Bonk — How Sexual Knowledge Gets Filtered by Institutions
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex by Mary Roach as a systems-level analysis of how stigma, institutional legitimacy, and professional risk shaped the scientific study of human sexuality.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than shock value or anecdote, the episode shows why some areas of sexual physiology remained understudied for so long — and how those blind spots connect to larger systems of medicine, gender, and public discourse.
