Welcome to Sealed Section! The podcast where sexologist Chantelle Otten answers all the questions you're too afraid to ask your girlfriends.

We thought we'd end this season of Sealed Section with a bang - a solo bang in fact. While masturbation is one of life's (literal) pleasures, it doesn't come easily to all women. 

So in this bumper episode, Chantelle answers EVERYTHING you want to know about self-pleasure. From what toys will work best for you, to whether it's ok to do with a partner sleeping next to you, to whether you can do it too much; nothing, and we mean nothing, will go untouched.

Welcome to Sealed Section! The podcast where sexologist Chantelle Otten answers all the questions you're too afraid to ask your girlfriends.

We don't need to tell you that it's never too late to discover (or rediscover) your sexuality, whatever that means to you. Whether it's after a separation, or when your kids have grown up and moved out, or discovering toys in the bedroom for the first time, there's no age limit on great sex.

In this episode, Chantelle discusses the changes that happen to your body in your 40s, 50s and beyond, how to keep things working smoothly, and answers some juicy questions from women going through their 'sexual relaunch'.

Welcome to Sealed Section! The podcast where sexologist Chantelle Otten answers all the questions you're too afraid to ask your girlfriends.

Kissing, massages, oral sex, touching, using toys, mutual masturbation. We often call these things 'foreplay', but truthfully, they are all a part of the sexual experience, and Chantelle prefers to call them 'outercourse'.

In this episode Chantelle explores all these fun things, and answers questions from listeners about spicing up your outercourse, how to incorporate prostate play, and exactly why semen can taste like bleach.

Chantelle delves into the complicated but incredibly important topic of postpartum sex, and answers questions from listeners who are trying to reconnect with their partner, and themselves, after having a baby.
