Emilie is Cosmopolitan UK’s Sex and Relationships Editor, LGBQT+ sexologist and sex educator and a UK Delegate for UN Women.  In this episode, Emilie shares:  The endocrine condition that means that she doesn’t really have periods that oftenThe difference between good and bad sex educationWhat the orgasm gap is and how women can have better orgasms (and sex!) with their partners How to instigate a conversation with your partner about how to have better sex and more pleasure How social media censorship and ‘algo speak’ is impacting the way we speak and learn about gender and sexuality Her advocacy work with UN Women And of course, the story of her first period Emilie says that why we need to teach people how to connect and how to speak to each other about sex so that we can have conversations with our partners about what we like, not fake orgasms, talk candidly about how we like to pleasure ourselves and then transfer that to a partnered experience.
