Sexual Encounters: The Very First Time is a storytelling podcast about first sexual experiences — the awkward, the emotional, the unexpected, and everything in between. From cultural clashes to dynamic awakenings, this show dives into the deeply personal and the surprisingly universal moments that shape our intimate lives. Created and hosted by MaryJane — an international civil servant by day and a quiet disruptor by nature, based in New York. Through laughter, reflection, and the occasional cringe, she’s here to remind us: everyone has a story — and it’s time we talked about it.

What happens when your first time falls into a legal gray area?
In this episode, we explore the complicated intersection of sex and the law — from age of consent and Romeo & Juliet laws to the wildly different ways jurisdictions define what’s legal, what’s criminal, and what’s left in between.
Sexologist and ethicist Dr. Neil McArthur joins us to break down the myths, talk through close-in-age protections, and help make sense of how even a two-year age gap — like 17 and 15 — can lead to serious consequences, depending on where you live.
Whether you’ve had a first time shadowed by fear or confusion, or you’re just trying to understand how the law shapes real experiences, this episode invites you into a conversation that’s overdue.
