Growing up in the countryside in the 90s there wasn’t much else to do than get off with boys. And every crush and heartbreak was an education
In the midst of a full Edinburgh fringe run of a new show, called Wench, I am awash with fond memories of a lifetime spent attempting sluttery. No shame in that. It’s 2022. No one was harmed in the making of that fun.

Jessica Fostekew is a comedian, actor and writer. Her show Wench is at Monkey Barrel Comedy, Edinburgh, until 28 August
