    Mary - Sex, Love & Christianity

    Mary - Sex, Love & Christianity

    What happens when you’ve experienced casual relationships and sex, but have religious beliefs where that would be frowned upon? 
    Today Lucy meets Mary, who is a conservative Anglican Christian. Her church follows the bible very strictly in terms of theology, and they believe that relationships should be intentional; that is with the intent to marry. 
    Mary was raised as a Christian, but slipped away from the church when she was at university, where she experienced sexual relationships outside of marriage. Now in her thirties, Mary is single and has returned to the church. 
     
    In this episode, she talks to Lucy about being an anomaly in her church, how she identifies as bisexual but would never have a relationship with a woman, and how her beliefs have affected her friendship and relationships.

    Arlo & Rosie - Changing Gender Identity

    Arlo & Rosie - Changing Gender Identity

    Today Lucy chats to Arlo and Rosie. They met and became a couple 6 years ago, and at the time, they both identified as female. But during the course of their relationship, Rosie realised that she thought Arlo might be non-binary. 
     
    In this episode, Arlo and Rosie tell Lucy all about how they navigated the process of Arlo working out what their gender identity was, their transition process, and how that affected the couple's relationship. 
     
    They also talk about both of their coming out stories - and how Arlo came out for a second time as non-binary, and how empowering that was for them!

    Leanne Yau - Polyamory

    Leanne Yau - Polyamory

    In this episode, we’re talking once again about non-monogamy, but this time, Lucy is asking how feasible it is to be in love with more than one person at a time. 
     
    She chats to Leanne Yau, the founder of polyphilia.blog, a hugely popular Instagram and project which is full of resources and entertainment around polyamory, non-monogamy and open relationships. 
     
    In this episode, Lucy and Leanne chat about how people’s relationships can benefit from being more open, how that can work logistically, and what happens when sometimes those logistics don’t quite align (and you get home and your boyfriend is in the bedroom having sex with his date!) 
     
    Leanne also talks lots about the rise in popularity for content about polyamory in recent years (her Instagram has over 100k followers!), is this a lifestyle Lucy might want to try herself? 
     
    You can find more on Leanne… .

    Yasmin Benoit - Asexuality and Aromanticism

    Yasmin Benoit - Asexuality and Aromanticism

    On this episode of the podcast, Lucy delves into what it means to not experience sexual or romantic attraction.
     
    Yasmin Benoit is a model and an award-winning asexual activist, and knew she didn’t feel romantically for people as a teen. 
     
    She talks honestly with Lucy about growing up, representation, and how not having the distraction and pressure of navigating romantic relationships has given her more time and headspace to do the things she loves! 
     
    Yasmin evidently leads a very fulfilling and enjoyable life without romance and sex, which leaves us all wondering; are we putting too much time and effort into finding relationships?

    Sebastian - ‘Hands On’ Sex Education

    Sebastian - ‘Hands On’ Sex Education

    In this episode Lucy takes a look at the world of escorts, and hands on sexual education, when she chats to Sebastian. 
     
    Sebastian is an escort and offers sex education to his clients as part of his services. He and Lucy chat about the type of work that he does - from drinks to holidays - as well as the types of people that use his services, both women and couples. 
     
    He talks about his own journey from discovering swinging to escorting, and how his family and friends are supportive of what he does (it might be a bit too much for his nan though!)
