Welcome back! Episode 3 is a ‘sub-episode’, the first of a series of conversations with guest speakers, using the previous episode as a starting point. This one is about bodies. If you haven’t listened to the Bodies episode, we’d suggest doing that as we reference it here.
Here, Josie Dale-Jones chats to Toni Lewis and Kate Lovell (@katejlovell).
Here is a list of some of the other materials or cultural references we mention: The Inbetweeners on E4, Sex Education on Netflix, The Churchill Dog, A Dropbox, Politics of Desire, Infograpics, Checklists, Normal People on BBC.
The Family Sex Show Starts Here explores themes around gender, sexuality bodies, pleasure, relationships and boundaries. In this sub-episode we chat about ableism, pregnancy, birth, difficult births and desexualisation. We talk about pleasure, and discuss the focus of sex being dominated by penatration. We talk about body image, beauty standards, fatism, fatphobia, weight bias and weight loss groups. We talk about rope tying and BDSM, gender identity, repression, and stereotypes. We talk about consent. These episodes are conversations. They do not offer solid answers. Sometimes opinions are offered, but they are not necessarily finished. We invite you to keep questioning what is said, to discover what feels right for you, and what doesn’t. This is your conversation as much as it is ours. If you feel comfortable listening, do that in a way that best suits you.
