British attitudes to sex. Is it ok for students to talk about sex with native speakers?

Can you have a great, long-lasting sex life with the same partner?

What do you think should be the legal age of consent (when people can legally start having sex)?

Can you learn to be passionate about someone if there’s no chemistry at first?
to fizzle out = apargarse

(Why) do women often get more criticism than men about their sex life?

Does true sexual equality exist between men and women?
