Today's Trivia Answer

Question: What percentage of ONE Family couples have boundaries about what they share with friends and family regarding their sex life?

A. 11%

B. 36%

C. 61%

D. 86%

Only 36% of you have clear boundaries about what you share with friends and family regarding your sex life.

If you haven't had that conversation with your spouse, you're setting yourself up for potential heartache and arguments.

Start with a simple question: "If sex comes up in conversation with friends or family, what would you be okay with me sharing?"

For example...

• Your use of toys
• Your positions
• Embarrassing moments
• Your frequency

These conversations need boundaries, and only the two of you can decide what's off-limits.
