I got my little drink. Perfect. What's in there? It looks like water. Almost 10 am. I can have a drink. 10 am, uh-huh, 9.51.
Speaker 1:There's a White Claw, which I don't really like. White Claws I don't either, but I didn't want to open the whole bottle of Prosecco. I mean I would probably drink it all. But If you had to choose between the two, are you team white claw or team truly? I think they all taste the same. They're all gross, really. I think truly is so much better. Yeah, I'd rather have a memo any day. Well, yeah, you know, you only can pick between the two. No, I have to have me.
Speaker 1:I never, I mean, we never buy those. Those are not something that we ever ever have in our house. We have hard alcohol or champagne or wine. I think mostly White Claws and Trulies are for white people, are they? Yeah, they're just like little sultrs. Yeah, just a little watered down.
Speaker 1:I thought they were just like girl drinks. Well, I mean, yeah, I guess. Yeah, white people, you know, because, like Christina always brings, like Sojis and like what do they call it? Soju or soju? Yeah, soju, soju, soju, she's telling us our producer. Or she brings like a oh, we have sake. Yeah, that's true, you do. Yeah, yeah, not, I'll just bring the Trulies. Yeah, you don't ever bring those. No, I would never. I was like what you bring? Pepsi, pepsi, yeah, I do, I don't even bring it, you just get it. Yeah, you just have it for me Because you don't really drink. I mean, usually if people don't drink, they just drink the La Croix's at our house. Yeah, and I don't even like La Croix's, yeah. So then, like you have to have Pepsi, you're always like I got your Pepsi, britt, go get her a Pepsi. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, my God, I like to try to be a good host.
Speaker 1:Welcome to Maximalist Life. It's weird that you're staring at me. I am just sitting here across the table. We're doing things a little different today. Okay, yeah, we are. We didn't even give our intro before we started our conversation, but I kind of liked it that way. Yeah, I think it's better. Yeah, it's also serious, serious. I'm Tika and I'm Brianna. We're the host of maximal slides.
Speaker 1:Oh good, is that a scissor? Lesbians, lesbians for life. I just made that up right now. She went you have to go lesbians for life and then scissor it. I don't know, I just came up with that Because I'm such a lesbian the lesbians they cut two fingers off, right, so they can finger jam there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I mean that would make sense. I don't know which ones of these two. Christina, our producer, she Googled it. She's a lesbian, so she'll tell you.
Speaker 1:No, but one time I did like my nails had broke. I had a couple broken and to me it just goes mom, what in the lesbian nails do you have going on? And I go what do you mean? And then that's how I found out that lesbians have like that is funny short nails. I would just keep them all short. I can't just have two. It's a style. No, I don't want it, okay? Um, I have a question for you. No, so this is a little controversial, okay, because today's a spicy episode. Spicy, spicy, yeah, which people say they've been liking the spicy. They have been saying that and we have actually had a lot of people saying that they are discussing the topics on the spicy wins or even listening to the episodes with their spouses. Yesterday I had a.
Speaker 1:We had someone in here I never like to name names on the pod, so it's not in here that she was doing something with us as like a little collab and she was like I listened to my husband on the way they were having a date night and they listened to it in the car and she said it like brings up a lot of things. And she was like kind of like, starts off like a conversation, yeah, and it's a little. Yeah, she texted me about it too. Yeah, I was like, yeah, I really like to hear that. That's pretty cool, and I appreciate that men like to hear our nonsense. I don't know if they like to. They appreciate that they put up with it. Yeah, bullshit, they're. What are these two bitches talking about? Yeah, and then if they don't like what we're talking about or what like we're saying, it's okay, because, like, they don't know us and so they could just talk shit and their wife could be like, oh, I like to start the conversation, though, by you know, it gives you a little in to. I think that's such a fun way to do it, like listening on your way to a date. Yeah, that's cute, yeah.
Speaker 1:So my question for you and to all of our listeners okay, do you agree that watching porn is cheating? No, I don't agree that watching porn is cheating. No, I don't agree that watching porn is cheating. Um, I don't know why. I don't really have a good answer for you. I just I don't know. I just don't think. I think that if it's like anything else or you become addicted to it, then it's a problem. But if they're just watching it, I don't care if you lust over that stupid girl, I don't think it is cheating either, and I and I think of it in this way. So to me there's physical cheating and there's emotional cheating.
Speaker 1:There's like these different types of cheating that you do with someone that you know or like someone kind of like in real life. Watching porn to me is the same as like lusting over a celebrity, like you don't know this person, you'll never meet them, you you'll never have any physical or emotional. It's a fictional character. Yeah, it could be. I could just be like jacking off my book boyfriend. Yeah, I mean, that's the kind of. I think that might be. Why, too, like you're jacking off, just jacking it off. You're jacking your clit off. Um, yeah, I think the same. Like, well then, I can't read my little porn books. Yeah, to me, that it's. That's what it is to me. I mean, and I, and yeah, I mean some people would disagree with what we're saying.
Speaker 1:And so, yeah, I'm just wondering. Uh, you know, some people think that, or and maybe they wouldn't use the word cheating, but they would say that it's inappropriate. It's inappropriate or it's like disrespectful, or it's something like it's shocking to them to think that their spouse would watch these videos. Or uh, drew was watching a show where, uh, I can't remember what it's called, but um, they were. The guy was watching porn in the bed, jacking off with his spouse in the bed with him. Was she sleeping? I don't know if she was sleeping or what. I think so I don't, you know. And then we were like that's inappropriate.
Speaker 1:Hmm, because in a sense, like, why aren't we just doing things together? You're just like doing this for yourself. She's like go for it whatever. Yeah, I guess it's not really, it's just that's so weird, that's a weird situation. She didn't know, I think it's a little weird. But like, yeah, it's a little weird, yeah, that is weird. I don't know if I love that. Yeah, like it's like a weird situation. Like you're just like watching porn, jacking off. We're just like so I'm reading my book, no, or like I'm watching a show and then you just have your computer and then you just turn on porn and start jacking off. Well, yeah, that's so weird, that's weird. Yeah, yeah, or I wake up to you watching porn and jacking off Kind of weird.
Speaker 1:Don't do that in front of me. Yeah, seems like a private moment, right, yeah, that's just, that's a weird thing. Yeah, weird way to go about it. Yeah, exactly, but there is such thing as mutual masturbation, yeah, and that's different. When we're both involved in something, it's very different.
Speaker 1:But I think what we're talking about is singular. That's weird, right, don't be. Don't, just don't be weird, please, although I like weird people, but not that level of weird. Yeah, yeah, I really like weird people, but I don't want anyone to masturbate in front of me. No, I mean, you want to do a couple strokes? If you want to do a couple strokes, you like, what are we doing? You're just like jacking off in front of me. He's like you don't need to be here. Yeah, what? Why aren't we doing things together? It doesn't make any sense. That literally makes no sense. The whole point is for us to pleasure each other. Yeah, I mean, it's fine to masturbate Like, but like together. Right, yeah, it's okay. Yeah, yeah, okay. So I'm interested. Anyone listening? Tell us, tell us your thoughts, shoot us a dm on our instagram and let us know what you think, because I am so interested to hear.
Speaker 1:Yeah, um, today we wanted to talk about sex myths. So there's a lot of myths about about sex, and so we wanted to kind of debunk some of these. Okay, first one also I just have to tell anyone listening if you could see our notes, like our outline for some of our episodes, like, right now I just have bullet pointed loose mom puss, small dicks. Sex isn't like porn. The bullet points are hilarious. Yeah, um, really two words just to remind us, because we can't be reading paragraphs while we're like up here, but we need sometimes a reminder of, like, this is what we want to talk about. You know when we outline it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, our first one is the myth that once you have a baby vaginally, do a vaginal birth, you're loose. Yeah, so I mean so much that they had like the husband stitch, right, isn't that what they call it? What I never read, yeah, where doctors used to do one extra stitch after you have the baby. It's called the husband stitch. I thought you said have the husband stitch? No, and I was like, wow, they're just just gonna stitch his dick hole right on. Yeah, close it up, husband stitch to make it a little bit tighter for him. Oh, that's what they called it. That's kind of them, yeah, so much just for the men again. Yeah, yeah, that's typical.
Speaker 1:We had to go through the pain of an extra stitch in our badge for you, which I remember it being very painful. I do, oh, I remember Uh-huh, but also I had no drugs, so I don't know, I just don't remember the stitching being like such a painful thing that you know. I remember being like Afterwards yeah, I mean, when you're going to pee and it fucking burns because you got the stitch, you know, yeah, and they got to put the water on you. You squeeze and it fucking burns because you got the stitch. You know, yeah, they gotta put the water on you. You squeeze a little water, yeah, I just went through this whole traumatic experience and like I thought it was over and now you have to put a needle in my vagina, or how about?
Speaker 1:You thought you were done, you have to give birth to the placenta, or yeah, I see, I don't remember that part. I just remember afterwards they massaged your whatever. How to? I don't know what it, I don't know, they're massaging your uterus. And I was like I want to punch the lady. But yeah, I don't think. Uh, yeah, so that is a a myth that you are loose after having kids. That is not true. Yeah, um, you have to remember that vaginas stretch out for childbirth and then they contract back together and you have to think about it. Like I saw this thing. Okay, I saw this like hilarious.
Speaker 1:It was like a meme talking and it was talking about this topic and then it it showed like a, like a penis. I was like, think about, because they say, like after childbirth, or like, if you had a lot of sex, that's the other thing. Like, if you had sex with guys with huge dicks, you'll be looser. Or like, oh, if you're such a slut, you'll be really loose. Like, no, they're, like that's so ridiculous. And they were like, think about the opposite. What if you're a guy?
Speaker 1:It into more vaginas. It's like a lollipop, right. So it just shrinks every time. The more you lick, the more you get smaller and smaller. So there's poof. There's no penis, it's just a stick. Yeah, it's a kickstand. A soggy one too, because you're sucking it so hard. A flat one, oh my God.
Speaker 1:What about the myth that this one's gonna be something. Okay, let's hear it. Bigger dicks equal bigger, better sex I yeah, I mean, here's the thing. I think medium dicks are probably the way agreed, because big dicks hurtful, could be really hurtful. You have to really prepare for them.
Speaker 1:I've heard women that do have husbands with bigger or wider dicks say like they're sore for a lot of days, which I mean I could see how the soreness could be like a like a fun thing, Like just being like you know, I don't know, it's just a weird thing the first time, yeah, just like a weird sex thing that you think, or like they tell you like you're gonna be sore tomorrow. You're not gonna mean, yeah, yeah, that kind of weird shit, ew, um, but I do think that if you could work it, you're probably pretty much okay with any size dick, except for micros hate to say it. You know what? Also, though, I have had sex with guys with not technically a micro penis, but it was small, smaller than preferred, and it wasn't good and it was not good. But that's why they have to have like a really good oral sex game and they don't. Yeah, that's always the problem, I know.
Speaker 1:I know we joke a lot about the small penises here, which is fucked up, which is mean, which is mean. We really shouldn't. I know I'm sorry if your husband has a small penis, but he also probably pleases you, right, because, in whatever way, because you stay with him, right, hopefully, right. So it's like orally, or he really knows how to work your spots in there or he knows, you know, whatever it is. But, yeah, I mean I would say the medium to large dicks are probably the way to go. Yeah, the medium to large dicks are probably the way to go. Yeah, the large and then the small. I would rather deal with a large than a small, for sure, but medium is preferred. Yeah, probably is probably going to be your best. I bet if we had to check off boxes, most women would probably check medium. Yeah, I think a lot of girls say large.
Speaker 1:Also, I think we have a misconception on what a large penis is. You know, I was gonna say like, like. I think we see videos all the time and say like 12 inches, and they're like jesus christ, you, you know, like. Girls say they want 12 inches and you're like. You know that 12 inches is the size of a ruler. You're trying to put that in. Like what, what are we saying here, you know? Or like two soda cans, that's, that's a lot. Yeah, no, I'm like what? Like that? No, that doesn't seem enjoyable whatsoever. Yeah, it just seems like a challenge to pull out a ruler and show people what 12 inches is, because they want to say 12, 10.
Speaker 1:These are hurtful areas 10 to 12. So whenever I was in the Air Force, you had to stand like we'd be outside and we're standing, and then they would tell you like you're supposed to have your feet like 12 inches apart or whatever. And so they'd be like all right, have your feet 12 inches apart, whatever. No-transcript, yeah, it would kill me every time. Um, yeah, I think people, I think most people would probably ask for like a five and a half to seven and a half. Yeah, that's great. I think that's where I think that's great. That is like a, a good area also.
Speaker 1:The other thing, though that's tough too, is no matter the length. If it's too skinny, that's a tough one for me. Where it's like it's too skinny, he's like a little width, not not a crazy amount of girth here, but like, again, medium, just medium. Yeah, I don't. It's funny how, in every aspect of life, we always want to be above average. But this might be where a woman says they just want an average. Yeah, you know where people might be like average would be good. You, you know, actually, more is actually not more in this case. Yeah, I mean, I saw this.
Speaker 1:There's this porn guy that we follow on TikTok, or I followed. He just had like some good stories or whatever, and he's like girthman2000 or whatever. That's his username. Yeah, it's like I can't remember what it is or Mr girth or something, and he talks about women and how. I think he had a girl on there in a video and she was like, yeah, I mean, I had to prep for a lot of days for him and I was like I, I like after I have sex with him, it's like nothing for a week and they're like porn stars because his penis is so huge. Yeah, I'd have to pay a lot of money for me to do that. Yeah, I mean, once I see it, I have to run. I would run away. If it's, I gotta go, sorry, scream. Yeah, what's in my throat? Oh, not the throat, never the throat. Um, yeah, okay, I mean that that is our next one.
Speaker 1:Like sex is not like porn. So the myth that like sex should be like porn. Yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't know why. Yeah, I guess because it's a. It's the fantasy. Yes, right, it's always the fantasy.
Speaker 1:It's a production. It lasts forever. You're doing hundreds of positions. You're just like. You're staying hard the whole time. You're squirting For hours. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, where is that coming from? You're so dehydrated now You're just performing this whole time. Like, like, everything that they do is so great. You're just screaming all the time. Yeah, it's just like the best thing that you've ever experienced. No, yeah, I think it's so unrealistic and I think that you know when we're talking about porn and stuff like, yeah, of course, like that's where porn becomes an issue is, if you are watching it and then you're expecting that to be, or you're like comparing your sex life to that, then that's a problem because that's not real life. It's a movie. It's the actors.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've heard people like I know some people they like put it on and they just like, maybe do some things that they do, you know, kind of act it out, but I mean we can't do a whole show. I don't think. No, I don't want to put my video camera. I mean, here's the thing how about this? How about people like videotaping themselves, like having sex, which I think could be fun? I would do that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think you could, drew, and I have never done that. I don't know. I don't know if I could watch it later. Even I would just like be embarrassed to like see myself. I'd be like I can't. I only want to look like what Drew's doing, but I can't watch myself. Yeah, you know, I'd be so embarrassed, but I can see how that is appealing, though, like you put it on, it's like watching a porno later, but then it's your porno. Yeah, like I would record it and then he could just watch it later.
Speaker 1:I'm not going to watch it later, yeah, because you're all. Yeah, I'll be on there. Yeah, yeah, but you better make sure the angles are good. Yeah, I mean, it's like taking boudoir photos, sexy Of yourself, though. Yeah, tough, yeah, that is tough. Yeah, it's a tough thing, tough ways to grab it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you might need to hire a videographer for that if you want to do a porno at home. Yeah, a videographer for that if you want to do a porno at home. So, um, yeah, weird, I haven't thought about, like I wonder if any of my friends do. They like make pornos at home and they just have a little collection. I do, I'm sure that they do. Do you think so? I think some people, you think it's more common that people. Actually, I think it's more common than you would think. Yeah, it's more normal. Okay, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1:I've personally never done that. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna see if you'll do it, but yeah, I'm sure he would do that quicker than you guys doing anal. Yeah, yeah, he's not. He's not ready. Yeah, you know too, it's funny that the husband's not ready to do the anal. Yeah, yeah, I just remember I did do that one time. Oh, you did actually did do that one time. It was that great.
Speaker 1:It was a very short um, it was like too dark and like he didn't know and I just wouldn't. I didn't really care. It was like he wanted to do it and I was just like, yeah, record whatever. But also they don't know what they're doing. And then you're like you're just trying to hold this thing and then like you're trying to hold your phone and do all this stuff and I was like what do you don't have a tripod? And do people get worried that now there's a tape out there that either like For sure you know like I'm not saying like your husband would, but it could go bad, people get divorced all the fucking time you know or you know you're just going to do it with a boyfriend or girlfriend and then now your tape is just out there.
Speaker 1:For men, I don't think that ever the tapes or the footage I mean the photos that are leaked, are ever as bad for the guys as they are for the girls. No, they're always awful for us Because everyone is judging us. If you're out there sending nudes and taking videos that show your face, then you're that stupid anyway. Yeah, but also, like I don't know, like I don't really care, I feel like before I would be like like that would have mortified me, whereas now if someone, like if someone ever came into my life right now and was like, oh, I'm gonna leak this photo of you, I'd be like, do it, bitch, do it. Hopefully you get some money for it, because same, I really don't care.
Speaker 1:Also, because my kids are adults and I don't think that we ever had a household where, like you, would be so ashamed that, first of all, my kids would never watch it, anyone that is my family or a friend, they wouldn't watch the video, right? That would be weird first of all. So it'd be like, oh, she got this like video leaked or whatever. Nobody would. They would feel bad for me, not for, like you know, and what, like I'm ashamed that I had sex, you know like. So my kids, like you know.
Speaker 1:And then there's like all this thing, I'm not a celebrity, so like, that's probably different, right? I think I watched Amber Rose. She has only fans and she said she really like stopped putting like really sexual content on there, because she's like my kids are getting older and I just that her shit just gets played everywhere so they just might be scrolling on Instagram and it's their mom's pussy. You, you know, like who wants to see that. You know, so, like that's different, but yeah, but I mean, I bet people do worry about like, okay, now he just has this video sent to all his fucking friends and then, like you know, the younger kids in their mid twenties, you know, yeah, yeah, I think it's heavily dependent on, like, your relationship status, the person that you're doing this with, your age, uh, and your career.
Speaker 1:Like, also for me, like, what's gonna happen to me if a porn gets out, I don't give a fuck. I own a boudoir photography studio. It's so on brand for me to have a sex. I already have my butt it out on my instagram. I don't give a fuck about. So what? My? You see my pussy? Like nobody is trying to look at it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but it's different, like if I was some like you know ceo of a fucking tech company. Yeah, that would be awful for my career. Or if you're a religious or any, any, yeah, it depends. It completely depends on your, um, I guess, your situation, your situation, your career, your like your kids, your family, whatever, yeah, um, yeah, I think too, and I'm sure my family would not be like thrilled about it, but also, I'm not, I don't have the type of family that would be like we're gonna just own you because you, yeah, like my mom, would be like, okay, you're an idiot. Yeah, you're dumb, and same with my grandparents would be like god you're. So what are you thinking? Yeah, like what, you thought this was a good idea, but they wouldn't be like they would never be mad at me. No, like, yeah, like you're saying like, disown me for any reason. My brothers too, they'd be like god, you're dumb, okay, I mean, they probably think I'm dumb all the time, but you know, yeah, yeah. So if you're gonna make a sex tape, make sure you do it with someone, you keep it, make sure it's with someone you trust and preferably, do not show your face in this video.
Speaker 1:Um, there's a myth that I think a lot of guys believe, like if a girl is not soaking wet, she must not be turned on like you're, or you're just like not wet at all. They might be like she's not into this. Yeah, I don't think that's true. I mean, it's the same. It's the same thing. I think it goes to like with penises not getting hard, it could be biological, it could be your hormone levels, it could be the medication that you take, that you're under a lot of fucking stress, like you have no idea what's happening, like like I think with those two things specifically, people need to have more understanding. So here's the thing. I I think it's two things.
Speaker 1:I feel like you've told me stories where you go into these situations where you're gonna have sex with these guys and these guys are like talking it up, talking it up, talking it up. It's like the situation is like we're going to have sex on, like the ship all bought and then they can't get hard, right? I think that's a different situation, like how you have to react in those situations, or what you think. Not react you should just be nice, I guess. Yeah, but what you think later then, like it's your spouse or it's your husband or it's like your partner, and then they can't get it up for whatever reason, I think that's more of like, okay, we're investigating, like what's going on? Are you stressed? Yeah, we're doing an investigation. Are you stressed? You try to be more helpful. And the same thing, I think, for women too, like you know, if she is dry, like we need to figure out what the solution is and why.
Speaker 1:I mean, I think for girls it's easier. You can squirt some lube. Guys, they can't get it up, they're fucked, sorry, yeah, like, what are we going to do? I guess you have to eat me out for 10 hours. Which? Who wants to do that? It's so fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's really easy in those situations to, when you're the other person, to feel like it's because of you, or like something that you've done or that you're not doing right, to feel like, oh no, are they? They are not attracted to me, or and you just have to realize, like 99 of the time, has nothing to do with you. Also, the other person is way more embarrassed and is, you know, like they're the ones that it's happening to. So, like, don't make it, yeah, don't make it about you. They're literally it's happening to them, they're embarrassed as fuck. They will tell you like I'm so turned on, but they can't get wet or they can't get hard, like come on, get you know, help them out or just be like nice or whatever. Yeah, yeah, I mean, those two things are tough. Those are like tough because they're like, they're like medical issues. This is a medical condition. Yeah, yeah, they're not necessarily, you know, like because I'm turned on or not turned on.
Speaker 1:Also, maybe it I think that sometimes this has happened where it's like it's like a quickie or whatever, for with me and Drew, like we just like it starts too quick, so it's like I'm not complete, like we're just putting it in, like I'm not completely wet yet, so it's a couple of thrusts to get me like completely wet, you know, and so I feel like that happens too. Yeah, you know, yeah, it's like you have, whatever the situation is, you're not, you don't have enough foreplay leading up to it. Yeah, it's like we're just going to do it, but we haven't like done anything yet. So it's like yeah, of course I'm not wet yet. Sorry, right, takes a minute, give me a couple thrusts or whatever and then I'll get wet. It's fine. You know Well, and I think that it. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I think there's a myth with men or like about men, that they're just like always ready to have sex Anytime. They could drop anything that they're doing and they're ready to go. And that is just not true. No, that's so ridiculous. No, when Drew's stressed out he doesn't want to have sex. No, because who wants to have sex when they're stressed out?
Speaker 1:Also, like I think that we, a lot of people, put a lot of emphasis on women needing this like emotional connection to someone to have sex. But a lot of guys do too. And so for a lot of guys, like let's say you don't know, let's say it's not your spouse, it's like someone you're dating or whatever, and like maybe there's just not enough of a connection yet for them to really want to do that yet. And it doesn't mean that they're not into you or that they don't like eventually want to do that, but I just think that it's really, um, the the connection that guys need in order to have sex is completely underrated.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure, for sure, yeah, yeah, they can't just be ready all the time, but Hard dicks all the time Walk around with a boner, all the time, tent. They have a tent all the time, just like searching. They're searching for a pussy. Yeah, like this. Where is she at? Yeah, where is she? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, where is she?
Speaker 1:I gotta get in my place, yeah, yeah, but on the on the flip side, I think the there's also a myth that women must have such a deep emotional connection to have sex with somebody, which also is not true. Yeah, I think that's again very situational. Depends on the person, the situation, the, the partner that you're talking about. There's just so many factors involved. How drunk we are, yeah, I think sex is like such a complicated, like layered situation that people just yeah, right off, as like this easy thing, that should just be so effortless, and if it isn't, then there must be something wrong. Yeah, what the fuck? And that's it's actually so hard and so hard to navigate. No pun intended. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and that's the thing. Like, okay, that, okay, that makes me think of something else.
Speaker 1:So every single time that you do have sex with your partner isn't always going to be 10 out of 10. No, like there might be times where you're like that actually kind of sucked, like we'll try harder next time and it could be for again, for whatever reason. Maybe there are like physical things going on, but a lot of it is because the mental and emotional aspect that is behind what's going on is really just creating a barrier where you just can't, for whatever reason, you're just not having as good, as great of a connection as you maybe you normally do. Maybe you're like we just have great sex all the time and then I don't know what happened last night, like things were not good, we just like were not in sync and things just like felt really awkward and it's so again. So easy to just jump to conclusions like what's going on? Or like maybe he's cheating on me or Lola, and it's like it's just you can't expect every time Just like I say with our, with photography you can't expect every single photograph to be a masterpiece. Okay, every session, every, even every session, every single one to be the best thing you've ever ever done your whole life the best work you've ever put out? Yeah, best thing you've ever. Ever done your whole life, the best work you've ever put out? Yeah, no, that's not gonna be every time you have sex. Can't be the best time you've ever had, yeah. So, yeah, when some, you lose some.
Speaker 1:I think there was a time uh, I don't know, this must have been last year or something, I don't know drew and I had sex and I was like, uh, the next day I said I didn't really like our sex last night. And he goes what? And I go yeah, I didn't really like our sex last night. And he goes what? And I go yeah, I didn't really like the position we were doing it in. And he was like you said you wanted to do it like that. And I go yeah, then I didn't really like it, I didn't want it. Yeah, what? Yeah, I didn't really like it like that. Yeah, sometimes I didn't really feel connected. Yeah, try again next time. All right, we're not doing that anymore. I like it. Yeah, I had.
Speaker 1:I have had situations like that where I'm like I don't know what's going on, but this is not that fun. Like, should we continue? I'll stop in the middle. I'll say something in the middle. I'll be like you will. Yeah, if it's just like weird or like just seems like we're just forcing it kind of, I'll say I'll say something. Yeah, I mean like, not like what the fuck is going on. Yeah, I'll just kind of be like are you having fun? That's so awkward. No, like I'll say something. I don't know, like I don't even who knows what I would exactly, but I feel like I have said stuff in the past. I just I can't remember. It's been a while.
Speaker 1:But yeah, yeah, and if it's just not working out, like, all right, maybe we should take a break. Are you hungry? Do you need anything? Maybe we could just circle back a little bit later. Yeah, I Like we have sex and then it's time to go to bed because we have to work long, we're tired. So, like, this is now or never. Hurry up, yeah.
Speaker 1:So sometimes you're just like, okay, yeah, I mean okay, I mean it doesn't happen. No-transcript, I don't know why I didn't like it. Weird. You try to analyze it and stuff, and then you're just like, eh, I mean, fuck it, there's going to be hundreds of millions more times, so just move along. Well, remember, drew did his calculations of how many more times you guys will have sex in your lifetime. Yeah, so it's fine, just move on. So it's like can't be perfect. Every time the thing is like can't be perfect, yeah, yeah, no, not everything's going to be perfect every time. It's like that's not how the world fucking works. Yeah, you just got to keep moving on.
Speaker 1:Also, I think people think you were mentioning people think, like everyone else is having more sex than you are. Some are obviously yeah, sometimes you're in a drought and you're just not having as much sex. And there are other people that are in a drought too. You know, I don't know. People are like I think I heard something that's like one to three is like average for a married couple. One to three times a week. Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1:So I would like to have sex every day, but not the pressure of having sex every day. You have to. Yeah, drew, when I tell drew that he goes, it's too much pressure, babe, like it's pressure that we have to force. Yeah, we have to every day and I go, fine, like every other day, but then sometimes every day, sometimes the days are consecutive, yeah, so it's like you know, I want to do it more, like every day, and Drew's like I want to do it every other day so there's not so much pressure, and I go, I know, but still you know, and he's like, oh my god, you're just so spoiled. He's like, whenever you want to do it, we have to do it. I'm like, yeah, but that way you don't have to ask. You know that I wanted and that's what I told.
Speaker 1:I told him that too, like if I think that, if that's how you feel because I think with relationships too, or yeah, any relationship has to be right, the having to start it, or feeling like you're the one, oh, like initiating this, yeah, exactly that you're the one that has to initiate it. And then feeling like you could get rejected or you could. You know, people like hate that you know. And so I feel like I just wanted to tell drew like I'm open to have sex every day, twice a day. Oh, my god, whenever you want, I will. At this point, right now, I will not deny at all. So ask me whenever you would like to. I am fully open to it. Yeah, and so that's how it's been for a while now and I think, being open like that if you want to.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm like you, trying to initiate every time, like you know, and then you feel worried. You know why am I always initiating happen? You're never. I think that's all. That's such a huge conflict for for marriages, like the initiation thing, and so I think that if you want to do it all the time, just let them know one time and then they just have they know that, yeah, just communicate, yeah, so you don't have to be like worried and don't try to be tit for tat and like, well, I'm not gonna initiate this time because I initiated the last three times. All right, then you're gonna go to bed pissed off. Yeah, because I would still say, even though I told you that I want to have sex all the time, all day, he still initiates almost 100. You're not the initiator, but you still want to be the girl. Oh god, I know, I love gender roles, I know you. Yeah, I want him to initiate, I don't know why. Yeah, I mean, I touch him all the time. So, like, I just feel, like you know I want to do it. So just let me know when you want to. Oh, my God, okay.
Speaker 1:So we looked up some funny sex myths, so these are from people on the internet. Sex myths is like christmas sex, because it went just all together sex, sex, yeah, christmas sex. So these are things that people on the internet believed to be true. Okay, well, here's the thing. I mean I don't have anything. I mean I can tell you a weird story. Maybe I, I did have this thing.
Speaker 1:Do you have any myths that you believe, when you were younger, that, like you had to debunk yourself? Oh my God, I don't think so, yeah. Or like you were just naive to, or like you know, like anything like that? So for me, I mean, this is kind of weird to say. I don't think I should say this out loud, but I'm going to say anyway so I didn't use any protection.
Speaker 1:I had sex for the first time when I was in eighth grade. All the way until, probably for almost well, until I had sex with Drew. So, yeah, almost two years, I just wasn't using anything for the most part and they were just like coming at me and I just never got pregnant. You just got lucky. This is a little slut, little slut, slut. Yeah, I was molested. So, jesus, that's your excuse. Everything, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, when you're, you know, highly sexual at such a young age. It is like you know, correlates, but, um, yeah, and I just just like whatever. So I thought, I think I thought I couldn't get pregnant yeah, okay, because it had went for so long, like that's a long time I so I was just so irresponsible and I never got pregnant until Drew. So it was meant to be yeah, yeah, wow, that's crazy, isn't that crazy? That is crazy.
Speaker 1:Just so many things about what you said is fucking crazy. Yeah, the whole thing. I don't know that I have anything. I'm trying to think if there was anything. Yeah, there's nothing that I really can remember. Honestly, me too, me too, I like you know people think like sex was this or sex was that. Like, we're going to read because we read, you know, a few earlier, but the only thing that maybe I mean this isn't like crazy, but, um, I think and I think I don't know if this is even, I don't think this is true I still, to be honest, don't know.
Speaker 1:Okay, so, but this is things that, like people would say, is like like, uh, the longer that you're like on birth control, or like you're on birth control for extended period of time, like it's harder for you to get pregnant or like you can't like, the longer you're on birth control then the longer it takes to get pregnant once you get off. Yeah, I mean, I don't think that that's a standard rule, because some, you know, you hear about your friends where they're like I got birth control and literally first month I was fucking pregnant, you know, and they were on, you know, birth control. So they were 16 and they were 30. So, like, I don't think that that is a standard. No, no's not, though, you know, but I think, yeah, that was something I believed. I was like, really, yeah, so I'm gonna have to like I gotta plan for like years. Yeah, I gotta plan ahead. Yeah, but yeah, that was the only thing that I kind of thought.
Speaker 1:Yeah, which is interesting, that it's like I wonder if women's like myths are mostly around pregnancy. Probably, probably. Okay, our funny sex myths from the people of the internet Christmas sex, wait, what do you mean? Sex myths, sex mix? Yeah, sex myths. We're going to celebrate sex myths this year. Yes, I genuinely 100% thought that some men had hollow penises and that's how gay sex worked.
Speaker 1:Okay, one dick went in the other dick. Yeah, it's just like this you put a dick inside the other dick, I'll do it in the video Like this. And then they just went like this or the other one. They both get to have sex like this. And then this one goes in yeah, one's the one goes in, yeah, one's. The vagina, basically, yeah, that's. The hole just opens up. That's hilarious. Okay, that's a good one.
Speaker 1:Okay, who told you these things? These are All my friends and I thought that you could never get a girl pregnant if the condom was black. We thought the sperm would get lost or it would be too confused to find an egg in the dark. Wait, what? So? If it was a clear condom, you could get pregnant because they could just see through. It could go right through. What guys you are so weird, okay, oh, my gosh. Uh, I would think blowjob means literally blow on the guy's penis. Just blowing raspberries, perfect.
Speaker 1:I used to think oral sex was the same thing as phone sex. You just take that phone and shove it up your mouth. That means sucking on the phone receiver. Okay, great. Your mouth, that means sucking on the phone receiver okay, great. I thought humans always did it doggy style. I just assumed all creatures did it that way. They just saw dogs having sex and they're like that's how you do it. What happened? Well, I mean, it's true, All the animals are doing it doggy style. God, this one's sad.
Speaker 1:Up until age 19 or so, I legitimately thought women were physically incapable of enjoying sex. I bet that guy has a 12 inch dick. That's who said that. But you know, I think that that is probably the truth for a lot of women. Oh for sure, sure that they just haven't enjoyed sex because they haven't found the right partner. Yeah, that was sad. That's really sad. Um, I thought it was true that I would immediately come. Once a girl's tongue touched my dick, shut up. I bet that's happened to somebody. Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, just like Drew's cock ring story, fucking shoots off immediately as soon as it got turned on. Goddamn my mom, oh God. My mom made an attempt to explain to me what porn was when I was around 10 years old. Sadly, I then proceeded to think that every sex scene in a movie was called porn and that they actually did have sex. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:And then the last one is that it's intrinsically something immoral and shameful. Sex is a fundamental part of life, and being ashamed of it I'm sorry I can't read. Sex is a fundamental part of life and being ashamed of even wanting it is no way to live. Be respectful, be safe, exercise consent and you're fine. Yeah, I think the wanting is a huge thing for women, I mean that. I think that goes to the initiation thing. Girls don't want to initiate because it's like we're ashamed that, like we want sex and no one gave us permission to want sex, and we feel like we talk about this a lot like feeling sexual and all our desires are OK and it's like we are conditioned to that. Yeah, which is fucking crazy. Yeah, it is, and I don't know why we allow it still to this day.
Speaker 1:I feel like there are women you know coming of age and that is what they believe. Mm, hmm, so it's crazy. Wait, this day, I feel like there are women you know coming of age and that is what they believe sucks, crazy, wait, there's one more. Okay, let's hear it. I thought during sex the guy would pee into the girl's vagina. Not to pee, yeah, golden showers, yeah, okay. Into the girl's vagina. Then the pee that entered the girl would be peed back into the guy's dick. No, and that cycle would continue until both of us fell asleep. Just pee, pee, pee, pee, pee and sleeping. Yeah, what the fuck?
Speaker 1:Who tells in these situations? Oh, my god, or they just come up with it and then they are start spreading their it to their friends when they're younger, and then everyone believes these things. They're like hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm going to start some rumors too. Tell some kids in the neighborhood, just kidding, we're not going to tell kids about sex scenes. Yeah, we're going to be on the registry now for saying that yeah, okay, so I didn't. Yeah, well, I didn't that up.
Speaker 1:Um, does anyone listening? We want to hear. Is anyone listening? They turned it off after the kid thing. No one's listening. Nobody's listening. Hello, is anyone out there? I thank God this isn't like a live radio show. It's nobody going to be like dark. Yeah, ratings are low guys. Yeah, we're fired, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're fired, we're fired. We're fired from our payless job. Yeah, okay, that's totally fine. Sponsor position yeah, I want to know.
Speaker 1:These are hilarious, hilarious. Like reading these myths. Yeah, people online are so freaking funny. Like I have to hear more. Yeah, like, tell us what you believed, yeah, or what did your parents tell you? Weird shit. Or what did your kids tell you? That there was some weird shit going on, you know, yeah, yeah, definitely, we have to hear it. And if you send us any of these myths, we'll definitely repost them, yeah, um, on our instagram. So shoot us a dm about your sex myths that you believed or your parents told you. We want to hear it on instagram at maximalist life podcast. Okay, wait.
Speaker 1:So someone had said that they always, like, talk back to us in like when we're recording or whatever, and they're talking out loud, yeah, and then so they're like oh, I say I'm gonna send it later or whatever, but just do a voice memo and send it to our instagram, because before I say anything, I forget to message you guys or whatever. But just send us a little voice memo. What you want to tell us yeah, it could be anything, what episode you're listening to, and then just say whatever and we'll just try to figure it out. Whatever, yeah, yeah, yeah, just whatever. Yeah, just let us know. Say it doesn't even need to be a full sentence, yeah, yeah, yeah, just quick so that we can get it, because people always say like I forgot, and they'll tell us in person these things.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, but we want to share with the world. Oh, my god, this is such a funny one, really silly, yeah. Well, hopefully you guys reach out on Instagram. We'd love to hear from you guys and we will see you next time. Hope you're having fun. Tits up, dicks out.
