Note to listeners: This is a re-release from the original Stone Butch Disco pod, with a little editing :)
[An after-the-fact heads up! My (Rachel, your host's) "NSFW" content warning arrives too late in this episode to halt your progression into explicit sex talk! This probably also proves the futility of SBD content warnings.]
Have you ever sat through horrendous "lesbian porn"? Boring? Male gaze-y? Distractingly inauthentic noises? If so, this episode's for you. Maribel and Jenny grace Sam and Rachel with their wisdom on the techniques and technology to avoid any situation remotely akin to Pornhub's "lesbian" (there aren't enough air quotes in the world) wing.
We also talk media representation and how, perhaps by some coincidence, male-owned media companies don't seem interested in showing a male-passing female butch lesbian strapping a feminine female woman where both partners are into it and loving life.
