From Dirty Talk to the A to Z of Sex Toys, Poppy and Rubina confess all the funny and intimate details of their sex lives. A South Asian woman still can’t talk openly about her sex life, but Poppy and Rubina are determined to change that, beginning with their own experiences.

In this new series of Brown Girls Do It Too, Poppy is continuing on her exploration of non-monogamous dating and Rubina is navigating sex and love as a (relatively) new mother.
They continue to break taboos and ask difficult questions such as “Has BDSM become passé?” “Are younger men better in bed?”, or “Is the baby monitor the ultimate mood killer?”.
Brown Girls Do it Too is a raucous celebration of sex, love, heartbreak and friendship.

    Sex Mistakes: Je Ne Regrette Rien

    Sex Mistakes: Je Ne Regrette Rien

    Comedians Grace Campbell & Chris Hall join Poppy & Rubina to discuss sex mistakes and mishaps. Are some regrets inevitable? And why do some of us make the same mistakes over and over again?
    Lessons learned include: always use protection; check if the guy you're hitting on is dating your best friend; sometimes the night bus IS better than a stranger's bed, and... not everyone fancies you but that's okay.
