1:20 Topic: Am I jealous?
Wendy writes in to ask advice from the cohost team: am I jealous? She gets a certain number of hours a week with her top, and compares that to the number of hours his wife enjoys with him. She relays anecdotes of her top engaging in sex with another bottom, which was beyond the scope of their agreement, and with his wife, which was beyond her expectations. She relays a situation in which she watched the children for his and his wife’s anniversary trip, but her own collaring anniversary went unnoticed.
Is she jealous and how should she cope? Cohosts Joreth, Pepper and Franklin share insights and give advice, including making a list of the things she needs to feel secure in a relationship and how she would like for commitment to be shown.

6:00 Topic: You’re not as kinky as you think
Musings over the findings of a massive internet sex survey made into a book, “A Billion Wicked Thoughts,” by Sai Gaddam. Interesting findings include:
- Gay and straight men alike favor chests, butts and feet, in that order
- The top 10 sex searches cover youth, gay, MILFs (go MILFs!), breasts and cheating wives.
- Men fantasize a lot about group sex.
- Straight men prefer amateur porn to highly-produced porn (score one for real boobs and brown hair!)
- Dominance and submission are extremely common searches, not terribly deviant
- Foot fetishes are common across all cultures
- “There’s no such thing as sexual deviance.”

Topic: Monogamous Privilege
Cory and Kate on the aggregated content: list of privileges that the monogamous-identified often take for granted. Roughly grouped by these themes:
- Poly configurations are not represented in mainstream and therefore considered other
- Monogamy is not considered a choice but poly is
- People make assumptions regarding sexuality or abuse and anyone identifying as poly is asked to represent the entire group socially
- Monogamy had inferred support for children and family
The East Portland blog’s post on Cory’s monogamous privilege checklist.
