Listen Later

Dr. Candice is an award winning Psychologist, Sexologist, and Professor of counseling psychology and researcher of sexual wellness and liberation, host of two dope ass podcasts “Fuck the System” and “How to Love a Human.” She has also been published over 50 times. 

 

Some Big Takeaways from Our Conversation with Dr. Candice:


  • Racial Discrepancies in Sexuality: The differences between growing up and experimenting with your relationship to sexuality as young Black woman vs a young white woman  
  • Socioeconomic Status Matters: We discuss the socioeconomic narratives, and social norms in those spaces, that shape opinions around certain sexual experiences, and how that shapes someone’s relationship to sexuality as they grow 
  • Prioritize Your Pleasure: Let’s flip the script on performative sexual experiences and the importance of prioritizing pleasure for yourself
  • Choosing Sex vs Choosing Partnership: Patriarchal limitations that attempt to differentiate partnered and unpartnered women, and the social norms that attempt to devalue women who are ‘chosen’ sexually but not ‘chosen’ for partnerships
