149: Shamelessly Sexy: Unattached Sex, Feeder Porn & Why Writing About Sex Makes You Better in Bed: Inside The Intimacy Journal with Tash Doherty
Episode Description
This week, Vee and Elle sit down with Tash Doherty — a British-Irish-American writer, creator of Misseducated (the blog and podcast helping the world become shamelessly sexy), and author of These Perfectly Careless Things, her spicy coming-of-age debut novel. She is a bold, candid, and deeply reflective sexuality writer who holds nothing back. We discuss Tash’s latest project, The Intimacy Journal, which invites readers into deeper erotic self-reflection through writing.
They also wander into taboo territory like:
- vibrators in one-night stands
- the shame around “needing” toys
- fatphobia, feeder porn, and being praised for the parts of you you’ve been taught to hate
- being “born-again monogamous” versus non-monogamous and craving freedom
- whether shameless sexuality is about saying yes more, saying no more, or adding nuance instead of binary answers
By the end, this episode feels like a permission slip: to write about your sex life, to admit your kinks (even the ones you’d never act out), to take up space in your pleasure, and to use tools like The Intimacy Journal to get better at sex.
