Jo (00:03.438)

You're listening to the Girls Get Off podcast, an R18 podcast in all things female pleasure. Think girl talk, but real girl talk, where we chat all things masty, self-loving, sex, orgasms, and more. Nothing is off limits, which means you get all the secrets even our guests BFFs don't know. We're on a mission to make talking about getting off as fun as actually doing it. Ready to join the Mastination? Let's get into it. Hello and welcome to the Girls Get Off podcast. If you're new here, we're Viv and Jo, founders of sexual wellness brand Girls Get Off.

This season, the pod has had a of a glow up and we're excited to share with you our weekly segment, The Weekly Quickie. This is where we keep you updated on what's happening in the GGO world, what's new in electric toothbrushes and what's going on in our lives. We'll release an episode every Wednesday, so make sure to follow the podcast and do us a favour and share it with your friends. And today I have seen the rundown on what we're talking about and I'm so excited to hear about

Viv's essential massage story. I actually saw this in the calendar last week and I haven't had a chance to ask you about it. So can't wait. Great. Let's get into it. What's been happening in the GDO world? All right. Well, first, let's kick things off at the the lowest rung and let's talk about, well, not the lowest rung. We'll kick things off on the easy level. Level one. Let's talk about toy colors. This has been a big topic of discussion between us and also

AJ Papp, so we're gonna do another collab with soon and we've been back and forth around toy colours. And I will just say for starters that I just sort of let you choose now. unless something looks extremely rogue, I'm just a believer in you could just, talking about colours and stuff is just like a never ending, like there's no right or wrong. You know what I mean? But then we've had some back and forth. Yep, yep, we have. So.

I think right back at the start, right? Like I've always been a fan of like a clean white. And before everybody's like, it's going to get dirty, it's going to get dirty. The thing is we only ever use medical grade silicon, like the highest quality that you can get. And because it's such high quality, we don't have that issue of it gets dirty. There's no little grooves or anything that can hold stuff in. So.

Jo (02:24.084)

with that in mind. And I get that even though it might be the case that, you know, it still plays on people's mind that it might get dirty, so they're less likely to like it. But just from a creative perspective, like I just I've loved that cleanness, the and off white, I shouldn't say like bright white, like a nice off white. So I'm team off white. But I think it was I would do our whole

external range, off-white, if I could. This conversation actually first came up before we released Dee Dee. And we were having a call with a mentor who said, and I think Joe was like, how about nice off-white pink accents? And he said, people are gonna put that up their bum. Do not make that white. And we were like, we didn't even think about that, but you're so right, people will still be putting Dee Dee up their butt. So we didn't go for the off-white in that case. And that's why Joe was mentioning.

external toys in case you're using them on your period or you're using them in your Bart then yeah. Yeah and even though you still see whatever show up on the pink like on the white I get that it you know it's a bigger thing. So anyway it's always just been you know when you really like something and then it won't go out of your head so it's always just been in my head and yeah I brought it up again for a collab we have coming up another one with AJ and

he said the dirty thing again. And so I thought I'm just gonna put it on the stories. And I just love how engaged our audience is and such great feedback coming through. before you tell me the results, because I haven't seen it, I would just like to say for the off white, I reckon there are toys out there that look really good. I just care about what is gonna sell at the end of the day. Because I know, for example, like I'm all for if you want to do white. And I also think that when

you're trying to be different. Yes, asking people is good, but then there's also an element of sometimes people don't know what they want, you know? So I'm like, yeah, sometimes the supply can be good, but then also people are gonna buy and then you ultimately don't know these things until you actually release it and people kind of buy. So yeah, first story, I put like cream or pink, like a creamy white or a pink, and I think three quarters are saying pink.

Jo (04:49.174)

Still a decent amount for creamy white considering the amount of voters in the stories. So that's cool. But then I, on the next one, I was like, why? Why the pink? You know? And still so much of the comments coming through, there's two kind of standouts. One is that pink's just everybody's favorite color, which is really cool to know. And the second,

is that even though I said that it's medical grade silicon and stuff, they said it still looks old, still looks dirty, still looks this. So I'm happy, you I just want to do what will sell too. And even though in my mind, I look at what's going to look prettiest in the packaging and on the website and stuff like that, and I like it, that doesn't mean that it's what's going to sell. So I think we're pretty safe based on the vote so far that our toys are staying pink. And I also think

that this also goes to show the power of getting feedback from people. like, when we were doing the Freak Sheet and going through all of that, we were figuring out, and Jo's always on this, this is her domain, so like figuring out what's something that you would buy as a blanket that you wouldn't, you don't want people to know that it's a Freak Sheet, a waterproof blanket, so what can we do that's as close as possible to something that you would have on the end of your bed?

AKA not like a blank blanket, a black or dark blue blanket. However, every time I've told people about the freak sheet, they either don't really get it, like why would I need that? Or they're like, my God, I need that. We have a period towel at home. And it's been years since I had sex with someone regularly enough to have period sex. Also, I skip my period all the time. That's the beauty of modern medicine and the pills. So that's just not a problem that I experience. And then, like, was it something that had popped up for you? I feel like we were like,

Oh yeah, period sex, like that is a big thing. We were more like making a mess. I'm like, live in Australia, it's so sweaty. Yeah, so no, feedback is key. Feedback is key and at the end of the day, we are making products for everybody else, not for ourselves. So what we might prefer does not win at the end of the day. 100%. The other thing that happened last Friday was we lost our TikTok account. So that's great.

Jo (07:11.886)

TikTok for us, we had, yeah, every day we just update you on something we've lost touch with. Surely we've got a break now. With our TikTok account, I mean, we had followers, was girlsgetoff.hq. The girlsgetoff account is still up there, we might just revamp that one. But it's never been something we've paid as much attention to as Instagram. you know, I know that it's not gonna affect our sales. So I'm less worried about that one. Also TikTok.

Were you ever on TikTok? I was never on TikTok checking if we had different things flagged. So we just randomly schedule stuff there. No, last time I checked, think we're at about 107,000 followers, I think when I checked last. So it was starting to, you know, I think we're shadow banned for so long there that we just kind of gave up on followers and stuff even. So sometimes a video would kick off. I think our content was just wrong for TikTok. Like it's just like if someone was trying to go a Facebook page and remember we didn't.

Back in the day, people who were often older with small businesses would post to Instagram like they would Facebook. Like imagine a patterned background with we're open or something and they put it on their Instagram feed. Like that's that was us to TikTok. Yeah, that was us to TikTok. were like boomers. Yeah. So, and also it wasn't a priority because we didn't have a TikTok shock.

in our location as well. yeah, now as that's kind of rolling out a bit more, yeah, we'll get stuck into the girls get off account, which is a better name anyway. It's a bit of a win. All right. Can we jump into this essential massage chat? I killing me. Okay. I went and had a central massage the other week, last Wednesday.

I'd originally booked it for Saturday. I was going to have a glorious luxury self-care day. I was well overdue and I had it booked in for the afternoon. A friend asked if I wanted to go hiking. I said, absolutely. Just let me book, like let me reschedule my sensual massage. And unless I wanted to have it like all the way in November, I was like, well, Wednesday morning, 9 a.m. it is. the perks of working for yourself.

Jo (09:35.33)

The perks of working for yourself. Exactly. was like, why not? This is just, this is what life is for. So I went and the reason I'd heard about this was because a friend of mine, her and her partner from time to time would get a tantric coach to come, I don't know, if they were away for the Blue Mountains together, they'd get a tantric coach to come and visit them and say my friend and the tantric coach would...

learn how to do, like she would teach you how to do Lingam massage or penis massage on her husband and then vice versa. So her husband and the coach would then do like Yoni massage on her and full body sensual. And so she'd recommended this person before and because I'm, know, in my, what would I say? What's the best way to say that? Because I'm trying to put the right energy out into the universe. like, we are touch starved because I haven't had sex in a while and you know what I need? A sensual massage. This is

Perfect, like this is the ultimate act of self care and also because you know when you just get into a little bit of We're all the same. I don't know about you, but I just get start masturbating the same way and I'm like, I know that there's more pleasure out there. I'm just being lazy So I kind of wanted a little like reset of connecting to my body Okay, can you just first off? What is the difference between essential massage and a rub and tug? Well, this is more

sort of tantric. I assume after I've told lots of friends about this, apparently there's a place in Bondi called Miss Massage that's like $70 and they ask you, I don't know if this is outing people, and they ask you if you want a little HJ at the end. But I don't think this is, I'm talking about like I booked like an hour and a half.

For $70 or is that an extra? No, no, no. I think I paid $330 or something for an hour and a half. I booked an extra half hour because I knew that I'd take a long time to get into the zone. So was like, longer the better, treat yourself, you know? And this is not a 90-minute rub and tug. This is fully tantric. It's woo-woo. You're not down at the...

Jo (11:39.192)

Thai massage place with a plastic divider in between you and the next person. It isn't just get off. It's all about pleasure. know I've had a yawning mapping before. I know how much pleasure is in my body. I'm just, I just also have a lot of self-awareness that I'm lazy. This is like if you're training for a marathon and you know you should stretch, but it's just easy to pay a sports massage, you know, a sports for a sports massage. This is like, I know that if I had some luxury afternoon winks.

I can kind of get into the flow of things, but I'm like, oh, I could just lie there and someone else could do this for me. That'd be great. And I'm also not seeing anyone at the moment, so I'm not gonna like go through. Also, we'll come back to that. When I do start seeing someone, this is gonna be like top five activities to do. This is 100 % I would do this with a partner. Is this with a girl or a guy? A girl. Also, you could, was there a guy available? I don't think there were three practitioners. There weren't any guys available, but I think for me,

the thought of a guy, if I'm sure anyone in the space would be really professional, but I'd already had a recommendation from this. I know that there's probably cowboys out there who are doing random bits and pieces and you never know what it's going to be like. So I just wanted to go off for recommendation. And I also think that not that I would sexualize someone who was giving me one of these messages, but I don't know how I would react.

with a guy. I'm sure it would be fine, but the idea of a girl just seems more like chill and safe, like, you know? Okay. Less likely to try and like jump him or? I'm like... I guess a girl I'm not attracted, like I'm not attracted, like there's no question if I'm attracted to her or not. So it's like, that's just... know exactly where I stand. Yeah. Whereas some people are like, I couldn't do, you know, that would feel strange to them. But for me that...

was a really easy choice. And when I turned up, I was quite nervous. I was like, God. Also, I must say I booked this before we even started doing this podcast again. So I had this content loaded up. Thank God we started the podcast. Otherwise you would have only heard about this in one of our daily calls. And I rocked up, was a little bit nervous, went in and she was just exactly how you'd expect. walk up the stairs, nice like white trailing.

Jo (13:59.71)

scarfy things up there, smelled like she'd saged the room when I arrived. Her voice was slow, reminded me of someone who'd been meditating or something, whereas I'm like, hi, how are you? You know, also a bit nervous. I'm a yapper as it is. I'm like, this is why I booked an hour and a half. Then go and have a shower, leave your clothes in there, go into the other room, the massage room. And then I just lie down on the bed. She works through a...

ask me a few different questions. What are you here to achieve? What's your intention? Are you okay with internal stimulation? Blah, blah. I'm like, yes, let's go. And then it starts out like a normal massage. So I'm on my back. I've got a towel over the top of me and she'll work down and say one side of, what is it? Like the top quarter of my body, know, left quarter first. And then she'll go over to the right quarter and then the left leg and then the right leg.

At this stage, can you enjoy your massage or are you just like freaking out about what's to come, like nervous about what's to come? This is why I booked the hour and a half because I know that I have a very active brain and when it was probably, if we're talking in quarters, it was probably back, back, leg until my, when I was learning to meditate, they call it the monkey mind, the...

had like chilled out and I was just like relaxing and I was finally nice and slow and do you know I have never like we've sold these before but I've never used them on anyone because I just thought like oh they really that great. Feathers have you had someone run a feather all over your body before? I know right? just is like. I don't have anybody to rub a feather all over my body. Yeah and also I've always just been like.

yeah, of course it's in the couple's box. Little bit of fun, I guess if you really wanted to spice it up. But the way the massage went is she would run the feathers across my body first and then she would do like her fingertips and then it would be like the oil and then it would be a massage. Normal. my gosh. That sounds like incredible. That sensation, like those different levels of sensation. I mean, I'm still like, at the start. But then by the time she's across, actually she must...

Jo (16:20.12)

This is not important, but anyway, she must have gone left side first and then right side because I think it took one side of my body before I chilled out. And then by the time she got to my top right hand quarter, my right arm, when she put the feathers over the top of my arm, like here, I was like, my God, that feels amazing. And it reminded me of listening to the trainee sexologist where Morgan,

The sexologist talks about how she found touching her wrists really arousing after doing 30 minutes of play per day. And it just felt insane. And I was like, this is exactly why I booked this. then I was thinking like, I feel like an absolute queen. Like this was just the perfect thing that I needed. Just fully receive all this.

like attention and pleasure. And in my head I was like, next time I'm gonna book two people so I can have two sides happening at once. I'm like, this is insane. my gosh. Love it. And so then it was like full back and then onto the front and then yeah, all over my back. And then I flip over and then I think she must've done my legs, my arms, then did like breast massage and then went down to like yawning area genitals, did like the outsides all.

like all around the vulva and so on and then like did internal and it was just like lit. was just she tell you when she was, was she talking you through this? Like and telling you when she was gonna go internal or anything or she was just listening to your body? Yeah, was, yeah, from time to time but at the same time it was like a relaxing, yeah, she was very good at communicating what she was gonna do and like nothing was a surprise and it was just amazing.

And it was just epic. And I was like, this is, I can even tell the way that when I'm feeling heaps of pleasure, my default and what I've, I guess, trained myself to do is sort of like tense up to make the orgasm happen. But she was saying things like, or even if I feel like as she was rubbing over my clit, feeling like that was almost getting too sensitive. And she would say, let the energy like spread. And when I thought about like breathing out and letting that pleasure spread all over my body, I was like,

Jo (18:42.062)

oh my gosh, I'm like, that really works for it not to feel over sensitized. And so it was like, it's always a good learning going to these things, isn't it? So that was just amazing. Highly recommend. I was like, I felt like a new person back in the shower, had a little rinse, had some water, done, easy. Thoughts, feelings? I'm in my head going, could I do this?

with a stranger and I don't know the answer. I do not know the answer to that. Like yes, tickle the boxes, like give me the feather, the tickle, everything with a partner. But I'm like, could I, I would crack jokes. I'm like, I don't think I could, I don't think I could get in the zone. Well, I think that's why, yeah, I mean, you could crack jokes if you wanted to, but like.

Yeah, not everyone. I mean, like I've talked to friends before and a friend of mine would say, if I'm feeling really touched up, I just go and book a massage. And I kind of had her in my mind when I thought, well, I'm going to do that, but I'm also going to get the full package. You know, I'm not just going to go for a sports massage and actually can I just say. much classier than the $70 rub and tug. Yeah. And unless I was getting a sports massage, would way, way rather this as a relaxing, like way to relax and receive NKRI, it's triple the price. But that was just outstanding. And I think because

For me, it is transactional as well. Unless a guy was really confident and like was, I could explain to someone what I liked. However, unless like to explain to someone, hey, I'd like a one and a half hour sensual massage. Like unless they were really into that, it'd take me a while to like calm down, especially if like these people train for it, they're professionals. So that's why I'm saying when I start seeing someone, we're doing this together to learn for each other.

And then secondly, I think I felt so comfortable because it was transactional. Like I'm like, I've paid for this. So this is for me. And it's like, it was a treat. It was the best thing ever. And I guess that's the difference between a man seeing a man and a lady is I think I would question whether they're getting enjoyment out of it too with a man, I think. You know, like.

Jo (21:02.08)

and nothing against me doing it. think it, you know, just a personal, it would just be another voice in my head. Yeah. And it does take, like it takes a while. think that is half the reason I went right, because I knew that my mind has been so active. I needed to like reconfigurate things to get into my body more. And it does take a while when you're online and being like.

Oh my God, what if I don't even like that this much? Does this even feel that good? You know, just a thousand miles an hour. Like, just like relax, relax. And I'm like just focusing on my breathing and I just know that it takes time. And I will also say, and I know this podcast is only supposed to be 15 minutes, but I'm pretty sure people like hearing about sensual massages. We also haven't talked about the after effects of this. Do you have any more questions before I talk about this? No, no. Firstly,

I've had the most incredible mass sessions by myself afterwards. Everything's activated, feels so good. Secondly, in terms of woo woo-ness, look, don't know if someone, someone the other day told me that numerology wise, September is a nine, it's supposed to be to do with beginnings or closure. I just talked to ChatGPT, I don't really know if it's that strong. Ninth of the ninth, apparently, it's a little while ago now. But if we're talking about general pussy power,

yawning energy, going woo woo down that path. Had that done on Wednesday. Thursday, had situationship from years ago message me. Friday morning, I had another old flame message me. Within half an hour, another old guy that I had spoken to on an app and we'd added on each other on WhatsApp together also messaged me on Friday. And then on Monday, I had someone else message me. Who slept with last you posted any thirst traps? this was just like, they all messaged me.

Three of them messaged me within 12 hours. I don't talk to these people very often. Like I'm saying I haven't talked to two of these people in months. One of them I'd been talking to. And I also, I mean, we all know when it rains it pours, but I was like, that's some good energy out in the universe. And on top That's also for me a good reason to steer away from it because none of the exes in my past, I would want to be coming back into my future. So.

Jo (23:24.438)

I'll leave that there. But I get what you mean. Had it not have been an old flame, it's just allowing the energy, Well, and also I think I also at the same time feel very empowered to be like, well, I didn't even reply to one who knows exactly what he needs to do if he'd like to be in my life or other people who I'm like, just not even that interested in something that's not going to be someone who will give you a central message, I'm sure.

that became, but I'm not like, I'm like, it's just not the connection I'm looking for. So how's that for pussy power? Well, and for the people listening, is a difference between your partner giving you, like if you're a guy listening, there's a difference between saying to your partner, I'll give you a sensual massage and just like using it to get sex because that is so fucking obvious, you know? So just don't even, two different things guys. Don't think like this is all about receiving. Yeah, it's all about just

being there and receiving and being treated and if it turns into something later, great, but actually the, Yeah, I think we've all had the, I'll give you a massage and then like two minutes later you got a finger slipping and also when someone, massages make me a bit nervous. Like I feel like you can do damage giving someone a massage if it's not done right, you know? Like you're lying on a bed with your head tilted to one side. It's like.

massages at Vietnam. I'm like, I'm pretty sure you're making this up. All right, well, let's leave that one there then. And we've got on the list to talk about your dating app stories, Jo, but I guess I'll have to wait till next week so we can keep this one short and convenient for people.
