The Hook Up

What does the kinda porn you’re into mean? Is it just a fantasy or is it deeper than that?
And how do you deal with feelings of shame and guilt if what you like to get off to, doesn’t align with who you are in your everyday life. 
In this ep, Dee chats to sexologist Lauren French about what your porn taste says about you.
