Sex Surrogates and Love-Shyness

Any truly comprehensive program calculated to guarantee a complete cure for intractable, chronic and severe love-shyness must incorporate a program facet that entails use of sexual surrogates.

- Gilmartin's Shyness & Love  (p.527)

Sex surrogates are therapists who will actually have physical intimacy up to and including sexual intercourse with their clients. Real sex surrogates have gone through extensive training and are not at all the same as prostitutes. Unfortunately, sex surrogate treatment is expensive (typically at least US$2,000 to $3,000) and only available in a few select cities. A quality sex surrogate therapy will incorporate an additional therapist who oversees the treatment.

Sex surrogates commonly treat adult virginal males and should help significantly with the phobic aspects related to physical intimacy. Although many love-shys have serious sexual issues requiring the use of surrogate therapy, it is not a total cure for love-shyness. But, for those who can afford it, it seems the best love-shy treatment that currently exists.

Sex surrogates employ the technique of sensate focus. Sex surrogates and sensate focus therapies were developed by the renowned sex researchers Masters and Johnson.

Anyone interested in this therapy should view this documentary of a sex surrogate. One of the profiled clients is obviously love-shy.

Since sex surrogates are generally out of reach for many love-shys, the next alternative is prostitution. Prostitution does not provide the therapy of surrogates, but it is cheaper, available in every city and offers sexual experience. I do not advocate breaking the law, so go where it is legal like Canada. For everyone's safety do not employ streetwalkers, underage girls and women obviously drug-addicted. Search the internet for “erotic provider reviews”.
