It seems that sex is having a serious moment in the spotlight, and that might be partly due to the fact we have just stepped out of Masturbation Month (…yep, that’s a thing).
Masturbation Month ran for the month of May, and was all about people owning their own self-pleasure, and vowing to make it less of a taboo. Leading the charge of the conversation was luxury pleasure product brand, Womanizer, and a long list of influencers who have decided it’s time to speak up about what pleasure means to them, and why it’s important women in particular are championing it.
Aussie women are starting to speak up about taking back control of their own pleasure, and here are four women who are leading the charge:
Flex Mami

Flex Mami has long been an advocator for female masturbation, even coining her own #FacilitateYourOwnNut initiative, whereby she profiles her favourite sex toys to “get that gourmet nut”. Ever since Flex became an advocate, it seems her DMs are consistently flooded with questions about recommendations for the best sex toys, and how her audience can also seek that ‘premium nut’. Her favourite toy? The Womanizer Pro 40, and the Womanizer Premium, which have come highly recommended by Flex herself many times. In fact, she was recently part of the Womanizer #SelfPleasurePosse, giving away a product to one of her lucky followers. As if that’s not enough, she also has a Vibe Check highlight on her Instagram where she frequently reviews products, so if you’re in the market, may we suggest that be your first stop?
Kathleen Ebbs
Never one to shy away from a controversial topic or sharing her opinion, Kath Ebbs has recently jumped on the self-pleasure train, talking about how important it is to start normalizing pleasure. Other things she mentioned she does for self-pleasure? She journals, drinks coffee, reads feminist authors, takes a bath, looks at art, reads and writes poetry, and of course, uses her sex toys.
Maggie Zhou
Maggie is all of 21, and it seems she’s already got sexuality and sexual health all figured out. Based in Melbourne, Maggie has blast onto the scene with her vivacious sense of style, colourful aesthetic and no apologies opinions and approach to life. First talking about sex toys with the We-Vibe Chorus, Maggie then spoke about self-pleasure during Masturbation Month, discussing what pleasure means to her. So, what does it mean? Well, besides from getting cosy with her Womanizer Premium, it’s also about reclaiming her femininity, exploring her identity and continually building a health relationship with sex.
Jessica Brody
This ex-Bachie contestant is no stranger to publicly discussing pleasure, between blasting the media for slut-shaming her for ‘watching porn during isolation’ and standing up for female sexuality, so it came as no surprise when she burst onto our feeds in support of Masturbation Month. Jessica spoke of the little joys in life that give her mental clarity and peace as true self pleasure to her, including time with her Womanizer Premium (and a cold glass of wine).
