Being your own sex coach, with Nat from That Bitch
When was the last time you got a bit of sex education? For many of us, the only time it happens is during sex ed at school, or if we have to go to an expert to solve a problem. But we can all benefit from learning to do sex better - and it’s totally possible to boost your sex skills solo.
This is where Nat Cee comes in. She’s a queer sexual health promotion project worker, writer and podcaster who’s on a quest to start conversations around sexual health and sexuality. Now she’s joining me on this episode of the podcast to share her thoughts on sexual self-education, and how to get started having better sex – no previous qualifications required.

The perfect dick pic, with Gabriel
When it comes to online dating, the good ‘ol ‘unsolicited dick pic’ is one of the most common hazards people – especially women – have to deal with. But not everyone hates the idea of getting a dick pic – if it’s properly negotiated first. When we’re swapping sexy photos with someone online there are tons of people out there who appreciate a good penis picture.
This time around I’m welcoming my friend Gabriel back for a second conversation. You might remember him from episode 11, the one about sex disasters...but as it turns out, he’s also pretty darn good at taking sexy selfies. Join us as we discuss the dos and don’ts of dick pics...and where to put the camera when your hands are busy.
