We got to talk to one of our idols, DB from the podcast Sex Ed with DB. Already 5 seasons in to her podcast, DB is an inspiration who works tirelessly to educate people with comprehensive sex ed not only on her show, but also on TikTok, Instagram, and more. She shares how a job teaching English in Israel inspired her to start Sex Ed with DB, how she uses her platform to help amplify the voices of many different kinds of people, and how reproductive justice is a critical element of comprehensive sex ed.

This week we're joined by Chara, owner of theblackbisexual Instagram account, to talk about all things bisexuality. Talking points include kissing girls in bathrooms at school, how straight-passing privilege is just bi-erasure, and biphobia from within the LGBTQ+ community.

Sex education in schools is incredibly heteronormative. Most of the time, the only topics that are covered are safe sex protocols for PIV (penis-in-vagina) sex. Even though many young people identify as LGBTQ+, the ways that they experience their sexuality are never covered. Ignoring queer-inclusive sex ed stigmatizes being LGBTQ+ and can lead to bullying, harassment, and even assault. If sex education were changed to be more comprehensive and inclusive of LGBTQ+ kids, a whole spectrum of sexual orientations, genders, and gender expressions would be normalized.

This episode covers the harm that straight-only sex ed brings to LGBTQ+ students, what queer-inclusive sex ed would look like, and ways that you can help. Don't forget: the Sex Ed Podcast is donating $1 to the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) for every listen that this episode gets in the next month, so please share with your friends!

This week, we talked to the freaking AUTHOR of the The Ethical Slut: Dossie Easton! If you haven't heard of it before, The Ethical Slut is a comprehensive book on ethical non-monogamy that's a must-read for anyone considering the lifestyle. Dossie is not only a writer, sex educator, and psychotherapist, she's also a wealth of useful knowledge and intriguing stories. Our conversation covers topics such as life-changing acid trips, vows to never be monogamous again, the benefits of sex-positivity, raising children in communes, and normalizing the word "slut."

In this episode, we talk to Michelle, the creator of Polyamorous While Asian and the coolest solo polyamorist in Portland. Talking points include the book Sex at Dawn, learning about sex and ethical non-monogamy at the same time, and working towards a more inclusive poly community.

What is ethical non-monogamy? Is it the same thing as polyamory? What about open relationships?

This week, Kaylee and Jen talk about all things non-monogamy–from term definitions to personal experiences, and even how some ethical non-monogamy concepts can greatly improve sex education.
