Inclusive Sex Education with Mariah - Ep 30

Sex Education has come a long way in the last century, and yet it still has a ways to go. Abby talks with Inclusive Sex Educator Mariah about some things that are often left out of the classroom, and the home. She shares how comprehensive sex education goes beyond sex and the body, it includes conversations, education, and resources that expand to media literacy, consent, pressures, body awareness, relationships, communication, identity (gender and orientation), and more. It is important to know that this conversation does bring up abuse and may be triggering to some. We encourage listening with a trusted adult or friend. If you are needing support or know someone else that is needing support you can call the Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233 or get more info at https://www.thehotline.org/. ---InstagramMariah advocates for trauma-informed, pleasure-centered, comprehensive sex ed & shares anonymous Qs from youth!---In Your Ellement is a teen-hosted podcast covering conversations with teen allies.
