**COMPETITION** A few weeks ago I disappeared to a hotel with my closest mates for 24 hours (with the š¶š» in tow and a box of 30 donuts) and it felt like two weeks in Barbados. This is your chance to WIN 24 hours away with your friend (and š¶š») for a restorative day and night with @andbreathepostnatal worth Ā£1,000. Simply like this post, follow @andbreathepostnatal and tag your mate/mum/sister below with the reason you both need a break. The winners will be picked at random and announced here on Thursday night at 8pm #competition #imaparentgetmeoutofhere

The response weāve had on Twitter to this topic has been huge. Porn. The effect it has on your relationship. Whether it turns you on or becomes a reason to break it off. Whether itās something that disgusts or arouses; disappoints or tittilates. Is it your dirty little secret? Something to watch from the confines of the downstairs loo? On silent in the bogs at work? PornHubās latest stats say more women than ever are watching it. Journalist @amancalledmark was on our @thisisheart show saying itās gay male porn weāre now watching because it saves us from degrading heterosexual submissive scenarios that generally have a MILF being sexually chastised for not putting the ironing board away correctly. But the general consensus is that it happens, itās often a personal thing and itās generally not something to worry about. Whatās the harm? But thatās where I veer off; in the face of young male impotency rates increasing rapidly because they simply arenāt turned on by anything that isnāt a tight šŗ and a pneumatic breast, isnāt porn setting the next generation up for a huge sexual fall? Will the āboys will be boysā rhetoric simply live on in the underbelly of PornHub and, in turn, their minds? #pornfree #thisisheart #liveradio **If you want to listen to this episode on our podcast Ellie and Anna Have Issues the link to download is in my bio**

I read this on a Facebook parenting page last night: āBut Iām a full time mother not a working mother.ā Full-time mothers are all mothers. Thereās no part-time option in the face of 24/7 concern over jabs, a niggling cough, a lingering worry over how many vegetables have been consumed in the last year or whether youāre doing enough, playing enough, reading enough, being enough. Whether its 42 hours a week strapped to a rickety office chair, shop floor, Costa counter to earn a crust or strapped to a š¶š» Mon-Fri, parenting is a full time role. An often fulfilling, frequently mind/fanny-breaking, completely body and life-altering position. One that comes without fair remuneration, without annual reviews and without an option to move company and delete it from your LinkedIn profile when the shit hits the fan. Stay at home (no parents I know stay at home; kids need airing), work away (no parents I know are mentally away; being separated from š¶š»š§š¼ causes deep-rooted anxiety), weāre all working.

What it was like being at the messy, painful and eye-opening heart of a public diversity row and why Iāll never be a perfect feminist. Thanks @graziauk for having me on your podcast and asking the difficult questions I havenāt been asked before. The best piece of life advice Iāve been given? āListening isnāt just waiting to talkā from my friend (and š§š¼ās godfather) @amancalledmark. That was something that got me through the above when I thought it was time to close down my account and bow out disgracefully. But the one thing I have learned campaigning here is that you sometimes have to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Link to listen in my bio #lifelessons #grazia
