Melanie, CEO and Founder of Loral’s joined us to give us an insider look at the safer sex products that are revolutionizing the industry. We talk about cunnilingus, STIs, and the need for usable products for every body.

Packers are prosthetics designed to create the appearance of a bulge in the front of one’s pants, helping individuals feel more aligned with their gender identity. Packers are soft, flexible prosthetics typically made from medical-grade silicone or other body-safe materials such as thermoplastic rubber (TPR), foam, or even cloth. Some packers are made from porous materials or materials with phthalates (endocrine disruptors that can adversely affect hormones). We’ll review how to ensure you’re getting a body-safe packer that fits your needs in a little bit. 

Chest binders are compression garments that minimize the appearance of breast tissue, helping people achieve a flatter chest. They come in various styles, including full-tank binders, half-binders, and adjustable options. While chest binding can help alleviate gender-dysphoria, there are certain risks associated with binding. Luckily, there are methods of concealing chest tissue that are less intrusive and can be safe for everyone.

In a world that often imposes rigid standards of beauty and sexuality, the journey toward sexual empowerment and body positivity can feel like a radical act of self-love. These interconnected movements are about more than just accepting our bodies or exploring our desires—they’re about reclaiming our narratives, celebrating our uniqueness, and fostering a culture of inclusivity and respect. Whether you’re just beginning to explore these concepts or are already on the path, understanding the power of sexual empowerment and body positivity can transform the way you see yourself and interact with the world.
