Rosey Blair (@roseybeeme) hosted our Dating in the Modern Age Reunion so we had her on to talk about the show, her dating journey, how she ended up with her now fiance, Houston, and fat people in the media.

We asked for questions and you delivered! We answer questions about dating, body confidence, sex, grief and so much more.

Dating in the Modern Age recap, Nicci is told her body is disgusting on the bus which turns into a conversation on negging.  We discuss the difference between negging and guys having awful "locker room" talk. And then that turns into a discussion about how we don't feel safe in the world. Also, there's a little Ted talk.

We dive into Fat Fishing, the insecurities we have from the trauma of guys on apps thinking we misrepresent our body (WHICH WE DON'T), and if we think there should be body preference options on dating apps. We jump all over the place in this episode but it's a fun ride!

On this episode we dive into why we keep dating guys we're not that into, what we want out of a relationship, stalk freezing eggs and PCOS, and we come up with our new dating mantra.

Part 2 with Tony P from @weightsinthewings on TikTok.  We talk guys jumping into DMs, why he thinks you should wait to have sex, he diagnoses Nicci with intimacy issues, we learn about a new sex toy and what a FUPA actually is, and a lot more!

We have on Tony P aka @weightsinthewings who does Plus Size Q&As from a guy's perspective on TikTok! We talk about fat preference vs. fat fetish, how he's always been attracted to plus-size women, Nicci gets a little too heated over a couple of his videos, but by the end, we're all friends and getting sex position advice from him. 

We find out if Alex completed her challenge from the last episode and then dive into all things SEX BA-BY! How do we navigate it as fat women? What was our first time like? Did we have a sexual awakening? What struggles do we have to overcome while having it? How do you have a conversation about concerns? We open up about it all. 

Fat women are either ostracized or over-sexualized which can lead to being a sexual late bloomer. Alex shares her experience with being over-sexualized at a young age and Nicci talks about how bullying affected her relationship with men. We take a big turn and talk about eating disorders and how our relationship with food has affected us with men. Alex admits that she thinks every guy that likes her is a chubby chaser, so Nicci sets her with the task of asking a guy that slid in her DMs if he is to help ease her fears. We were all over the place, but it's a good one!

We dish on our reactions to the first episode of Dating in the Modern Age and then dive into thin privilege - how we were treated differently when we were thinner, struggles that straight-sized people don't have to think about, Alex discusses what it's like to travel and be adventurous in a fat body and Nicci opens up that she is nervous for a date this weekend.
