Fabello, feminist writer and speaker. We talk about desirability politics, how our conditioned beliefs shape our sexual experiences, orgasms and a primer on feminism. In this episode, we chat about: - How Melissa got into body politics and how this gave her a framework for understanding the world, - Why understanding body image through the feminist lens can be a catalyst to healing, - What desirability politics are and why they are important,  - The influence that societal standards have on who we are attracted to,  - What to do if your partner is not on board with body positivity, - The role of body image on sexual satisfaction, - The different kinds of orgasms and how we experience them differently, - Why feminism is not the simple belief that men and women are equal, - The importance of intersectionality, Plus, so much more!
