Have you ever used an under-inflated rubber doll to jumpstart your reunion-slash-sex party? Sex educator Reid Mihalko spends more than a year hunkered down with his partner during the pandemic, which sets a personal record: the longest time he's ever gone without a threesome. No more! Reid hatches a plan to host a writer's retreat in a Northern California yurt with many of his sex-positive friends, and after travel and quarantining and rapid tests, nobody remembers how to connect anymore. What better way to get your strap-on gangbang going than to put that board game blow-up doll to good use? Well, this isn't going into the memoir I'm writing, is it? #InflatableBro#Shiny #Squeaky #Plastic #LongDryPandemic #ThisIsMyLife Song: 'Do you Take it' (The Wet Spots) About the Storyteller: Sex and relationship geek Reid Mihalko of ReidAboutSex.com helps adults and college students create more self-esteem, self-confidence, and greater health and accountability in their relationships and sex lives using an inspiring mixture of humor, personal stories, keen insight, and comprehensive sexual health information.
