Jeans And A Nice Top

For most of us, sex is great. Like, GREAT great. But what about when f*cking isn't fun, it's just f*cking painful? For many women living with endometriosis, this is their reality - and it can make everything from long-term love to casual hook ups really difficult to navigate. This week, we chat to Bridget Hustwaite, host of Good Nights on Triple J and author of How To Endo, a guide to endometriosis based on her own lived experience.

Ah it's the age old question: Is it ever OK to have a crush on someone else when you're in a relationship? Well, as we discuss in this episode, there's levels to it.

From occasionally winking at the woman who makes your coffee each morning to having a soft spot for Todd in IT, when it comes to crushes, there's definitely a line in the sand between harmless fun and hoo-boy, you bad.

We're back, baby! Welcome to Jeans and a Nice Top season 2, where we're kicking off by chatting to everyone's favourite critical thinker, Flex Mami. To celebrate the launch of Reflex Sex with Lovehoney, her new card game designed to get people talking about their attitudes toward sex, we went deep on everything from favourite positions (and why) to expectations in relationships.

Grab your own set of Reflex Sex here, and follow Flex on Instagram here.

It's the end of season 1! In this minisode, we reflect on our most sage advice this season - a miracle given we are both still trainwrecks. Thanks so much for listening and getting involved in Jeans and a Nice Top! We'll be back with season 2 in a few weeks.

Ah, missionary. The vanilla sponge of the sex world... or is it? In this episode, we have a frank discussion around why swinging from the chandeliers isn't necessarily the status quo when it comes to getting down (even if it feels like everyone else on planet earth is) as well as our usual ramblings around modern-day dating. Fun!

This week, we're out here cancelling dates left, right and centre. Lol, not really – but hey! Life gets busy, and sometimes rainchecks are needed. We discuss how to cancel a date if you want to send the message you're still keen (just not tonight, that's pasta and Gossip Girl night), what to do if you just don't EVER want to see them, and how to know if you're being completely dumped... or just postponed.

Meeting a bunch of new people can be a daunting prospect by anyone's standards, but even more so when they're your new squeeze's mates. In this week's episode, we delve into a tricky one: When should you introduce someone to your friends? And how do you navigate meeting someone else's? We have many (many!) thoughts.

Casual relationships are pretty much the norm these days - from situationships to f*ck buddies, we're all out here not committing to each other. Sometimes, it's great! Casual dating can be really liberating and enjoyable. But it can also be hell on Earth and leave you sobbing into some Blue Ribbon ice-cream at 3am. Every night. We chat do's and don't's, and some of our own god-awful stories.

This week we are asking the age-old question: when the pickings are slim, is it worth hitting up your old matches on the apps?

Whether it's delving into your chat history to dig up a long-dead convo with someone who seemed keen or picking back up with someone you forgot to reply to six months ago (oops!), Mel and Ash have thoughts.

This week we're talking exes - again. But this time, it's about when you've moved on (or you're moving on - go you! Reading your Brene Brown and running every day!) but then you run smack-bang into your ex. The worst. How do you navigate that run in? What do you say - and do you have to say anything at all?

This episode was made possible by Good Times Pilates – fitness with a healthy side of body positivity. You can check out their classes (including online!) here.
