This episode features a voice that will be familiar with Fruitbowl fans: our very own host with the most, Saira B.! After just a few minutes of listening, you’ll soon learn why Saira (who, BTW, uses ALL the pronouns) is the perfect person to represent the amazing diversity of experiences of Fruitbowl interviewees.
Raised in Wilmington, Delaware to academic parents who trusted their kid to explore cities like Philly and NYC all by herself, Saira was always informed about his body’s different functions including how babies get made by a mom who valued clear communication about the science of the body. As they grew into adolescence, Saira applied this same academic curiosity to her interest in sex and kink and they have some great advice when it comes to exploring BDSM: make sure to inform yourself about the kinds of kink you want to explore, communicate with your partner or partners clearly and don’t assume that the top doesn’t also need aftercare.
