wow because when she talks about her 20s and early days on YT she definitely gives the impression of sleeping around a lotThe irony is, from what I can see and know about Hannah and Mel, I don’t think they actually slept around a lot in their 20s.
I remember someone from GG mentioning they had mutual friends and Hannah came across as a serial monogamist

As someone who was on the same course as Hannah, she definitely slept around a lot. At uni anyway. After uni, I have no idea.The irony is, from what I can see and know about Hannah and Mel, I don’t think they actually slept around a lot in their 20s.

I also knew her at uni and echo this.
The amount of people she’s slept with means nothing if it was all just plain old vanilla sex (not saying there’s anything wrong with jt) but if you’re going to try and talk about different kinds of sex then it’s much more beneficial if you’ve experienced some of it. Not saying she has to try everything but then stop trying to talk about stuff you don’t know anything about.
A bit of internet research about a topic doesn’t make for good sex education content. People watching can google themselves.

I really enjoyed Hannah's pregnancy vlogs, has anyone come across another UK vlogger who has done something similar? I liked that she shared what happened in each appointment, symptoms etc. Hannah's felt a lot more personal because she was vlogging as she went rather than it being a retrospective overview of the trimester.
I know she's not very popular with a lot of people, but xameliax has just started uploading pregnancy vlogs, and she's posted a 0-4 week vlog and a 4-7 week vlog so far. She's also been talking in quite a lot of detail about her symptoms and appointments. She's currently 5 months pregnant so imagine there will be a lot of content uploaded over the next few weeks now she's announced her pregnancy.
Thanks! I used to follow her and didn't mind her content so I'll give them a go
I think there’s also the fact that just having hooked up with a bunch of people and had one or two more ongoing relationships is also not an especially singular source of insight if your whole thing is positioning yourself as an Actual Expert. I’m not suggesting you need to be eg a regular frequenter of hard kink events or to have been married 45 years to be a useful source of information about sex, but I can’t really think of a single thing she’s talked about in her content that isn’t either kind of self-evident/common sense, available to read about in detail on the NHS website or just Teen Vogue-tier right-on fluff. I think given her health history it’s perhaps not v fair to highlight the fact that she doesn’t do anal as indicative of being too vanilla to do her job, but she didn’t even know about the basic chronological patterns and mechanics of ovulation when she started TTC. Her actual level of knowledge seems to me to be pretty much on a par with the median laywoman. There is value in the collation and useful presentation of open source information, but it doesn’t make you an expert.

Hannah has had sex educator training though hasn't she, and its something she does outside of YouTube? I think she goes into schools and stuff. So it's not just her own anecdotal personal experiences, there's often references and research there.
I do think when it comes to sexual activities she doesn't engage in (like the pegging video) then sometimes it might help to share the platform with someone who has more experience, whether or not there's someone appropriate and willing to do that is another thing I guess.

I do feel like she does a pretty good job at sharing her platform in general. Like with her book, didn't she get like 15 people who had different experiences to speak on things?
Ok we’re going to need more tea from the Tattlers who were at uni with her!
Lol, I still remember when she tried to conceive and didn't use ovulation tests correctly. It took her such a long time to figure out that she basically had to use them daily to figure out her exact fertile window. This seems like basic logic?!
I don’t really have more tea! She was pretty much as she appears online: nice, genuine enough, bragged a bit about her sex life and a bit self absorbed but really nothing scandalous.
I get the opinion she may have had a lot of sex but none of it was particularly adventurous sex. Hate to say it but her whole persona of "being very open and knowledgeable about sex" screams uni pick-me girl who hasn't actually done much sexually.
Vanilla goes with everything.
I can't get over her stilted delivery. Has she always been like that and I'm only noticing it this year?

Yeah, back that up. She was a very pick-me girl and self-absorbed, but nothing scandalous.
I remember once her telling a group of us how she went to a show of some performer just to sleep with him. I can't remember if he was a singer or comedian or something, but she boasted how she waited at his stage door for hours after the show just to corner him and convinced him to sleep with her. I found that a bit creepy, especially if you think of the genders being reversed, but that's about it.
I feel like on the recent ‘more Hannah’ video with Jessica K-F Hannah really just isn’t listening to Jessica. You can see her just ready to talk the second she can. If that makes sense? But maybe I’m overanalysing
I noticed this too. TBH I found their video together really awkward! They just have completely different energies. Maybe they get on in real life, but it didn't translate well in a sit-down video. Jessica is very calm, eloquent and thoughtfully spoken, whereas Hannah is prone to word vomiting and goofing her way through every sentence.
