RECLAIM with Thais Sky

Ep. 178 Consent Culture with Marcia Baczynski

“I am thrilled to have Marcia back on the podcast to talk about the complexities and nuance of consent culture. The caricature we see on the media of consent is often stiff, black and white, and devoid of passion and intimacy. In this episode, Marcia and I talk about how consent culture is really about deepening pleasure and increasing connection. Enjoy!” – Thais Sky

Truth Telling with Elizabeth DiAlto

EP250: Sex, Consent And Relationship Dynamics

“I’m pretty sure this was my favorite conversation on the show in the last three years. Not just because it primarily focuses on sex, but because our guest Marcia Baczynski is really brilliant at what she does, and we addressed things that most people simply don’t talk about or receive education on.

Marcia’s big truth was that she can change her mind. From there we explored:

-What Cuddle Parties are (she’s the co-founder),
-Navigating boundaries, consent, preferences and assumptions in sex.
-Gender, heterosexual and non-heterosexual dynamics in love and sex.
-Power dynamics! Which is something I’ve been really wanting to explore on the show – and why people may or may not feel obligated to say yes to things they are really not ok with sexually.
-And she also introduced some great concepts like desire smuggling and the difference between consent and permission.

This is one to listen to more than once, share with friends, and use as a conversation piece with loved ones. Enjoy!”

On The Wet Coast

Episode 33: Get Your Flirt On

Figuring out how to express our interest in someone can be one of the most challenging things in dating, especially if we find them really attractive, fun, or interesting. What do we say? What if they’re not into it? Why is it so hard to express ourselves in a fun, clear, non-creepy way?

If what everyone we know reports about themselves is true, no-one is good at flirting. How the hell are any of us hooking up if this is a skill no-one has?

On this episode of On The Wet Coast, Kat Stark & Flick Morrison are joined by Marcia Baczynski, master of the art of asking for what you want and dedicated flirt who is here to share her humour, wisdom, and creativity in how to navigate the world of flirting.”
