It's time to teach kids about human sexuality beyond the procreative act, says sexuality educator, Justine Ang Fonte. In the episode we discuss:
-Why sexuality education tends to reduce our bodies to their reproductive function - and what is problematic about this
-Why human sexuality is equally about pleasure, intimacy, agency, and personal power, and how to talk to kids about these things
-Justine’s introduction to teaching sex ed and why she’s so passionate about enacting reform in this area
-Why all non-procreative sex - including queer sex, masturbation, and sex work - is still so stigmatized
-Why we can’t have a real conversation about consent without centering pleasure - since consent begins with asking, “does this feel good?”
-Why male sexual entitlement stems from the notion that women’s bodies belong first and foremost to society as the means of reproduction
-Why talking about a “gender-full” world is part of dismantling reductive gender roles in the realm of human sexuality
-The role of intimacy education and teaching about healthy relationships in the context of sex ed.
-Why Justine does not expect to see a truly sexually liberated society in her lifetime - and why this won’t stop her continuing to work towards this
