010 - Sex Ed Part One

Against the backdrop of gender-based violence, hook-up culture, a wholly inadequate understanding of consent by many, sexual abuse, rampant sexism and misogyny, and a lack of sexual and gender inclusivity – which leads to real harm for LGBTQIA folk – I have come to believe that a prudish approach to sex ed is damaging, and we must do better. We need to help children and teenagers understand what it means to be good sexual citizens. My Canadian friend, Ashley joins me for part one of this conversation.
