We Come From Queens

Yes, this is what you think it is. This is the final episode of We Come From Queens. It has been an amazing four and a half years of growing as women, making new friends, being exposed to various opportunities and being embraced in this way.

We thank everyone that came out to our 100th episode celebration. It was a bittersweet send off though we did not make the announcement then as to not bring the vibe down.

We are grateful for this journey and look forward to whatever life has in store for us.

We will keep the store open until Jan 31, 2019 so get your orders in by then. All of the podcast social media will remain up though it probably will be less activity happening there.

The episodes will still be available at least until 2020. We will be transferring them over to this website and so you probably will not be able to access all on soundcloud.

In episode 75 - F.R.I.E.N.D.S we spoke about the highs and lows of friendships during the course of our lives thus far. We revisited this topic to speak a bit more candidly about when friendships end, the roles we played and getting over being hurt by a friend.

Some of the questions we answered:

Do you ever use the term loosely?/ Why/ In what instance?

Do you have more male or female friends? (Why) Do you think it’s important to have friend of both sexes?

Have you ever belonged to a crew?/ Do you still belong to a crew?

Is there a key to maintaining friendships/ relationships?

What’s the most you’ve done to maintain a friendship?

If you could, would you go back in time and bring a friend to the current moment with you?/ Why?

What were some red flags that a friendship was ending?

Have you ever been hurt from a girlfriend/ friendship?/ How did you heal from it?

This week, we venture into an uncharted topic of conversation (for us)... sex. We invited Samia of Sexual Essentials LLC on to share her expertise, give some insight to her brand and answer some listener questions.

Samia’s mission statement

To teach, encourage and promote the sexual extensions of ourselves, which we think is a fantasy. With the correct knowledge, passion and partner there is no reason that everyone cannot have the sex life that they truly desire. To create a place to discuss the intimates of sex. Let’s be frank, we’re all grown. We speak everything into existence over our lives EXCEPT for sex. Sexual Essentials is here to educate and stimulate your sexual desires into fruition. The goal is to become comfortable with sexuality, not just portions of it, but all of it because no one has ever desired to have subpar sex. #SorryButNotSorry

Listener Submitted Questions

Why do women tend to hide their masturbation tendencies or their interest from porn?

What are signs that your partner enjoys the sex as much as you do?

Best positions for g-spot stimulation?

How can I squirt? Any tips?

What are some tricks to avoid locked jaw during oral?

How many times a week is a healthy amount to have sex?

Is sucking Toes ok?

Can you really get sick from eating ass?

This week we are joined by Juwan and Pitter of Pilot Talk Podcast to talk about the anticipation (if that) around marriage.

Here are the tweets that sparked the topic

Question Game

Do you actually know what you are doing in most situations? or do you just act like you know what you are doing?

How can you describe your legal, legitimate job so it sounds illegal or sketchy?

What is a green flag in someone that makes you think 'they're a good person'?

What is something women have seen in romantic comedies that you wish they would stop expecting you to do in real life?

What insecurities do you often see in women that men couldn’t care less about?

What is something you genuinely do not understand?

What’s one moment where you realized that life isn't that bad?

Your options are: 50 hawks, 10 crocodiles, 3 brown bears, 15 wolves, 1 hunter, 7 cape buffalo, 10,000 rats, 5 gorillas and 4 lions - you must pick 2 that will defend you while the rest are coming to kill you. Which do you pick and why?

There's a room in your house where time doesn't flow. You could stay in there for as long as you could possibly want, and not a second will have passed outside that room. What would you use this room for?

What conspiracy theory, if proven true without a shadow of a doubt, would cause the most chaos in less than 24 hours?
