On this episode of F*ck Wellness, Lara, Mallory, and Makena talk about masturbation, vibrators, and porn. They unpack the research around each area, describe their own experiences with each, and how we can navigate the sexual wellness industry while still remaining aligned with our values (and ethics!). We HIGHLY recommend listening to our five episodes from March on sexuality if you loved this episode and want more content like it.
