16. Sex, Erotica, and Evolution: Relationship Series

WARNING: This episode covers mature topics and concepts such as sex, eroticism, etc.

This week, Meaghan and Marta really get it in…. I mean… get into it. Because really, deep down we all just wanna do it like they do on the discovery channel! (Please tell me you get the reference).

Anyway, we talk about the following:

• Sex as a physical need
• Sense of smell and sex
• How to score ladies in Germany
• Mate selection and ovulation

And we watched/read the following to get ready for our chat:
