Blaine: Like that, and then you, like, pass it off.
Blaine: A different kind of suck and blow.
Blaine: Did you purposely drop the card for a girl?

Ashliegh: had thoughts Yeah.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Adam: Because what is it like, as a male, we get boners, so
Ashliegh: We don't get boners, but
Adam: I know that! But like, what is the equivalent in a female?
Adam: You know that, how do you know that you're excited?
Adam: Is it just tingling in your
Ashliegh: stomach?
Ashliegh: It's like a pulsing situation, like
Adam: With your hoo ha?

Adam: Oh my god, the more we know.
Ryan: That's an enlightening episode already.
Adam: Is it true your hoo ha pulse, like pumps?
Adam: It's like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Ashliegh: It's like a heartbeat almost, like a
Blaine: Wow, I didn't know that either.
Blaine: God, I'm almost 40.
Blaine: How do I not know this?
Adam: I didn't know that either! Because I was like, what do you do?
Adam: You don't get a boner, so what do you I have to go ask my
Ryan: mom.
Ryan: Ew!
Ashliegh: Ask
Adam: Cindy,
Blaine: she'll tell you.
Blaine: Mona will tell you.
Blaine: Mona will tell you for sure.
Blaine: That's interesting.
Blaine: Okay, so you've had a few little palpitations.
Blaine: And that's where you were like, okay.
Blaine: So fast forward.
Blaine: You ended up married, when did you guys get married?
Blaine: You're only 32.
Blaine: You were married for
Ashliegh: eight years, right?
Ashliegh: I was with him for 12 years.
Ashliegh: Okay.
Ashliegh: And then married for eight, so like it was like 22 right out.
Ashliegh: Right outta college.
Blaine: Right outta college.
Blaine: Did you meet in college?
Ashliegh: Met in college.
Ashliegh: He was in a fraternity.
Blaine: Were you also in a fraternity?
Blaine: .
Blaine: Ashliegh: I was like such a bro.
Blaine: Like I.
Blaine: I was at that fraternity so much that I was like in the fraternity.
Adam: And you didn't feel any signs that you could have been a lesbian.
Ashliegh: I just was like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be the perfect daughter because like my family was religious and like.
Ryan: Expectations.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Ashliegh: Well, yeah, it's Texas, you know.
Adam: Blame it on the family because they're the ones that are freaking crazy.
Ryan: The family?
Adam: That pushed you into the idea like my parents didn't give a shit.
Adam: My dad was confused, but, you know.
Ashliegh: I'm like a people pleaser, so I like wanted to do the expected
Blaine: But was it really your family, or was it your expectations that you had for yourself for your family?
Blaine: Cause that would be Ryan's and my experience.
Ashliegh: It's a little bit of both, I think.
Ashliegh: Yeah, cause I wanted the like normal life.
Ashliegh: of getting married, having kids at first, and then figured out, I don't think I want kids, and then I was like
Ryan: Did you see other it was other friends, or I guess other people in your community that were like, living that life that was normal?
Ryan: So that's what you thought was, normal in your environment?
Ashliegh: Like, all the girls would, it would be the Pinterest era, we were doing like, their Pinterest wedding, and
Blaine: Oh god, yeah And going to Nashville and wearing white boots for a stupid bachelorette party.
Adam: You were married,
Blaine: did you have any pulsations for women before you got engaged?
Ashliegh: Yeah, there was this one time, so embarrassing, but I went on Craigslist and it was like, women loving women.
Ashliegh: I clicked on it and then like immediately clicked out and was like, no.
Blaine: Ryan and I both were in gay chat rooms back in the day.
Blaine: What the fuck do you think
Adam: I was, on Gilligan's Island every year?
Blaine: I thought you weren't.
Blaine: I didn't think you knew what the internet was.
Adam: We had M4M on AOL.
Adam: That's where I met most of my first friends.
Blaine: Oh, that was just me then.
Blaine: Me and Adam were.
Blaine: Never mind.
Blaine: So we get it.
Blaine: But we didn't click out.
Ashliegh: I clicked out because I was like, oh, this is this is not right.
Ashliegh: Yeah,
Adam: Were you even around for AOL Dial Up?
Ryan: Yeah, I had a little bit of that.
Blaine: I kind of forget how much younger he is.
Blaine: Okay, so while you're married did you have any inklings?
Ashliegh: Eventually, after three years, Cause where were you living?
Ashliegh: We were in Houston and we, I was traveling and we did this survey I think this is what kicked everything off we, he sent me this survey where we both answer sex questions and it was like, would you try a threesome, would you try any, like a hundred questions about sex things, then it would group them together and tell you what you answered and so we both said yes to threesomes and things like that.
Ashliegh: So that's what kicked it off.
Ryan: What initiated doing the survey though?
Ashliegh: Initiated where we were like, oh, like we both this is I don't know, five, six years into marriage.
Ashliegh: And so we were like,
Adam: do you like women?
Ashliegh: We did, and then I was like, oh I think I like women more.
Ashliegh: And once I figured that out after doing that, He, he was not, he was supportive, as in go try it and figure your shit out, but he was not supportive at all.
Adam: Hold the fuck on.
Adam: You mean to tell me you told him, hey, I think that I would like to try something with a woman.
Adam: . Alone.
Adam: And he probably sat there and said, why the fuck did I send her that goddamn questionnaire?
Ashliegh: I don't think he even remembers about that.
Ashliegh: Like I think it was like years before I even got the courage to be like, I like women more.
Adam: So this is what's interesting between gay men and gay women, because gay women, if you're bi, gay, guys don't really look at it and go, holy smokes, like you're gay?
Adam: As if.
Adam: You know, they're like, oh, it's not bad, who cares?
Adam: If a gay guy comes to a woman, who's your girlfriend, and says, Hey, I think I want to suck a dick, she's going to be like, What the fuck are you talking about?
Adam: Do we agree?
Blaine: You're gay.
Ashliegh: Yeah, you're gay.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Ashliegh: Oh, like she wants to have more threesomes.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Adam: Did you guys already have a threesome at that point?
Adam: Yeah.
Adam: Let's get back to that.
Adam: So you guys decided to have a threesome, brought in another girl.
Adam: Where did you find this girl?
Blaine: Ooh, this is juicy.
Ashliegh: I think it was like Bumble or some app.
Ashliegh: I don't know.
Ashliegh: It was like, it's called a unicorn.
Ashliegh: A unicorn?
Ashliegh: A unicorn is like a woman that comes into a couple's.
Blaine: I'm gonna tell you, I think Ashliegh is one of the most informed gay people I know.
Blaine: She comes up with terms I don't even know.
Ryan: The unicorn is only if it's a woman that comes into a opposite sex.
Ashliegh: I think it could be a man too, I guess, but most of the time It's referred to as a woman.
Blaine: So he probably thought he was like really like just winning.
Adam: He's like, yeah, I got two vaginas.
Adam: All right.
Adam: And the next thing you know, he's like,
Blaine: Were you enjoying that moment more?
Ashliegh: I was like, normally it's you know, the girls start.
Ashliegh: And so that's that was the fun part.
Ashliegh: And then, yeah.
Adam: Can you imagine?
Adam: She's making she's silly making out with the girl, and literally he comes in and she's No! And pushes him away.
Adam: Get out of here! Get off!
Ryan: Is that, how did it go?
Ryan: How did it go?
Ryan: Yeah.
Blaine: I'm like, blushing over that situation.
Blaine: I love it.
Blaine: How long was this in your marriage, by the way?
Ashliegh: This was like, I don't know, six years, maybe?
Adam: Oh wait, let me, let me see like this.
Adam: Of course a lesbian waits six years.
Adam: Gay men wait six.
Adam: Weeks.
Adam: And doesn't.
Adam: That's the difference.
Blaine: So like then you just decided to make it like super serious because I, so I had seen Ashliegh like probably six months prior and in my mind she was happily married.
Blaine: We were in, I forgot where, we were in like some Caribbean town and then she was happy and whatever and then.
Ashliegh: I hid it, I hid it well.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Blaine: Yeah, we, we saw each other again in Bimini and then she's like, I've got something to tell you.
Blaine: And I was like, yay, what?
Blaine: And she's like, I'm a lesbian, shocked.
Ashliegh: Everybody else I told was like, yeah, it makes sense.
Adam: Blaine once in his life was speechless.
Blaine: The people in this group that we hang out with, we're like, I'm the only gay, we're the gay ones.
Blaine: Like we're the two gays.
Blaine: There's no other gays.
Ashliegh: There's two other guys.
Ashliegh: Blaine: Yes.
Ashliegh: There's two other guys.
Adam: Is this like your, work...
Blaine: Yeah, it's like a work industry thing that we do.
Blaine: So there's just not a lot of gays.
Blaine: There's a lot of guys, and girls, I would say.
Ashliegh: I think I'm the only lesbian.
Blaine: I think you are the only lesbian that I know so far.
Blaine: There's a maybe, but she's more of like a swinger, so I don't think that's the same.
Blaine: She also tried to get me to sleep with her and my ex boyfriend.
Blaine: Yeah, we've dealt with that one before.
Ryan: Come on, you like it too.
Blaine: I just never thought of it.
Blaine: I don't know why.
Blaine: I mean, looking at you now, I'm like, yeah, you totally seem like a lesbian.
Adam: Did you look like this before?
Ashliegh: No.
Ryan: Did you feel like you were trying to look lesbian, or this is just me becoming me?
Ashliegh: It was just me I hated dresses.
Ashliegh: I wore them because they were, like
Blaine: Yeah, but I never saw you in a dress, really.
Ashliegh: Oh, you did.
Blaine: Did I?
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Ashliegh: I wore dresses all the time.
Ashliegh: I have heels on in that shit.
Ryan: Heels in a dress?
Adam: Pants, a shirt, and shorter hair.
Adam: What doesn't make you look like a lesbian now?
Blaine: You were less masculine back then.
Blaine: I've gotta say everybody says this about me, too.
Blaine: I wasn't as
Adam: Flamboyant?
Adam: Yeah, we always wonder how a woman thought you were straight, but
Blaine: I know, but I do think there is something that unlocks a little bit.
Blaine: Where you get to be your more authentic self.
Adam: It 100 percent does, because you relax.
Adam: You're now sitting in that seat and you can relax and you don't have to put that front on.
Adam: Because even I did it before I was out.
Adam: And I got really scared that I was going to get leaked out towards the end of it when I started to come out.
Adam: Because I was living two separate lives.
Adam: And it's one of those things.
Adam: You just keep that front up.
Adam: So I can see that.
Ashliegh: I was a people pleaser.
Ashliegh: And then now I'm like, I feel uncomfortable not pleasing me.
Ashliegh: Now that's weird to say.
Ashliegh: But
Blaine: What was the moment that said, I'm going to come out because you had a house that you had to sell.
Blaine: I mean, you had like, you had like, you had like a life, like a real life that you had to like split up.
Blaine: This wasn't like a, one of Adam's many breakup.
Ashliegh: We had to sell it cause we were getting divorced.
Ashliegh: But the reason I came out, annoying and sad, but whatever.
Ashliegh: But I, he blackmailed me into coming out.
Ashliegh: Cause he was like, if you don't tell your whole family, I'm going to tell.
Ashliegh: So literally I was like, fuck you.
Ashliegh: I'm going to call everybody.
Ashliegh: I like went down the list and called everybody
Ryan: to go ahead and come out to them.
Ashliegh: Cause he was mad.
Adam: That's sad.
Blaine: But had you been with somebody else or like, did you just decide like, I'm just going to live this life?
Ashliegh: No, I'm just going to go to like fully live how I want to live.
Ashliegh: Cause I was miserable knowing that I was gay.
Adam: Did you cringe every time you had to ride his dick?
Ashliegh: No, no, I mean
Adam: Because every time I had to put my penis in a vagina, I'd be like, oh god, here we go.
Adam: Oh, Jesus.
Ashliegh: This is where it was confusing it was just like, it wasn't, it was like, everybody talks about how it wasn't, it's not The women are like, oh, it's not that great it's not
Adam: But it's also different, because We have, we have to look at, ugh, a vagina.
Blaine: And then let's be honest, Adam's a big old bottom, it's not like that's cute.
Ashliegh: Did you know there's tops and bottoms in lesbian world too?
Adam: We're gonna come back to that.
Adam: But, in lesbian world, I do know this, that they like to put strap ons and go to town, like that's how they do it.
Adam: What's the difference between sitting on a real dick or taking it from a fake dick?
Ashliegh: It's the person.
Ashliegh: Like, it's a man, attached to a man.
Ashliegh: Or attached to a woman, you know?
Ryan: Because you're still like, you're with a woman, she's just using something to please you.
Blaine: And I bet a woman has like, kind of better, like, I don't know, flow.
Blaine: Does that make sense?
Ashliegh: Yeah, I mean, you're definitely going to have way more orgasm.
Ashliegh: I got it.
Adam: Ew!
Blaine: Have y'all ever been to Pilates, the guys?
Adam: No!
Blaine: Ryan, have you done Pilates?
Ryan: No, but I've heard of it.
Adam: Is that like where you like do the swan, like one leg up?
Blaine: No, that's that's yoga.
Blaine: This is like a, there's a reformer thing and you move your legs and there's just a certain amount of muscles you use that like literally women use differently than men.
Blaine: And there would be these huge buff men in the class.
Blaine: They'd be just as weak as me and I would be like, ha ha, and there'd be these like women of all different shapes and sizes and they're just like killing it on these reformer machines , and it's just like something in between the cooter, the hoo ha.
Blaine: It's like, we're like super weak here.
Adam: The Kegels for guys to do the Kegels.
Adam: Like, I'm doing it right now, you don't even know it.
Adam: But, uh,
Blaine: It actually just reminded me to do my Kegels.
Adam: But, but it tightens, and I don't know if this is true or not, but I think it tightens your butt, too.
Adam: No, but it also helps you with your stamina.
Adam: Yes.
Adam: So you can ejaculate on demand.
Ashliegh: I'm learning, too.
Ashliegh: Because, yeah, I thought it was just to make
Blaine: You didn't know that?
Adam: Ryan and Brad are gonna be driving around kegel time! Let's go!
Blaine: Three times a day, 15 inches, so yeah yeah.
Ryan: Squeeze your, squeeze that hole, and
Adam: Think of it as if you're trying to ejaculate without a boner.
Blaine: No, no, no, if you're trying to stop peeing, is what it's supposed to be.
Blaine: Yeah, if you're trying to stop peeing.
Adam: That's the same thing.
Blaine: So that's the, that's that muscle.
Adam: It's the same muscle that we use.
Adam: for ours is they're using for the heart pump of their vagina.
Blaine: Exactly.
Adam: Welcome to sex ed with a lesbian.
Ryan: Can you accidentally like cum or pee while you're in the middle of doing your Kegel exercises?
Blaine: No, but it would keep you, it would keep you from cumming.
Blaine: And it would keep you from peeing.
Adam: Do you get random boners?
Ryan: I mean, I get boners, but then also like one time, it was only one time.
Ryan: But on the leg machine, it was only one time, and it was several years ago.
Blaine: You came on the leg machine?
Blaine: Stop.
Adam: You ejaculated?
Ryan: This is like the motion, and this just got so excited.
Blaine: I'm literally wondering how that would happen.
Adam: I'm just wondering what you do after
Blaine: it.
Blaine: Just get crusty.
Blaine: And I'm sure it would start having a nice little aroma too in the gym.
Blaine: But maybe that might, it might actually attract the guys, like those pheromones.
Blaine: So speaking of pheromones, this is my, I think this is a good transition.
Blaine: So this is my thing on this interesting situation about your husband, and both Adam and I have been with women.
Blaine: Ryan's a platinum gay, so he's never been with women.
Blaine: So he doesn't understand this topic.
Adam: Gold star is if you either been with a woman or came out of a vagina.
Adam: Platinum is you've never been with a woman, you never came out of a vagina.
Blaine: C section.
Adam: Yeah, well you guys could also be platinum.
Ashliegh: Gold star is you've just never been with a man.
Blaine: Because, if you really think about it yeah, there's not as many ways to interact with a vagina as there are as a gay man.
Blaine: Yeah.
Blaine: Ryan was a C section, so he's never touched one, ever.
Blaine: But Adam and I have, and here's my thought on it.
Blaine: It is less about the look, but I hear you, Adam.
Blaine: I think it's more about the pheromones that exist, the sex pheromones.
Blaine: I really, it is repulsive to me as well, but it's not a bad smell.
Blaine: It's just a, it's a scent.
Blaine: And men have the same thing, like I said, you get that musky scent.
Adam: I don't even like the musky scent of a man.
Adam: I need a clean man.
Blaine: He showers.
Blaine: Six times a day.
Blaine: I want to smell like mint or like some nice wonderful oregano or something.
Ashliegh: What if you found the perfect man that was like, I like your musk, don't wear anything.
Adam: I would be like, you're fucking weird.
Adam: You're fucking weird.
Adam: And this will never work because I shower more.
Adam: I wait.
Adam: Oh God.
Ryan: Tell the guy to, I need you to sprinkle this oregano in my hole.
Blaine: You should just have like little essential oil bottles by your bed and just choose your scent.
Blaine: What?
Adam: So, you know, um, the razor that's what is it, the lawnmower razor?
Adam: Oh,
Ryan: like the, the man
Adam: trimmer, groomer thing?
Adam: Yes, they have what's called the crop mops.
Adam: And they smell really good.
Adam: So if you're like running around and you're, you think your balls are going to stink and you're like getting ready to go to a hookup, you take the crop mop and you wipe like your whole like half and it smells amazing.
Blaine: So you mean to tell me you shower three to six times a day and you use a crop mop, a whore bath?
Adam: Like say that like my partner and I were going to go like.
Adam: Throw down real quick.
Adam: And he was like, let's just do it.
Adam: I would run in and I would usually pee and just do a crop mop just so in case of anything, smells So they give you like little packs, they're like little packs, they're like hand wipes.
Adam: So you could literally, if you're like maybe I'll have a hookup tonight, stick it in your pocket.
Blaine: Ashliegh, maybe you should do this too.
Ashliegh: I carry wipes.
Blaine: Oh my god, she's she's got a hoe bag.
Blaine: She's got a hoe bag! We did, by the way, we did talk about your fanny packs the other day on our work call.
Blaine: And is that your hoe bag?
Ashliegh: It's more like a mom bag though.
Ashliegh: It's like I have a charger Tide to go.
Ashliegh: Chap stick.
Ashliegh: Chaffing Creme
Blaine: So you've had some milestones this year.
Blaine: I was there in L.
Blaine: A.
Blaine: with you.
Blaine: So was Ryan, actually, for your first Pride, which, super exciting.
Blaine: And you went to not just one Pride.
Blaine: How many Prides?
Blaine: Four.
Blaine: Which ones did you go to?
Ashliegh: L.
Ashliegh: A., Denver.
Ashliegh: Denver was really fun.
Ashliegh: Where else did I go?
Ashliegh: I didn't go to Houston.
Ashliegh: Somewhere in San Diego?
Ashliegh: I don't even know.
Ashliegh: I don't even remember.
Ashliegh: There was too many.
Ashliegh: I went to so many parties.
Ashliegh: I went to random satellite parties, too.
Ashliegh: That wasn't the actual Pride.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Blaine: So this year, when we were complaining about not doing Pride, she was just all over the country doing Pride.
Blaine: Meeting lesbians.
Blaine: And this trip to Dallas, because you're in Dallas now you met a girl on a date that she met at Denver Pride.
Ashliegh: Yeah, we met at a party that was you do, you probably don't watch the queer ultimatum, but it was a next Netflix show.
Ashliegh: It was all lesbians.
Adam: Nope, surely would not watch that.
Ashliegh: And there was two of the stars that like showed up the party to pay and like I met this girl who was very wasted, but we just made out and then she's from the house, so I met up with her.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Ashliegh: So this is the question I had.
Ashliegh: And we talked about this for a second.
Ashliegh: So like, how do you meet girls?
Ashliegh: Cause we have Grindr's Scruff.
Ashliegh: We have endless dating apps.
Adam: We have so much.
Adam: But yeah, that's the thing, because lesbians, you get the shaft.
Adam: If I, and I had this conversation with my employee the other day, is I really think the food chain of command is literally gay men, then it's women, then it's straight men, and then the lesbians get the shaft of it all!
Blaine: Okay, but I have a theory.
Blaine: So what's the lesbian app you use?
Ashliegh: Um, there's only one that I know of.
Ashliegh: It's called Her.
Ashliegh: I hate it.
Ashliegh: It's like, the notifications go wild and I just ignore it.
Adam: They're coming after you.
Ashliegh: Oh, you should get this.
Ashliegh: You should pay for this.
Ashliegh: It's like, not real ones.
Ashliegh: Oh, not like girls.
Ashliegh: No, no.
Ashliegh: So I like Hinge or Bumble.
Blaine: I get why this is, though.
Blaine: And if you think about it, there's a reason.
Blaine: It's because I think that you guys Do you girls, yeah, sorry, you gals, I don't want to say gals, you gals, like you meet a girl and you end up in a relationship quickly.
Blaine: Yeah, like Hinge's thing, it's like the app that's meant to be deleted, like that's their slogan, but that's not really true, guys are players.
Blaine: So when you have men in the mix, I really think there's just a lot of swiping happened in there.
Blaine: And then for us gay men, we have Grindr.
Blaine: You could be in a relationship and still hooking up.
Blaine: The couples are, the guys themselves are, without their partner.
Blaine: So but then the girls don't do that.
Blaine: You guys get jealous.
Ashliegh: Yeah.
Ashliegh: Yeah, I don't U Haul though.
Ashliegh: I know people who U Haul.
Blaine: Um.
Ashliegh: Okay, I accidentally.
Ashliegh: I didn't U Haul.
Ashliegh: I met this girl.
Ashliegh: There was no girl.
Blaine: It's only been, let's just, let's define the timeline.
Blaine: It has been 8 months since you came out.
Blaine: I met her on Hinge.
Blaine: And it was like I don't know, March, April.
Blaine: And I really liked her.
Blaine: So we like started talking and I said, Hey, I'm like a digital nomad.
Blaine: So stupid to say, but I just travel and I'll see you when I'm in Houston, and ended up being a lot more than what I thought it would be.
Blaine: And then we just we both were like, we don't want to date.
Blaine: We're just going to be like friends with benefits.
Blaine: But then we stopped talking to everyone else.
Blaine: And it turned into a "situationship"
Ryan: turned into what?
Ashliegh: In between dating and a friends with benefits.
Ashliegh: We're like, you're saying like, we're exclusive,
Ryan: but it is, but it's not said.
Blaine: And for example, she was going to a bar with this girl and accidentally invited this other girl that she was dating, right?
