There’s a conversation everyone has at some point, about the birds and the bees. Think back to the first time you had that talk. Maybe it was with a parent, maybe a friend, maybe someone else. Maybe it was sex ed class. That’s what this episode dives into. We go back in time to look at some different sexual practices across ancient history, including Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. Then we discuss the history of sexual education in a formal setting, as it transitioned from the early 1900s into what it looks like today!

Check out our Feminist Corner discussion questions after listening and send us your thoughts! 

• Thoughts? 
• What was your experience with sex ed? How does it fit into the narratives we’ve talked about this episode?
• What gender inequalities are reinforced by sex ed programs as they exist now and changes are being made/need to be made to improve sexual health?
