We absolutely love when YOU, our listener, determines what is discussed on this podcast!  Last week’s episode on the penis was inspired by a request from our audience, and this week, in response to many who wrote to us to ask if we’d talk about her parts as well, we are! This is the “Vag Show” from Turned On With Sue And John.Today Sue will cover everything from setting the record straight about the vagina being a system, not just a hole and about how no two vaginas are the same despite whatever ideas of “the perfect pussy” you get from magazines and other media.We’ll discuss why she likes touch and stillness more than thrusting, why your pelvic floor is not supposed to be tight, and how your vag remembers past sex.Also, we address a question from a listener whose partner wants him to play rough with her labia. He wants to know if that’s ok.  (Spoiler, YES IT IS!) And, for our swinger friends, we present the 15 etiquette rules for swinging - plus one more!  Our swinger segment presented by Club M4 in Toronto - The Premier Swingers Club in North America clubm4.comAnd finally, some fun as fuck feedback about food as sex toys!

It’s another, in a long list of things, that people really want to talk about, but are too shy to talk about.
Penis size.On this episode of Turned On With Sue And John, we’re talking about it! Including, what things actually work to increase length and girth.  There are some crazy things on the market and we’ll help you steer clear of some of them.Men deal with a lot of anxiety over the size of their manhood, and Sue is here to tell you that you can relax.  In fact, she will reveal that there is actually something that most women remember a LOT more than your size!There are problems with being too big as well, and we’ll address that as it pertains to traditional sex, plus oral and even anal sex.For our friends in the swinger lifestyle, we address the men at the resort who may have a big one, but is that enough to get them on everyone’s wish list? (Spoiler; no. It’s not.)And this week’s conversation also deals with the “bros” whose toxic masculinity is hurting them more than it’s helping them, and how they view their penis plays a role in this. Some bonus talk this week regarding men being called “Daddy” and other pet names, and John went to M4, a very well known adult lifestyle club in Toronto and he’ll share his thoughts on the experience with you today as well!
