The Sex Wrap
The Sex Wrap is a sexual health Podcast that was created to help fill the gaping hole in sexuality education. They answer listeners questions each week (or yours today) – typically questions that people are too afraid to ask at home, too embarrassed to ask at school, or too hard to ask their partners. The Sex Wrap is produced by The Podglomerate.

We talk through who it's for (hint: way more people than you think!), why people still don't talk about it, and what the new injectable options actually mean for your sex life.

This week on The Sex Wrap, we’re unpacking negging, the backhanded compliment that’s supposed to spark attraction but often just seeds insecurity.
