Ep 21: Make love, not porn with Cindy Gallop

Spank U, Next: A Fetish & BDSM Podcast is back and bigger than ever! To kick off season 3, hosts Anna and Gregor are joined by entrepreneur, businesswoman and social sex activist Cindy Gallop to talk real sex  – not porn. Cindy learned about the negative effects of porn on IRL sex by exclusively dating younger men, and as a result founded her company MakeLoveNotPorn in 2009. In this episode, Cindy talks real sex for real people, Big Tech's big problem with adult content and how she's changing the future of sex tech for women.
