Summary

We're joined by asexuality activist Yasmin Benoit and she's breaking down being asexual (as well as aromantic) and discussing/dispelling myths surrounding sex drive, masturbation, being in relationships, and more. We're also chatting about the spectrum of asexuality, how to talk about it with friends and family, dating, and lack of representation in the media. And we're sharing our and our listeners' non-sexual turn-ons, plus catching up on something nice Rayna did for her body and a DM slide Ashley received. Hope you enjoy!
