  • Do Sex Toys Ruin or Rescue Relationships?

    Do Sex Toys Ruin or Rescue Relationships?
    Feb 18 2026
    For some, they’re still wrapped in stigma, while for others they’ve become symbols of freedom, self-discovery, and better relationships. But what’s the real role of sex toys in our lives today? This week on The Pleasure Principle, Dr. Mansi Jain and Jyotika go beyond the buzz to explore the questions most people are hesitant to ask. Do toys replace partners, or can they actually bring couples closer? Is the fear of becoming dependent on them real, or just another myth? Can toys reduce performance pressure, improve communication, and change the way we understand intimacy altogether? And why is it so important that sex education finally includes conversations about pleasure tools? From breaking myths to uncovering the deeper role of toys in confidence and connection, this episode takes a bold look at how they are reshaping intimacy in the modern world. If you’ve ever wondered whether toys are just about “spicing things up” or if they hold the key to healthier, more fulfilling relationships, this conversation is for you. Subscribe now for more raw and honest conversations on love, intimacy, and pleasure. New episodes every Wednesday, only on The Pleasure Principle.

    Is Monogamy Dead in 2025? The Pleasure Principle
    Feb 11 2026
    Is monogamy still the gold standard of relationships or have we outgrown it? In this episode of The Pleasure Principle, Dr. Mansi and Jyotika unpack some of the toughest questions around modern love: Can you love more than one person at the same time? Is non-monogamy only about sex, or can it deepen emotional connection? Are we truly wired for exclusivity, or just conditioned to want it? How do jealousy and insecurity play out differently in open vs. monogamous setups? Is it unrealistic to expect one partner to meet all our needs for life? This is an honest, provocative, and eye-opening conversation about the future of love, loyalty, and desire. Do you think monogamy is outdated or is it the only way to keep love alive? Tell us in the comments.

    Dirty Talk Decoded: How Communication Becomes Foreplay
    Feb 4 2026
    Words can be just as powerful as touch. In this episode of The Pleasure Principle, we decode the art of dirty talk , why it works, how to start, and how it can transform intimacy. Is dirty talk just about saying “naughty” things, or is it really about building connection? What do you do if you feel shy, awkward, or don’t know what to say? How do you explore different styles like playful, romantic, commanding, or submissive without judgment? And what happens if you say the “wrong thing” in the heat of the moment? Whether you’re curious to try dirty talk for the first time or looking to deepen intimacy with your partner, this conversation will help you unlearn myths, discover your style, and embrace communication as foreplay. Tune in, listen, and let’s talk pleasure.
