S2E23 - Fluid Bonding

In this episode, Jess (The Playful Domme), Lisa (The Poly Wife), and Ella (The Virgin) tackle the topic of fluid bonding—engaging in sexual intimacy without prophylactic barriers such as condoms or dental dams, which allows bodily fluids to mix. Lisa explains her experience and views on fluid bonding within her polyamorous relationships, sharing how she ensures her safety and the safety of her partners through open discussions, regular testing, and setting boundaries. The hosts emphasize the importance of informed decision-making, self-responsibility, and transparent communication with partners when it comes to fluid bonding and sexual health. _____________________________________________________ 🔥SHOW NOTES🔥 [00:00:00] – Welcome & Introduction: Jess, Lisa, and Ella introduce the topic of fluid bonding and why it’s important.
