[Throbbing] Members Only

“I’ve never met a penis before!”

In which the throbbing members discuss losing their socially constructed virginity. It’s about as cringey as it sounds, so you better listen. 

Virginity References

DISCLAIMER: VIRGINITY IS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT AND IN OUR SOCIETY TYPICALLY HAS A PHALLO-CENTRIC DEFINITION!

Now that that’s out of the way…

Sissel

Let’s begin with Sissel’s story. She was very sexually frustrated… for most of her life, but also kind of scared of it all? So she eventually forced the issue. All of the unrequited crushes never worked out, so she “found” a guy getting off a bus to have sex with instead! Tall, dark haired, pierced ears, her type.

"Remember when we said this was a podcast without judgement? We fucking lied."

In which we interrogate Sissel to find out all about her sizzling past and scintillating future. Listen to this quickie to learn more about this wild woman!

Meet Sissel!

Quickie Questions

1. If you were to have sex with food items, which food items would you like to incorporate into your sex life?

But in her heart of hearts Sissel would like to emotionally fuck bread... If it's incorporating a food into sex, she wants something that can be licked off her.

2. Describe your ideal date?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BNwiqDGz5g

An all day date with making food, watching tv, and as much sex as possible.

3. Tell us a bit about your threesome?

It was short term incredibly healthy relationship. She found them on Bumble, and was mostly attracted to the girl. Was very nervous about meeting them, but from the start they were both some excited to have Sissel there, in a very open and interested way. She had never been in a relationship with a guy who was so honest about his interest in her, and she assumes it was because they were so secure in their relationship that being vulnerable about their interest in her wouldn't be a problem.

It was a bit of rocky start. It was fun but the girl at one point tapped out so Sissel wasn't that interested in sticking around (she was mostly there for the girl anyways). They all had sex, for a short while... and only Sissel orgasmed... but she always orgasms!

They went on a second date... This time the girl had food poisoning... Sissel started to wonder if she wasn't interested...

But they went on a third date! They sexted before, sent some noods... And this time it was great!

In summary, it was weirdly the healthiest relationship she'd ever been in, because everyone was open about what they wanted, they were communicating really well before, during, and after! But she didn't love them as people so while the sex was fun, she didn't see it working out long term. Would do again!

But also... She got chlamydia! :(

Which was also a very healthy open experience! They were very upfront about it and super communicative, and she got tested and treated, and had a fun night in a bar with Gina and Kelly telling them all about it.

4. What's the ultimate role play fantasy?

With a woman: A roleplay scenario where the woman is more experienced and somewhat in power in the scenario, really shows Sissel the ropes.

With a man: A taboo sexual encounter? Somewhere she shouldn't be with someone she shouldn't be with? Or maybe historical? A bodice ripper? Maybe someone in a kilt? Maybe just Jaime from Outlander...

5. Ultimate Fictional Dibs!

This is hard.... She wants someone funny and not brooding and annoying... maybe Piz?

We'll come back to this later in the quickie...

In these unprecedented (debate-able times) the throbbers discuss the sexiness of coronavirus. In particular we discuss our bingo... please partake and share with friends!!!

BUT ALSO!!! We have guest! Her name is Ginger, and she has intimate knowledge of the dating scene during COVID-19... Incredibly horny! But also how everyone is discovering how many of their coworkers are cam girls... or pondering that we might all be cam girls now.

FIND IT ON INSTAGRAM <----- This is us please follow!

We discuss if TikTok is a quarantine past time? But also why are people posting it on instagram? Is it that old people have joined TikTok? And Instagram is for old people? Are WE old people? Probably...

Felling Un-Sexual

Gina is feeling very scared of interacting and touching people, her sexual arousal has been completely disconnected from human beings. She's still masturbating... don't get me wrong... she makes it very clear she is STILL masturbating. Her horniness is being removed from other people... and been reduced to her vibrator.

Hannah and Sissel both discuss their reduced horniness. Sissel agrees that vibrators are arousing. Attraction to machines, quarantine problems.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B9zrW1UB4Ui/

We invite you to enjoy The Reddot Comics... Featuring an anthropomorphized vibrator.

Maisie (and everyone) is really getting into the bored masturbating routine, no one is that turned on but treat yourself to some bored masturbation. There are no better options these days.

Ginger is too fucking irritated and mentally exhausted so she has no energy for masturbation. Gina has been 100% compensating for her anxiety by working too hard and thus exhausting herself into not being horny. Hannah has also been pushing her energies into work because it's the only thing she can control right now, so masturbation has been low on her list of priorities. But she has been having quarantine themed stress sex dreams!!! YAY!!!! Gotta love some illegal state park tree fucking! (Only in dreams though... sad face.)

COVID - 19 Dreams

Vintage References

Textbook | Women's Institute Library of Cookery [1918]

A very good analysis of how woman were always smart and when they were relegated to the home they turned homemaking into a science. It really is a useful book filled with economic reasoning and biological explanation. It's from the 1910s... before the 50s an 60s really made homemaking easy (home appliances)... So this shit is detailed! It's also from back when woman were in charge of household finances, and you needed to know things like weight of a chicken - to see if your butcher is scamming you - you know, important things.

The whole thing is giving Gina Ethan Frome vibes.

We don't know who wrote this book, by the way... If you do, let us know!?!

It has some standard sexism (everyone is a housewife!) and racism ("hot climate people" *cough brown people* don't have a balanced diets and are thus inferior).

Betty Crocker's Picture Cookbook [1950]

Basic vintage cookbook for all the prep you need for starring in the Great British Bake Off. Some things we learned:

Cookie is spelled with a y, which is weird. Cooky. Cookey? Who knows.

Bummer that Betty Crocker was invented by a man...

Vintage food photography is really not good... Does not look appetizing, especially the gelatin *barf*

Not too sexist... Same as todays cookbooks (so kind of super sexist)

Hannah stole both of her cook books from her sorority. Thanks girls!!!!

Betty Crocker's Hostess Cookbook [1960s]

Its really quite a useful book if you're going for an Mrs. Degree

Only talks about men in regards to grilling (which is still true, men are obsessed with grilling). Only Maisie is into grilling... all the rest of the Throbbers have let our dads handle that shit.

Be careful about grill brushes! Those metal bristles can be trapped inside you forever.

Fifteen [1956]

A book about a fifteen year old girl who wants to get a boyfriend... So she does!

She meets a boy who delivers horse meat for dogs... So obviously he's a keeper!

Surprisingly, the scenes in the book with her boyfriend (Stan) were fine. The scenes with other girls were sad and gross. A lot of belittling single-dom and hanging out with friends. Friends first everyone! We do not recommend not having friends.

Her rivalry with Marcy was particularly bad for women everywhere. Marcy is the perfect 50s girl:

* driving in a convertible* tan* blonde* cashmere sweater* pearls* smiling like she's better than you (cause she is)

Marcy and Jane (the main character) should really bang.

Interesting tidbits: She actually babysits as like an almost legit job...

Keep his secrets, massage his shoulders, and stay pretty doing it!

Then we just dissected the crap out of how we feel about all these different languages. Analyzing how our pasts and different relationships have impacted how we feel about them.

We graze past the concept of consent. Everyone has different thresholds for interactions and it's important to ask before you engage with someone... *cough* Gina *cough* you can't just hug people. We discuss how our different levels have impacted our friendships and how we interact physically with each other. We also discuss American touch culture, and how it compares to our interactions in Spain and Japan. How do you determine the motivation behind your desire for physical touch? Is it touch starvation? Is it horniness? How do they differ?

Touch Starvation

Have you ever been in loved? (lol)

We discussed being loved and loving in a romantic way... but not necessarily marriage.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2m6sHROA3U

But not mawwage....

This part is hard... Talking about love is hard. Hit you like a ton of bricks, falling in love like falling asleep, wouldn't wish it on your worst enemy kind of love.

We discuss the validity of crushes as an emotional experience. How it's fun and can be the preamble to a good thing! Or a many-year-long crushing experience. Does it need to be reciprocal to count as real love?

We discuss how the media represents love and how that meshes with our interpretation of love. Should the love interest be vacuuming the whole time? Would that make a better movie?

Maybe you need a farmer in your life to be in love?
