Skirt Club is an underground community for girls who occasionally like to play with girls. It was set up in 2014 by Geneviève LeJeune, who had attended "play parties" with a male ex. She soon realised she was doing things for his pleasure, not her own. So she decided to make Skirt Club for ladies only.

It hosts a private members network for the curious kind; both in mind and sexuality. Skirt Club promotes glamour; free-flowing champagne, burlesque performers and…much more. Genevieve joins Jana on the podcast today to explain why so many women want to get involved!
