    • Discussing the joys of digital subscriptions and personal experiencesEngaging digital content leads to consistent enjoyment. Avoid certain professions for dating based on past experiences, and look forward to the anticipation of a new baby's arrival.

      The convenience of accessing content, such as a digital newspaper subscription, can lead to consistent engagement and enjoyment. Another key point discussed was the advice against dating certain professions, specifically bartenders, based on past experiences. Additionally, the excitement of expecting a baby was shared, with the anticipation of finding out the gender and planning for the future. The show's success was also acknowledged, with the recent ranking in iTunes. Overall, the conversation covered various topics, from relationship advice to personal experiences and current events.

    • New product Flex Discs for mess-free period sexFlex Discs are internal discs that prevent leaks during period sex, gaining popularity among men and women, and reducing hassle of dealing with pads or tampons.

      There is a new product called Flex Discs aimed at making sex during a woman's period more convenient and less messy. These discs are worn internally during intercourse to prevent leaks and stains, allowing couples to enjoy sex without the hassle of dealing with pads or tampons. The product has gained popularity among both men and women, with 25% of trial sign-ups coming from men. While some people may find period sex appealing, others may prefer to avoid it due to discomfort or messiness. The Flex Discs offer a solution for those who want to have sex during their period but don't want the mess. Additionally, a recent study suggests that men who exhibit "manspreading" behavior (spreading their legs wide) are perceived as more attractive during online dating.

    • Open body language makes us more appealingExpansive posture and open body language signal dominance and approachability, while closed body language can be perceived as defensive and unapproachable. Preparation and communication can help make sensitive topics positive.

      Our body language, including open postures like "manspreading," can significantly impact how attractive we appear to potential partners. A study suggests that an expansive posture, which takes up more space, is perceived as dominant and open, making us more appealing. Conversely, closed body language can be perceived as defensive and unapproachable. Additionally, discussing sensitive topics like virginity and sex can be anxiety-inducing, but preparation and communication can help make the experience positive for both parties. So, maintaining an open posture and approaching sensitive topics with confidence and openness can enhance our dating experiences.

    • Myth of the Hymen as an Indicator of VirginityThe hymen is not a reliable indicator of virginity as it can tear or rupture from various activities, and the focus should be on respect, consent, and open communication during sexual experiences.

      The hymen, a small fold of mucus tissue partially covering a woman's vaginal opening, is not an accurate indicator of virginity. Contrary to popular belief, the hymen does not always tear or bleed during sexual intercourse, and girls may experience its rupture from various activities long before losing their virginity. Furthermore, the language surrounding virginity, such as "losing it" or "giving it away," can be misleading and perpetuate harmful stereotypes. It's essential to remember that every individual's sexual experiences are unique and should be approached with respect, consent, and open communication. Additionally, it's important to note that the first sexual experience may not involve bleeding or any significant physical signs, and the focus should be on the emotional and psychological aspects of the encounter.

    • Feeling Comfortable and Trusting: The Keys to a Good ExperienceTrust and comfort are essential for having a good experience, whether it's trying a new product or having sex. Finding solutions that fit into one's health goals while still tasting good can make life's pleasures more enjoyable.

      Having a good experience, whether it's sex or trying a new product, is all about feeling comfortable and trusting the person or thing involved. The speaker shared a story about an embarrassing situation where they had sex for the first time in a water bed without telling their brother, leading to an awkward discovery. They also talked about their love for a low-carb bread called Hero Bread, which has helped them enjoy their favorite bready delights without the guilt. The speaker emphasized the importance of finding products that fit into one's health goals while still tasting good. They also shared their positive experience with Hero Bread, praising its texture and nutritional benefits. Overall, the speaker's story highlights the importance of trust, comfort, and finding solutions that make life's pleasures more enjoyable.

    • Losing virginity: prioritize safety, respect, and comfortPrioritize safety, respect, and comfort when losing virginity. Be honest and upfront with your partner, and choose someone you have feelings for.

      When it comes to losing your virginity, it's important to prioritize feeling safe, respected, and comfortable with your partner. Don't rush into it with someone who may judge or make you feel bad about your sexual history. When the time comes, be honest and upfront about your virginity, keeping it light and without apology. Remember, it's a personal decision and there's no need to feel ashamed if it's on your terms. Ultimately, the first time should be with someone you have feelings for and it holds meaning for you, rather than just a box to check off.

    • Young age sexual encounters can impact emotional and psychological wellbeingExperiencing sexual encounters at a young age, especially if non-consensual or unhealthy, can negatively affect emotional and psychological wellbeing, potentially contributing to issues like anxiety and trust issues in relationships.

      Experiencing sexual encounters at a young age, especially if they are not consensual or healthy, can have lasting negative effects on an individual's emotional and psychological wellbeing. The speaker in this conversation shared his experience of having multiple sexual encounters with an older woman starting when he was just 14 years old. While he initially saw it as a cool experience, he now recognizes that it likely contributed to his current issues, including anxiety and trust issues in relationships. The woman in question was problematic, drinking and driving with him in the car while under the influence, and pressuring him into sexual encounters. The speaker also mentioned that she lied to his school, claiming to be his mother, and picked him up while drunk with a 12-pack of beer in the back seat. These experiences left him feeling violated and confused, and he wishes he had waited for a more meaningful and consensual relationship before losing his virginity. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of waiting for a healthy and consensual sexual relationship, and recognizing that past experiences can have long-term impacts on one's emotional and psychological health.

    • Preparing for First Time SexCommunicate openly, focus on connection, learn about your body, wait until ready, and approach with a positive attitude.

      The first time having sex can be an awkward and uncomfortable experience, and it's important to be prepared both physically and emotionally. It's essential to communicate openly with your partner about your feelings and expectations, and to remember that everyone's experience is unique. Don't compare your experience to unrealistic expectations set by media or societal norms. Take your time to learn about your own body and what feels good for you. Remember, there's no rush to have sex, and it's important to wait until you feel ready and safe. When you do have sex, focus on the connection with your partner and the experience itself, rather than performance or external expectations. And if you're a virgin, consider telling your partner beforehand to avoid any potential embarrassment or misunderstandings. Ultimately, the most important thing is to approach sex with a positive attitude, an open mind, and a willingness to learn and grow.

    • Navigating life's uncomfortable situationsPeople use coping mechanisms like faking confidence or preparing for sexual experiences. Being present, communicative, and consensual are key.

      People use various psychological coping mechanisms to navigate through life, including faking confidence or even death in uncomfortable situations. The discussion also touched upon the topic of sexual experiences, with some people preferring to be prepared and aware of their own bodies before losing their virginity, while others might have experienced it under the influence. The importance of being mentally and physically present during such experiences was emphasized, as well as the significance of open communication and consent between partners. Overall, the conversation highlighted the importance of being true to oneself and being mindful of one's actions and decisions.

    • Story of a woman's unprepared first timeBe prepared, communicate openly, and prioritize safety for comfortable and protected sexual experiences.

      Communication and preparation are key when it comes to sexual health and experiences. A story was shared about a woman's experience with her boyfriend not bringing condoms during their first time having sex, leading them to go to McDonald's instead. This incident highlights the importance of being prepared and open about sexual health. The discussion also emphasized the importance of consent, taking things slow, and using lubricant to ensure comfort and pleasure. It's important to remember that STDs and unintended pregnancies can happen to anyone, regardless of their experience level or assurances from their partner. So, always prioritize safety and open communication to make sure both parties are comfortable and protected.

    • Reasons for keeping secrets from friendsPeople keep secrets due to past traumas, fear of rejection, or uncertainty about feelings. Trust, communication, and confirmation are essential to maintain friendships and potentially develop romantic relationships.

      People keep secrets from their friends for various reasons, including embarrassment or fear of rejection. A person may have had a traumatic experience in their past that they didn't share with their friends, even decades later. In another situation, a person may be unsure of another person's feelings and may be hesitant to pursue a relationship. It's important to trust your instincts and communicate openly with others, but also to respect their privacy and feelings. People grow and change over time, and it's possible for friendships to evolve into romantic relationships. However, it's crucial to ensure that both parties are on the same page before making a move to avoid getting hurt. Confirmation and clear communication are key in these situations.

    • Understanding Intentions in RelationshipsSmall gestures can hold significant meaning for one person but not the other. Approach misunderstandings with humor, acknowledge and address fear of rejection, and be open and honest to build trust and strengthen connections.

      Communication is key in understanding the intentions behind actions during the early stages of a relationship. The discussion highlights how small gestures, such as holding hands or making eye contact, can hold significant meaning for one person but may not register the same way for the other. To navigate this, it's essential to approach these situations with humor and lightheartedness, making it easier to address any potential misunderstandings. Additionally, people may be hesitant to make a move due to fear of rejection, so acknowledging and addressing these feelings can help build trust and strengthen the connection between two individuals. Lastly, being open and honest about personal experiences and feelings can help foster a deeper understanding and provide guidance for those going through similar situations.

    • Sharing Personal Information About VirginityConsider timing and reactions when sharing personal info about virginity. Avoid text/email, wait for in-person comfort. Be mindful of potential objectification.

      When it comes to sharing personal information, such as being a virgin, it's important to consider the timing and the potential reactions of the other person. The speaker in this conversation advises against breaking the news through text or email, and suggests waiting until you're in person and comfortable to share. They also caution against the possibility of the other person fixating on the fact that you're a virgin and potentially objectifying you for it. In a different context, the conversation also touched on the topic of purchasing sex toys for first-time use, with recommendations for quiet and discreet options such as the Fun Factory Flash and the We-Vibe Tango. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of being thoughtful and considerate when sharing personal information and making purchases related to intimacy.

    • Discover Two Movies Recommended by Sex with EmilyListeners can save on sponsors' products, including two movie recommendations: 'Demolition' and 'Hardcore Henry'.

      The podcast "Sex with Emily" offers listeners access to various savings on sponsors' products, all of which have been personally tried and approved by the host. During this episode, Emily highlighted two movies worth checking out: "Demolition," a heavy yet hilarious film about a man dealing with the loss of his wife, and "Hardcore Henry," an innovative movie filmed entirely from a first-person perspective.
