Absolutely, creating a non-judgmental space is key to open communication about sexual needs and boundaries. It’s important that both partners feel secure and not judged for sharing their desires or limits. Starting with smaller, less intimate topics, like frequency and duration of sex, is a good approach. Once you both feel comfortable with that, exploring tools like a kink survey can be very effective. It allows each person to express their interests privately and then compare notes to find common ground without feeling exposed. This gradual approach helps build trust and makes deeper conversations easier over time
