It’s Feedback Wednesday so we answer listener’s emails and voicemails.

A husband is more well-endowed than his petite wife is able to receive without anxiety and even pain. How can they navigate this kind of size difference?

A husband has lost his erection several times and now is struggling while his wife is pregnant. She takes it personally – and so does he. What can they do?
