Good Girls Talk About Sex

What’s your favorite kind of touch?
Good Girls Talk About Sex
What kind of touch do you enjoy? Have you thought about the ways, and places? Touch is a many-splendored thing.
info_outlineHeather grew up assuming she would marry a man and have children. So she did. But sex was never a good experience. Then she had sex with a woman for the first time, and her life was changed forever.
Today she lives with her female partner and co-parents her four daughters with her former husband.
She opens up about her early sexual journey through the lens of parenthood, and what she wants for her daughters compared to what she experienced.
Heather is a 45-year-old, cis-gender female who describes herself as lesbian, monogamous, peri-menopausal, and in a long-term domestic partnership. She has four daughters, ages 6 to 15, and describes her body as “a little pudgy”.
