    Nobody Would Listen To Me w/ Annie

    TW: Sexual violence and rape. In this episode, Jessy and Rebekah speak with Annie who was raped when she was in college and who, despite doing all the “right” things after her attack was still unable to achieve justice through our system. Just a note, if you feel you might get triggered by this content, please skip over. It is important to us that you take care of yourself. And if you have been raped or assaulted and need help, please call the National Sexual Assault Telephone Hotline at (800)-656-HOPE (4673). By calling this number you will be routed to a local RAINN-affiliated organization based off the first six digits of your phone number. Cell phone users have the option to enter their ZIP code so they can be connected with a local sexual assault service provider.


    • 08:45: According to RAINN, 1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime. Among graduate and undergraduate students, 11.2% of all students experience rape or sexual assault through violence, physical force or incapacitation.
    • 09:30: Here is a document created by the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault in April 2014. It explains what a victim advocate is as well as what other services should be offered to students who are victims of sexual violence on campus.
    • 10:00: Here is an article from The Atlantic that talks about how to rape kit backlog has meant that thousands of rapists have gone unfound – some of them serial predators. Women were put through the terror and discomfort of doing a rape kit and oftentimes they are never tested. They just sit in warehouses and rot.
    • 13:00: Here is “an updated definition of rape” from the archives of the Department of Justice, published January 6, 2012. In it, the DOJ makes considerations for incapacitation due to alcohol ingestion when it says, “because many rapes are facilitated by drugs or alcohol, the new definition recognizes that a victim can be incapacitated and thus unable to consent because of ingestion of drugs or alcohol.”
    • 18:10: Here is a one-stop shop for the information about Title IX. There have been a lot of changes since Tr*mp took office and put Betsy DeVos in charge of the education department. Unsurprisingly none of those changes have been good.

    The Black Lives Matters movement has put this amazing site together that has been shared pretty widely. But, sometimes we miss things! So, here it is! There are protest maps, petitions, places to donate (both with money and with time), a missing people thread, extra resources and more. Honestly, Black Lives Matters has been at this for A MINUTE and has used that time to put together a bunch of resources to make us as useful as we can possibly be. So, check it out, explore the site. As we said: there are so many different roles to be played here and they do not all involve being out on the streets protesting. So find out where you can be most useful. The only mistake you can make is not getting involved, whether that be through conversations with friends, donating money, whatever. Black lives matter. 


    Stay safe. 


    Love,

    Jessy and Rebekah

    Is Our Love Podcast with The Reluctant Sexpert and Lola Jean

    We did not have wine before we recorded this intro. JK we had all the wine. But be sure to donate to us at glow.fm/welcometomyvagina so we can keep buying wine and bringing you this content that you so desperately need. On today’s episode, we spoke with Lola Jean and the Reluctant Sexpert all about kinks and fetishes and consent. Make sure to stick around until the end to hear us thoroughly offended about a listicle that we read. 


    • 05:00: Check out our interview on Is Our Love…? Podcast here!
    • 05:30: In case you did not grow up in the late ‘80s, early ‘90s, here is a link to THE Double Mint Gum commercial for your listening pleasure.
    • 05:45: And here is Lola Jean’s “Pass the Porn” project which works to bring ethical porn to the forefront rather than having people shamefully hiding their porn habit behind closed doors and incognito settings.
    • 08:45: Here is a Wiki page about Cytherea in case you’re curious. She is known for her ability to ejaculate. Go Cytherea!

    Let It Grow!

    In this episode Jessy and Rebekah went LIVE….virtually. We did an Instagram Live sesh where we talked about body hair during the pandemic. No waxing? No shaving? No problem! This is a time where we can get back to our roots – no pun intended – and figure out what feels right to us without the input from society. Also, check us out on glow.fm/welcometomyvagina where you can purchase our AMAZING merchandise. We will be posting images this week on our Instagram so make sure to stay tuned for that! And without further adieu…


    • 02:50: Yup, looks like our body odor DOES change during quarantine! According to this Vice article, our body odor is determined by the microbes that live on our skin. Those microbes are influenced by whoever we spend time around. When we engage in skin-to-skin contact with other people, we share our microbial community and therefore our odors are changed. Currently, the people we come in contact with has been severely diminished and therefore our personal microbial community, and therefore our body odor, has changed! 
    • 03:30: If you all want to support us currently and going forward – and score some amazing merchandise! – make sure to become a monthly subscriber on glow.fm/welcometomyvagina. We will be dropping a bonus episode every month for people who donate monthly at $5 or more!
    • 06:45: Maybe Rebekah was thinking about this article by Dave Barry? Which we think is satire?
    • 11:00: Here is the Amanda Mull article from The Atlantic that Jessy was referring to.
    • 24:30:  At this point Jessy actually cut a bit of her hair. So, this is what you are missing by not coming to our live recordings.

    Taking on the Man with Lindsey Boylan

    Before we get started, don’t forget to donate to us at glow.fm/welcometomyvagina. We have all sorts of rewards available (totes, t-shirts, tanks, underwear) AND all monthly subscribers will get access to extra exclusive content! What are you waiting for?! And now to get to the nitty gritty. Jessy started off with a VERY convincing presentation as to why hard boiled eggs are the best snacks and then we spent some time speaking with Lindsey Boylan who is running for the House of Representatives! WOW! Make sure to stick around to the end where we talk about where we would be if we could be anywhere in the world during this pandemic so make sure to stay tuned!


    • 04:30: Meet Lindsey Boylan! She is running against Gerry Nadler for his seat representing the 10th Congressional District for the State of New York in the House of Representatives!
    • 07:45: One issue that wasn’t addressed directly here that we want to highlight is the dangers facing the victims of domestic violence when stay-at-home orders are coupled with economic stressors. In the US, some precincts are reporting a 35% increase in DV calls, and that does not include those that go unreported, which is said to be at about 50% of total cases. You can read more about it in this article from The Intercept.
    • 09:15: It appears as though people in the Nadler camp are very worried about Lindsey Boylan. Read about it in The Washington Post, Business Insider and Teen Vogue.
    • 15:00: Ron Desantis is actually the governor of Florida and he is totally fucking this entire thing up. But the person Rebekah was thinking of is the Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick who said that there are a lot of old people who would sacrifice themselves to open the economy up earlier and, essentially, that getting business rolling is more important than the loves of potentially hundreds of thousands of people. And he can say that because he himself is old. Read about it in this article from Vanity Fair.
    • 20:45: We are, in fact, around the same age! 
    • 24:15: It is true, the yearly salary for members of Congress is $174,000. A number that has been unchanged since 2009, the same year as minimum wage was raised from $6.55 to $7.25 per hour. Just saying.
    • 30:00: As of March 13th, the government was planning on kicking 700,000 people off SNAP benefits as per this Vox article. But, due to the coronavirus, a federal judge blocked Trump’s plan. That being said, people can’t use their SNAP benefits to purchase groceries online, which means that some of the most vulnerable in society are forced to go to a grocery store if they want to eat.
    • 32:30: Important note: the Virginia legislature has flipped blue – Democratic governor, as well as a majority in the state House and Senate – which means it is something of a testing ground for how a lot of these progressive policy proposals will play out over time.
    • 36:30: This is fun. The Washington Post has decided to label all women in Congress who have children under 18 as “working moms.” Anyway, the group has nearly doubled its number to 23. There are 21 serving in the House and 2 in the Senate. So, with 535 members between the House and the Senate, 4.5% of them are women with children under 18.

    • 16:30: Betty Dodson. Living legend. She created masturbation classes during which women sit naked in a room, learn about their bodies with a hand mirror and then explore, ultimately figuring out how to pleasure themselves. Dodson believes that women’s sexual pleasure and general empowerment are tied together and you cannot be empowered without true sexual liberation.
    • 22:30: Rudolph Valentino died in 1926 at age 31! He was an Italian actor based in the United States and was considered the original “Latin lover.” He is SUPER interesting. You should check him out.
