Sex education seems like one of those fields where it’s all fun and games until you have to explain to someone why their favorite TV show is actually sexist AF. And yes, we like to have a good time, I swear we don’t do this on purpose, but unfortunately, a lot of things in life really are secretly sexist. So we invited a sanity saving social media siren to our secular podcast on sexuality to suss out the shameful and the silly in our unsceptically scrupulous society and hopefully to make a slightly better world. Catch the conversation between Christy and Eve Was Framed as we explore the day to day patriarchy of ‘Man Cave’s and more, plus what’s turning us on this week on SecX!
