A is for Asexuality

Hello! Today I want to talk a little bit about asexuality. Because it’s a term that a lot of people tend to get confused about, which makes sense, as it’s a label and community that’s only just started to become more widely discussed and understood in the past 15 years or so.

“Cherry Popping” (Hymen Myths)

Hey everyone! Today I really wanna talk about the hymen, one of the most sensationalized but least understood bits of human anatomy. Particularly the things that people tend to get very, very wrong about it. But before we get into that, let’s start by discussing what the hymen is…

TOXIC SEX TOYS?

♪ And now we’re gonna talk about sex. ♪ More specifically, sex toys. More specifically, sex toy materials, and which ones are and are not safe to be putting in and around your body. One of the main problems with sex toys is that they’re widely used, but with sex and anything to do with it being regarded as “taboo” topics in our culture, they’re not widely discussed…
