    Sex is whatever you and your partner decide it is. Whether that’s oral, manual play, outercourse, or something else entirely, if it’s consensual and pleasurable, it counts.

    Preguntas frecuentes

    Inclusive sex education is vital because research indicates that zero U.S. states currently require curriculums to be comprehensively inclusive for queer individuals. This lack of representation leaves approximately 95% of LGBTQIA+ students without answers regarding their bodies and safety. By providing a pleasure-first playbook, we aim to fill this gap, moving beyond basic mechanics to address the specific health and identity needs of the community.

    This podcast goes beyond the standard 'mechanics' often taught in traditional health classes, such as the classic banana demonstration. Instead, it offers a comprehensive look at sexual pleasure, communication, and identity. We focus on helping listeners navigate a healthy and fulfilling sex life without anxiety, ensuring that LGBTQIA+ individuals have the tools they need to understand how their own bodies work in a supportive context.

    When only about 5% of LGBTQIA+ students see themselves represented in health class, the majority are left to be self-taught or 'wing it' in the real world. This lack of comprehensive sex ed often leads to a mountain of unanswered questions about safety and pleasure. Our goal is to provide the information that traditional education misses, fostering a sense of confidence and belonging for queer folks exploring their sexual identity.
