much or in men that they were suffering ED or if someone was worried they had an STI. Mind you even then i'd look on medical websites such as nhs online at symptoms to see first. But actually, if it was a non-medical thing I would go to a self help forum over my doctor, as my GP would say 'I'm sorry, this isn't a medical issue, I can't help you and it's rather inappropriate for you to have asked me, I advise you either talk to the therapist you're already seeing and see if they can help or else go online and research it'.
