Dealing with Trauma, Learning to Love Your Body & Flirtation Techniques

This week, Jess teams up with April Lampert and Amy Baldwin from the Shameless Sex Podcast to tackle listener questions including:

1. How can I deal with sensitive genitals (e.g. labia)?

2. How can I make sex less threatening after sexual assault? How do I talk to a new partner about past trauma?

3. What should I do about labia hypertrophy and how do I get more comfortable with my body?

4. How do I get over body shame related to things my ex said to berate my body?

5. I hear so much about eye contact as a tool of flirtation and connection. How else can I flirt without using my eyes since I’m almost blind?

6. How do Canadians pronounce the word about? ;)
