Dateable AF is a podcast about all things lesbian dating—or queer dating—or women-who-date-women dating. Whatever letter you vibe with, if you're a woman who dates women, this one's for you.
Hosted by two longtime friends, this show dives into the wild, wonderful, and often WTF world of dating women—with honesty, humor, and zero shame. Expect smart takes, relatable stories, and the occasional U-Haul reference.
Let’s talk about the kiss — that tiny moment that can make your whole world vibrate… or make you immediately regret life choices. 😬
In this episode of Dateable AF, Sarah and Rachel get up close (but not too close) to explore why kissing matters so much — and how it can reveal way more about your connection than you think.
💌 Thanks for listening to the Dateable AF Podcast, where we help you find your happy ending. Be bold, be kind, and for the love of queer dating — don’t text your ex.
Stay Dateable AF. 💙

In this episode of Dateable AF, Sarah and Rachel get up close (but not too close) to explore why kissing matters so much — and how it can reveal way more about your connection than you think.
We cover: 💋 Why kissing really matters — from the science of attraction and bonding to what it says about your relationship health. 🧠 The psychology + biology of kissing — how dopamine, oxytocin, and 80 million bacteria all play a role in that spark (or lack of it). ❤️ What makes a good kiss great — synchrony, safety, chemistry, and emotional attunement. 🚩 When kissing is a red flag — what a “meh” kiss can signal about compatibility, communication, or emotional distance. 🗣️ Technique, consent, and communication — why good kissing isn’t about moves, it’s about mutual energy and comfort. 💡 Practical takeaways:
Make time for a “just because” kiss — no agenda.
If kisses feel flat, ask, “What’s shifted between us?”
Celebrate the small kisses; they keep connection alive.
Because kissing isn’t just foreplay — it’s feedback. And when it’s good, it’s magic.
💭 Discussion Prompts
What’s the best kiss you’ve ever had — and what made it memorable?
Have you ever noticed kissing losing its spark — what changed?
How does kissing fit into your sense of intimacy or connection?

Rachel and Sarah discuss Ethical Non-Monogamy (1)

Dateable AF is a podcast about all things lesbian dating—or queer dating—or women-who-date-women dating. Whatever letter you vibe with, if you're a woman who dates women, this one's for you.
Hosted by two longtime friends, this show dives into the wild, wonderful, and often WTF world of dating women—with honesty, humor, and zero shame. Expect smart takes, relatable stories, and the occasional U-Haul reference.
Contrary to popular belief, ethical non-monogamy isn’t a free-for-all — it’s more like a team project with a lot of Google Calendar invites. 🗓️✨
In this episode of Dateable AF, Sarah and Rachel unpack what ethical non-monogamy (ENM) really means — and spoiler: it’s not just about sex. It’s about honesty, consent, emotional growth, and learning that love isn’t a limited resource.
We cover: 💡 What ENM actually is — from open relationships and swinging to polyamory and relationship anarchy. 🚫 Common misconceptions — “It’s an excuse to cheat,” “ENM people don’t get jealous,” and “It never works long-term.” ❤️ Why people choose ENM — curiosity, freedom, emotional honesty, and yes, better communication. 🧭 Keys to making it work — radical honesty, emotional regulation, clear boundaries, and (you guessed it) Google Calendar. ⚠️ When it goes wrong — saying “yes” when you mean “maybe,” using ENM to avoid commitment, or forgetting empathy along the way. 🌈 Advice for the curious — how to explore the idea safely, talk it through, and decide if it’s actually for you.
Because being open isn’t about loving more people — it’s about learning to love more honestly. 💖
💭 Discussion Prompts
On a scale of 1–10, how open are you to the idea of non-monogamy?
What parts of openness feel appealing — and what parts make you nervous?
How do you define “honesty” and “boundaries” in your relationships?
