Like many of us, Zoë Ligon worked a retail job after college. But in her case, it was a sex toy shop, where she would have fascinating interactions with customers. Talking sex with random strangers changed her perspective on sex education, and she began writing about her own experiences on Tumblr – back when Tumblr was still a safe haven for NSFW content. Her blogging became paid gigs, which lead to a social media following, and one of her posts in particular catapulted her to worldwide attention. These days, she's a sex “edutainer” across many platforms, anchored by more than 260,000 followers on Instagram. She's leveraged this online following to launch an online sex toy store called Spectrum Boutique. She's also branched out to online sex work via OnlyFans, brand partnerships, and consulting. This week, the self-proclaimed “Dildo Duchess” joins Matt to discuss how she built her empire. Zoë explains why normalizing kinks and sexual wellness on social media is so important, and why meaningful sex education is so difficult on modern social platforms. She also shares the origin of her book, “Carnal Knowledge,” and the family tragedy that became the catalyst for her business.

Our beliefs about sex and marriage have shifted tremendously over the years – both a reflection and a driver of how we talk about sex. Baby boomers went in search of sex at Woodstock with minimal sexual education. Gen X groped at grunge festivals and in the back seats of cars as the AIDS crisis revealed sex's potential deadly consequences. Millennials found abstinence-only lesson plans in school at odds with the bountiful, never-ending pornography lurking on the internet. How does our age influence our sex lives?

Ever since scientific enquiry began, people have focused mainly on men, or if studies involve animals, on male mice, male rats or whatever it may be. And this has led to gaps in scientists' understanding of how diseases, and responses to treatment, and many other things might vary between people of different sexes and genders.These days, mainly thanks to big funders like the NIH introducing new guidelines and mandates, a lot more scientists are thinking about sex and, where appropriate, gender. And this has led to a whole host of discoveries.But all this research is going on within a sociopolitical climate that's becoming increasingly hostile and polarized, particularly in relation to gender identity. And in some cases, science is being weaponized to push agendas, creating confusion and fear.It is clear that sex and gender exist beyond a simple binary. This is widely accepted by scientists and it is not something we will be debating in this podcast. But this whole area is full of complexity, and there are many discussions which need to be had around funding, inclusivity or research practices.To try to lessen fear, and encourage clearer, less divisive thinking, we have asked three contributors to a special series of opinion pieces on sex and gender to come together and thrash out how exactly scientists can fill in years of neglected research – and move forward with exploring the differences between individuals in a way that is responsible, inclusive and beneficial to as many people as possible.Read the full collection: Sex and gender in science Hosted on Acast.

The five main pillars of health are checking yourself, diet, sleep, exercise and orgasms - that's according to Laura Dowling, AKA The Fabulous Pharmacist, who joins Pat to explain why we are so bad at discussing sex!

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I feel like your inbox for this podcast is full of questions like mine. I've been married for 26 years, and our sex life quietly died about 10 years ago. I've been listening to you both and I know this is normal. What I want to find out is if my wife misses our sex, or if she is happy with not having it? We're best friends and still sleep naked, we just never initiate sex. We've never talked about sex before, even though we both enjoyed it in the past. How do I start the conversation after all this time?2) I'm a 36-year-old man and have just gone through a particularly nasty breakup with my girlfriend of 10 years. I'm not interested in having another relationship for a LONG time, if ever, but I do miss sex. I have a group of close friends, and one of them has intimated she'd be up for a friends-with-benefits arrangement. Seems like a good idea to me. What do you think?3) I hope you can help me because I think I must be a terrible lover. My long-term boyfriend just broke-up with me, and the main reason why was that he didn't enjoy having sex with me. He said I never once initiated sex and didn't ever seem to enjoy it. He knows I don't have much experience and am naturally shy, but said there was ‘lots of other stuff' as well (which he didn't elaborate on). It's stripped me of what little confidence I did have. How do you tell if you're good in bed? What do I have to do to become good in bed?To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

Join us for today's episode, as Ann Nguyen, a somatic sex, love, and relationship coach, shares her wisdom.  Ann speaks about her journey and struggles with burnout and how it gave her fresh insight into her work. Now, she views pleasure as a liberatory practice and channels her work through an intersectional feminist lens, finding inspiration in Tantra, Buddhism, and the proliferation of pleasure, sexuality, and eroticism as fuel.  Ann also shares her process of redefining her sales approach focusing on values and seeing sales calls as a space to be more of a coach to potential clients.  Connect with Ann:  - Website: theannnguyen.com⁠⁠ - Instagram:  @theannnguyen ⁠ Links from Episode: - Cara's Website: ⁠⁠www.carakovacs.com⁠⁠ - Cara's Instagram: ⁠⁠@carakovacscoaching⁠⁠ - Business Witch: The Course:  ⁠https://carakovacs.mykajabi.com/business-witch-2024⁠

We apologize in advance for the less-than-optimal audio quality! Despite that, this is an episode that might challenge or make you uncomfortable. In this episode, Dan McNally and James talk about sex. We delve into the struggles of chastity that men face and the effects of pornography, which a majority of men even within the Church struggle with. We discuss how shame and guilt often lead to habitual practices that make it difficult to overcome and how shame and guilt are similar, yet distinct. Lastly, we discuss self-control, its importance in our spiritual journey, and the significance of humility. Like what you heard? Maybe you just enjoy reading James's show notes?

"If couples can talk more about sex, they end up having better sex." G drops this great quote in this episode. We all have sexual scripts based on what we learned about sex in our families, cultures and societies. These contextual factors can cause us to either be very open, neutral or avoidant when talking about sex. Listen to Laurie and George roleplay a conversation between a sexual withdrawer and sexual pursuer that at first initiates a negative cycle but then works on a repair conversation. As a sexual pursuer, your excitement about the act may lead you wanting to talk about it afterwards. You're really wanting to hear and share about the experience with your lover. A sexual withdrawer may just want to bask in the afterglow and can start to feel the pressure to 'get it right' in that conversation. We also take into account what is happening physiologically after sex. Arousal is a disinhibitor, wherein we feel more free to let go and let pleasure take over. After sex, when no longer aroused you may be feeling more vulnerable as you come back to the self and might not be ready for the debrief.
