This event will be presented by Professor Brett Kahr: Although we have all encountered naked human bodies across our lifetime, very few of us have had the opportunity to explore the fully naked human mind, namely, the true contents of sexual thoughts and fantasies and unconscious wishes and unconscious fears. In this presentation on “Psychological Nudity” and its impact on couples, our speaker, London-based Professor Brett Kahr, will share the findings of his transatlantic research project, in which he has examined the erotic fantasies of more than 25,000 British and American adults, aged eighteen years and over, investigating the early infantile and early childhood origins of private masturbatory and coital fantasies and the subsequent impact of such private thoughts upon spousal relationships.
