How to Touch a Woman: The Art of Attunement, Pleasure, and Desire (With Elizabeth Anneka)
Thursday, 29 October, 2026
How to Touch a Woman: The Art of Attunement, Pleasure, and Desire What if becoming a better lover doesn't have much to do with knowing the right moves? Many men want to give women more pleasure. They want to know how to touch a woman in ways that turn her on, help her relax, and make her want more. But they may never have been taught what to pay attention to, or how to feel confident when they don't already know what to do. In this episode of Practicing Love and Man Alive, I'm joined by Elizabeth Anneka, touch and intimacy coach and founder of How To Touch Women, for a conversation about the art of creating more pleasure, connection, and desire. Elizabeth brings a fascinating perspective to this work. Drawing on her background studying animal behavior and her deep interest in the nuances of touch, she teaches men to pay attention to the subtle ways a woman's body responds. We explore why slowing down, noticing breath, lightening touch, and becoming more intentional can transform the experience of intimacy. We also talk about why women often need more than direct stimulation: they want to feel that their partner is present, responsive, and genuinely interested in their experience. As I write about, women don't always stop wanting sex. Sometimes they stop wanting the kind of sex they've been having. When touch feels disconnected, rushed, or focused primarily on reaching a destination, desire can diminish. But when a partner becomes more attuned to what feels good in the moment, something different becomes possible. We also explore the pressure many men feel around sex, the scarcity that can make intimacy feel like a question of getting a yes or a no, and the vulnerability involved in creating an experience that goes beyond performance. Because becoming a more confident lover isn't about knowing exactly what to do in every situation. It's about developing the curiosity, courage, and presence to meet another person in the moment. And this isn't only about what men can do for women. We also explore how intentional touch can help both partners become more aware of the pleasure they're capable of creating and receiving. In this episode, we explore: What matters more than memorizing a set of sexual techniques What helps a woman feel safe enough to relax and open to pleasure How pressure, scarcity, and fear of getting it wrong can interfere with sexual connection Why curiosity can be more useful than trying to appear confident How men can develop their capacity to create pleasure rather than focus only on performance Why emotional connection and the dynamics outside the bedroom affect what happens inside it How both partners can become more intentional about the experiences they're creating for each other If you want to deepen your understanding of women's pleasure and create more satisfying, connected sex, this conversation offers a place to begin.
