#86 | What’s Missing in the Culture of Female Sexuality?

We live in a world that loves to slap a pretty pink bow on something we’d rather not acknowledge, like covering a zit with a glittery cute little star. Prostitution has existed since the beginning of time but today we’re pretending it’s something that it’s not. This has created a strangely fine line between casual sex and “sex work.” I want to unpack the tension point between sex and sexual empowerment as they are not one and the same. This episode is about female sexuality, the harm of casual sex for women, what women’s healing really is, and more.*The documentary I mention is ‘Strip Down, Rise Up’ based on the program the S Factor by Sheila KelleyTimestamps:00:00 - 00:35 Episode Trailer00:35 - 01:10 Intro and Episode Overview01:10 - 03:38 Are we just Pretending?03:38 - 06:31 Sugar baby-daddy dynamics06:31 - 07:47 Did she embellish?07:47 - 09:33 The evolution of prostitution09:33 - 11:07 When is a woman in touch with her sexuality?11:07 - 15:13 What is sexual empowerment for women?15:13 - 18:16 The pole-dancing course for empowerment18:16 - 20:15 This is female de-empowerment20:15 - 21:45 Differences between men and women21:45 - 22:02 Final thoughts22:02 - 22:43 Outro
