SEX SEX SEX SEX SEX SEX SEX ;) A sex and relationship podcast by those least qualified to host it! (it's a comedy podcast about asexuality)

[everysixthsec]

It’s America Day so you knooooow this episode is going to be real horny. It’s a short ep what with the holiday and how bad we are at podcasting, but we talk about the true meaning of the holiday - feeling excluded by culture because of how Not Straight we are. Also, we don’t understand the fascination with sex, we don’t get why sex is a good thing to see with your eyes, and we can’t conceive of how sex is somehow a thing that is good.

Whoa hey yup I don’t run this blog very good hoooooboy whoooops

Which is to say, here’s the most recent episode! Sorry I didn’t post 10 or 11, 10 is actually great, and 11 is pride themed, but you know what, here’s the unedited short one from July 4th because it’s recent and I’m trash. We try out our sexy voices, that’s pretty fun, if your definition of fun is very particular.

It's a musical extravaganza to welcome you back this week! Be prepared for lots of music and dancing, although not usually concurrently. Also, we come up with two tangible albeit terrible pieces of actual advice, continue our trend of hot-to-the-minute pop culture references, and flirt with copyright violations.

Whoa whoops I have fallen out of the habit of posting these on here which defeats the purpose of having social media soooooo

anyway, this episode exists and it’s here and you can listen to it! What service! It’s weird because we recorded it in the same room together and that’s also (at least part of why) it sounds bad, and why we spend time just doing actual dancing on this, an auditory-only medium.

[everysixthsec]

whooooops sorry buds we skipped an episode and I didn’t even mention here that that was happening or why or that we put up a little 5 minutes of apology and explanation

I’m pretty bad at running social media sorry my dudes

anyway the video is a teaser for what is to come this Wednesday now that we’re back, baby!

It’s time to discuss asexuality in media, which is to say, we pitch like 7 of our own television shows, plus one app. #WelcomeToAmerica Also, we put literally every Kyle on blast, struggle to distinguish white dudes from other white dudes, and talk about porn in a completely normal and knowledgeable way.

Guys. Guys? Guys. This one is actually like, kind of good! It seems like an actual podcast there for a little bit! And Marina offers opinions of things she hasn’t watched but read about like a real member of the internet 2k18! You should give it a listen!

You could even listen on iTunes...

Six is the sex number! Rhodes’ friend, you are right! Thanks for listening! This week, we share stories of our growing up that, in hindsight, are blaring neon signs of ‘You Are Asexual, Dude!’ Also, we discover most Thunderdome stress-packed X-Treme teen way to teach your son to drive, razz a movie we haven’t seen like the thoughtful, upstanding critics we are, and get science-y on y’all with boner stats and jello physics.

This one is actually probably a not bad one to listen to as an intro, to the pod or the concept. It runs long because I’m a bad editor who let us talk about Star Trek Enterprise, but we mainly share some stories about growing up ace. Which is to say, just not understanding a lot of things about what most folks are talking about when it comes to sex and dating. We think we understand it better now?

Or check it out on iTunes if that’s more your jam

Asexual men exist and they are not broken

Ace men you are perfect and I hope you all have a great day

[redsatinsheets]

feminism never taught me to hate men but it did help me realize that i shouldn’t prioritize them over women & it turns out that alot of men consider that to be hatred lmao.

So if you were in a room with two prisoners; a man and a woman, you’d never met, and the gender neutral soldier with the big gun told you to kill one of them, you’d automatically shoot the man?

[ozten-deactivated20171022]

tag yourselves I’m the gender neutral soldier

[monitorlizardappreciator]

i cannot tell you how many times this EXACT situation has happened to me

[everysixthsec]

Rhodes and Marina are pancakes, anyway. Chances are, if you are listening to this, you are too, but maybe you are a water droplet. I don’t know your life. In this episode, we explore the purest form of human connection - ranting in mutual agreement that someone else’s opinion is wrong, like a relay race of supportive shouting. Also, we conduct not one but two deep dives in 2000s era television, congratulate Rhodes on his good math joke, and revel in the concept of genetically modified sexy door ladies.

This episode is a good one for those times when someone has been saying some crazy shit to you. It’s communal yelling about weird bullshit that a grown-up fratboy spouted at Rhodes and I this weekend, and we welcome you to join in on the screeching. ‘People aren’t inanimate objects though, they are people, how is this hard to understand?!?!?!?!!’

Or listen on iTunes if you like that better.

Hi there! Hope you’re well. I um, have sort of a question or like a comment or something. I don’t know. Ive been coming to realize that i might be asexual or it might be demisexual. But i just don’t know. I don’t know how to tell. I haven’t been with anyone sexually in about five years now. But i just haven’t wanted to. I dont know how to go about this. Help. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi love!

First off, congrats! I know it can be scary to figure something out about yourself, but. it’s also exciting. 

Now, for your question: I don’t know if there’s anything you need to do differently, you seem like you’re on the right track! If you haven’t wanted to have sex in five years and it’s still not appealing, you very well might be asexual or Demisexual and that’s totally fine! You do’t need to change our behavior, there isn’t some special text you can take to see if you REALLY are. The label can help you come to peace with or accept your identity, but if it feels scary or like too much pressure, you don’t have to use it yet either. You can simply be. 

What might be helpful is following some ace or Demi specific blogs to connect to other people like you/ask questions/better understand your identity if that’s what you’re looking for.Good luck angel!

Hey I feel kind of weird and self-promote-y doing this, but, helping communicate to questioning folks was a main reason for making this podcast, so…

This is totes the blog of an asexuality podcast! Me and my brother host it; we both identify as demi, but we try to talk about what that means for us and how we fit into the world as ace people (I say try to because we tangent a lot a lot. It’s primarily a fun time with bad jokes but our topics at least start in asexuality). Giving it a listen could maybe help you understand what it means for others and then help you think about where you identify. So maybe you could check that out. And if you aren’t into ours, there are other ones out there that you might enjoy instead.

I don’t know that this particular anon will see this, but if you do, you can totally reach out if you want to and I’ll be as helpful as I can. Same for anybody out here wanting to talk about asexuality stuff - I can at least listen and be there for you. I know it can be rough. The hope is that this pod can help. It’s going to be alright; I have a feeling you are amazing 💖💫💜💖💫💜

shout out to the ace and aro sapphic girls out there. no matter how you love women, it is radical and good.

“it’s just a phase” i mean the moon has phases but it’s still literally always the moon. just because the moon’s doing something different today doesn’t mean it was lying about being the moon yesterday

[clarke-griffin-archive]

#queer people are celestial bodies is what i’m saying

[acearoculture]

every time a writer talks about their character being ace, they always say it like “they’re just more interested in this other thing” (i.e. Charlie Weasley is more interested in dragons, Jughead is more interested in food) so reblog this and put what your Ace Thing™ is in the tags

[aspec-for-awesome]

Demisexuality is real and valid. Demisexuality is not the average standard for every person, people who say that are wrong and obviously are not demisexual. Demisexuality is different than being allosexual. I love every single demisexual out there reading this. I hope you all have a magnificent day 💜

How do I make my girl wet?

In case you needed something to make your day better. Watch all these doggos getting stuck in snow. 15/10 for all puppers and doggos

Sexuality. It's a little more fun than death. Frankly, this one comes out as a bit of a bummer as we talk about labels and fitting (or not fitting) into the LBGT community. We get real about some of the difficulties of being ace. Also, we practice our communicitation skills, make some totally audible hand-gesture based jokes, and continue to be unrelentingly asexual by assuming that everyone agrees that having less people wanting to sex you is a good thing.

Do you have lots of feelings about whether asexual spectrum folks belong in the LGBT community? Don’t tell me about them unless they are in the affirmative because I don’t need that negativity in my life!

This time we get into some deeper issues and address some of the difficulties and fears aces can face out there, but then we got back on track talking about dumb stuff at the end. But, fair warning, it does contain some discussion of ~discourse~ before the return to sophomoric sex humor.
