Today Ellen is answering a question from Instagram:

My husband really resists oral, but sex has been painful for me. He's really rough. I spoke up and there's been no change.

As you can see there are a lot of facets to this question and we cover it all in this episode!

In this week's episode Kathleen and Ellen talk about some common elements of lingerie. They discuss both personal preferences as well as how certain elements can fit well for certain body types or seasons of life (like postpartum or pregnant bodies!)

We talk through some pieces specifically on the Mentionables website. While we reference specific pieces the conversation is tailored to style elements that you might notice in any lingerie!
