In this raw and unfiltered episode, Nicolene and Jana talk about their experiences with sex education in South Africa. They start by reflecting on shocking Sunday school lessons and the awkward conversations about sex in their formative years. Then they turn to contemporary thinkers who expose the limits of sex education today, like relationship-guru Esther Perel and the feminist philosopher Amia Srinivasan. 

Despite wanting to say A LOT more, especially about popular culture and sex in the Afrikaner context, the conversation had to end abruptly. Let us know if you want a follow-up chat!
