Dear Prudence,
I feel like a complete oddity, but I am a male who hates sex. I feel
dirty and gross during and after the process. When I’m with a partner I
do my best to help satisfy their needs and desires, but I almost always
have to rush to the shower afterward. Some times I simply can't even be
touched without jerking away and having a panic attack. But I do love
going on dates, making dinner together, snuggling while watching movies.
I've tried therapy and anti-anxiety meds, but two years of seeing a
psychiatrist hasn't helped much and the meds just make me feel even more
disconnected. Help!
