How To Make Up For Horrible Sex Ed? | Cal-UT | Secular Sexuality 07.39

Описание: We throw a lot of new words around (it’s all poly-viking-power-bottom this and demisexual compersion that) but when these words really define a piece of who you are it becomes all the more important that your therapist speaks your language. Talk therapy loses a lot of momentum when you have to pause your explanation of your self to constantly explain yourself and yet most therapists make it through their many years of training without any special understanding of queer culture or human sexuality. This summer Grace Stephenson launched Glimmer, a safe & empowering online space for womxn, QTBIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ communities to find sexual and mental health professionals. Grace joins the show to explain the need for culturally competent and sex positive therapy and to take your calls on the October 1st episode of Secular Sexuality.

WHAT IS THE SECULAR SEXUALITY?

Secular Sexuality is a weekly call-in show live from Austin, Texas every Thursday at 7pm CT. We talk about sex from a secular perspective. Sex and sexuality are natural to all living creatures, but religion takes this and twists it into something awful and to be ashamed of.

Acceptance, education, and fun is what we strive for. We lay the intersection of sex and religion (and occasionally ourselves) bare, openly and honestly. We discuss a wide range of topics each week, removing the shame and reclaiming what has been natural to us all along. Secular Sexuality is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.

The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.
