How To Have Feminist Sex with Flo Perry

This week, Hannah is joined by writer and illustrator Flo Perry, who’s created the book ‘How To Have Feminist Sex’. Flo shares more about the process of making the book, and why she wants women to talk more about seeing sex as a form of joy. Her and Hannah chat about the importance of not judging other people’s kinks, and talking about your masturbation fantasies with your partner. Flo shares her coming out process, including the experience of coming out as a lesbian as a teenager, and then having since come out as bisexual. Finally, they talk about Flo’s club night for queer women & non binary people, and why it’s important to have these spaces.
