Love, Sex and Intimacy with Diabetes

DivaTalkRadio - Divabetic

For the past 64 years. Barbie has been a part of our lives, a cultural touchstone, or the quintessential image of what a woman should be but never will be - a sex or beauty object. Greta Gerwig’s big-screen Barbie makeover and the related marketing blitz are inspiring us revisit and reevaluate Barbie and Ken's impact on our lives, including our sex lives. After all, if Barbie and Ken are confused about what to do at sleepovers, you might be too, especially if you're dealing with sexual health issues related to diabetes. Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in nearly all countries. People with diabetes experience sexual dysfunction more often than the general public.
