Britt’s peacocking has gone horribly wrong. She’s blaming the laser therapist. The laser therapist is blaming her… She’s going to be a unicorn at the wedding. She also might be banned from a different laser place for a different reason. 

Laura has reached a truly incredible career milestone with ToniMay. We are here cheering her on as *influencers, *business partners or friends.😂It’s been 15 years in the making and we’re all so proud and chuffed of their hard work.
Plus your spiciest confessions are back! Again, we are galvanised by how cooked everyone else is.

Are you on the ‘morning shed’ or the ‘5 hour morning routine’ algorithm?
We speak about the standards that keep evolving for what we are ‘meant’ to be doing to prevent ageing and wake up ‘beautiful.’ The lines between beauty and wellness seem to be blurred and it’s a bit bat sh*t that they’ve run out of things to market to us when we’re awake so they’ve moved on to products to use when we are unconscious.
Are morning routines a competition? Who are they really for?

Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your deep and dark dilemmas. Today’s first dilemma is the type that a bodysuit and a bathroom visit brings you. If you know, you absolutely know.
Keeshia went to a hens party with a certain type of male entertainment. There was almost full nudity, but the parts that remained covered were not the ones that you would expect them to be.

Vibes for the week:
Britt - Colleen Hoover Verity
Laura - Yoto Player
Keeshia - Maybelline Superstay Teddy Tint Lipstick Skinny Dip

Then we jump into your questions!

REFUSES TO GO DOWN OR KISS WITH TONGUE?!
One of our best friends has gotten into a new relationship (about 6 months) and is head over heels for this guy! She’s never been happier, so she says….. She has always been the girl in long term relationships and her last long term boyfriend was toxic as hell and really ripped her friendships apart. Regardless of who she is with, she is VERY defensive of them, BUT once she breaks up with the boyfriend she admits everything. She recently told us on a girl‘s weekend that her new boyfriend has not and WILL NOT eat her out. He also will not  kiss with tongue. When we questioned why, she said “he has super weird hygiene habits” yet he is obsessed with her feet. We asked if he would try and she said he flat out refuses! Our question is, is this normal? We get there are always certain things people do not like doing in the bedroom but the fact he flat out refuses to even try concerns us! In her previous relationships she was VERY kinky and loved her sex life, but now she makes concerning comments like “they only do it once a week, rarely” and she is always keen for him to leave for work so she can use her vibrators. Keep in mind she is only 25 with no responsibilities.

HOUSEHOLD SHOES DEBATE
Super contentious issue, but also ridiculous and first world problem between my husband and I. 4 years on and we still have heated arguments. He hates me walking inside with my work shoes on (I'm a teacher). Yet on every other day we are a barefoot family and walk outside for hours without shoes, then he will walk through the house no worries. Is this double standards? I think wearing barefoot then walking it inside is worse! We are fine just agreeing to disagree but he's loving listening to ask uncut with me so I thought it'd be interesting.

I CAUGHT MY HUSBAND ON A GAY DATING APP
I’m in serious need of some advice. I can’t tell anyone so you guys are it. I found my husband on a gay dating platform. I went to look up something in safari on his phone because mine was upstairs and it was there when I clicked on the app. I didn’t know what it was at the time and just moved past it but something made me look further later that evening. I found his profile on there quite easily. I don’t know how to approach the subject with him. P.S the amount of married men on this platform is insane. It’s called Sniffies and is completely anonymous unless someone recognises the body parts posted like I did. I do not know what to do.

WHEN TO START MATERNITY LEAVE
This one’s for you Laura!! I am due to have a baby boy in August and am currently talking with my partner and employer about when I will finish up in my full-time role. For context I’ll be 36 weeks by the 27th July, as you would know, I could go into labour anytime from then. Should I work closer to my due date as I would be robbing myself of practically another full month's pay. Or do I need to take more time off as I need to get ready and rest before this big change? For context I do not have a physically demanding job, but I am on the road travelling via car and in and out of meetings. Do I take extra time off and says fuck the money, as it’s my last ‘solo’ moments. Or should I work as close to my due date as possible for the good money? Ps my partner will be supporting me on mat leave financially.

Have you ever been in a relationship where you asked “am I settling?”
What about am I losing myself, what if I’m not good enough and is this type of relationship normal? Sometimes, particularly if you might be a bit of an anxious person already, it can be really hard to tell the difference between relationship anxiety and genuine red flags or signs that you might actually not be compatible.

Today we have anxiety therapist, host of The Anxiety Reset Podcast and author Georgie Collinson joining us to speak about the work she’s done for her new book ‘Master your relationship anxiety.”
Georgie’s previous book, The Anxiety Reset Method, reached international success when it was picked for Oprah’s Book Club in 2023 and was featured on Oprah Daily. 

We’re going to be speaking about why exactly are you feeling anxious in love, what anxiety is trying to tell you, the four types of relationship anxiety and how it may prevent us from being our best selves in relationships.  

We speak about: 

• How relationship anxiety differs from generalised anxiety
• The difference between actual red flags and anxious tendencies
• Why we keep having the same relationship patterns and how to break them
• The 3 stages of love: base love, chaotic love and expansive love
• How to stop being attracted to people who are bad for you
• What ‘learned helplessness’ is
• A healthy relationship is not boring, settling or dull

Hey Lifers!

It's Laura's birthday!!! She had a beautiful message from the most special two girls (definitely her kids and not Britt and Keeshia)! There are revelations about our years on this Earth and we want to wish our happiest birthday the most wonderful human we know!

Laura's home has had a visit from the dummy fairy and we've all entered a new chapter! 
Britt has found herself in some hot water with the law which has led to a lot of surrendering and the need for a screw driver. Who is truly at 'fault' is still up for debate!

Hilaria Baldwin and Alec Baldwin had an awkward exchange on the red carpet. They've gone on to joke about this being 'manturrupting' 'correctile dysfunction'. 

How do you feel about celebrities owning businesses and adding to their already existing wealth? Tina Fey recently sparked debate by criticising the trend of ultra-wealthy people launching their own businesses, particularly in industries where they lack expertise in industries like skincare, fashion, wellness, or alcohol.
We share our thoughts and where we think the line is!

Welcome back to ask uncut where we unpack your deep and burning questions!
Britt is apparently giving Stiffler’s mum vibes and Laura feels very validated about everyone’s hatred for exhaust/extraction fans!

Vibes for the week:
Laura - Lucky Boy Podcast
Britt - Adolescence on Netflix 
Keeshia - Inherited Podcast with Michelle Andrews

Then we jump into your questions!
WHEN TO TELL DATES THAT I CAN’T HAVE A BABY
I’m venturing back into dating as a single girl in her early 30s after a very toxic relationship ending a few months ago. I also found out last year that I’m unable to have my own children due to some bad health issues. This was devastating as I always saw myself being a mum one day. My question is, at what stage do I disclose this to potential partners? A couple of dates in? It feels really heavy and most people I meet seem to want kids so I’m mindful of wasting their time but I’m unsure how to approach this.

COUPLE FRIENDS PRETENDING CHEATING DIDN’T HAPPEN
My boyfriend’s best friend has a great partner and three kids who have become a big part of our life. We always saw them as the perfect family—until two months ago, when we found out he’d been cheating for a year and got a girl pregnant. His partner was the one who told us and asked us not to say anything (she’s a very proud person and was obviously a mess) I supported her of course trying to say all the right things, but nearly three months later, she’s still with him, seemingly in denial, while he acts like nothing happened. My boyfriend and I are struggling with all the lies as he used their friendship to cover his tracks multiple times. Do I keep being friends with them and pretend this didn’t cause so much hurt? I’m worried we will lose these kids because we have hardly seen them since and we really just don’t know what to do! Advice please!

CAN WE SUCCESSFULLY HAVE A HALL PASS?
My partner of 7 years has asked what I would think of having a ‘hall pass’ for one night with a random. We are 25 and he says he would like to experience another sexual partner since we’ve been together since we were 18. I am not opposed to the idea and have thought about it before. He has said it would be a stranger and only once and we would never tell each other when/where/who once we’d done it. I am leaning towards a yes but have an underlying fear that our relationship wouldn’t be the same afterwards. He is 100% my penguin and I believe we will last a lifetime for sure. I guess my question for you is, is this a reasonable request and what boundaries would you put around it?

Is confidence the key to effective communication? How are you meant to respond when someone says something incredibly rude? How can we use silence to out a liar?

Jefferson Fisher is a trial lawyer who you might know as the guy who records videos from his car all about how to communicate during life’s everyday awkward situations and arguments! Jefferson amassed 5.8 million followers and has a new book out titled “the next conversation” and it’s his tried-and-true strategies to deal with difficult people and tough situations.

Our favourite thing about Jefferson is that he provides word for word advice on how to navigate a lot of conflict and having the tool of ‘if someone says this to you, respond with this’ is incredibly helpful!

In today’s conversation, we unpack:

• Where Jefferson learnt the art of storytelling
• How storytelling can determine the outcome of a court case
• Why you should never try to win an argument
• How you can park your ego and emotion during an argument so that you can get your point across in a way that will be listened to
• Jefferson’s tips to make a liar out themselves (remember he’s a trial attorney) 
• How to spot a liar!
• What to say when someone says something rude to you
• Fluffy emails, filler words and over apologising are harming how we are perceived
• How to combat defensiveness

Hey Lifers!

We’re all rev heads now. Officially on the F1 bandwagon; real housewives or documentary, you can decide. We have a quick catch up on our weekend! RIP Keeshia’s toe and Britt’s dignity after a trip to chemist warehouse and a case of mistaken identity. 
Laura has a small health update of something she’s been putting up with since last September. We desperately need better options when it comes to women’s health care and this is a little reminder to advocate for your own health. 

Is there a double standard when it comes to full frontals on our screens?

Jason Isaacs is sick of being asked whether or not he wore a prosthetic penis in The White Lotus where his character, Timothy Ratliff, had his penis hanging out of his bathrobe while in front of his children. 

He said “It’s interesting that there’s a double standard for men. But when women are naked, Margaret Qualley, in ‘The Substance,’ nobody would dream of talking to her about her genitalia or her nipples. So, it's odd that there’s a double standard.”

We speak about:

• Whether he has a point
• How women’s nudity has been used on screens
• How the media has approached female on screen nudity
• The difference between romantic/seductive full frontals and shock/comedic nude scenes
• Our thoughts about prosthetics being used on screen
