Feeling guilty after sex

from The Hook Up · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

You should never feel ashamed to have sex, but if you grew up being told sex was sinful or wrong, you might still be shouldering a lot of guilt when you have it. Sex therapist Cat O Dowd joins Nat to unpack where those feelings come from and how to deprogram all that shame to enjoy sex without feeling like you're doing something wrong.
