Sex Gets Real 103: College hook-ups and first time sex with someone you love

What do you do if you’re in love before you have sex?

Comedian and 4-Play Baltimore host, Prescott Gaylord, joins us for the first of two HIQIs.

First, we hear from Sophie about college hook-ups and how she worked all her FWBs on campus. Then, Katie writes in because she is about to have sex with her girlfriend of one year for the first time. But she’s never been in love before having sex and needs advice.

We weigh in. Also, Prescott makes lots of t-shirts.
