TwoX Labs

In this episode of TwoX Labs, Dr. Erika Miley sits down with Julia Postema and Jeremiah Gibson, AASECT Certified Sex Therapists and co-hosts of the podcast Sexvangelicals: The Sex Education the Church Didn’t Want You to Have. Together, they unpack purity culture’s “Seven Sexual Sins” — from “don’t have sex before marriage” to “don’t have desires at all” — and explore how these harmful messages shape sex, gender roles, and power dynamics inside couples’ therapy rooms.

They talk about what happens when one partner starts to deconstruct purity culture and the other doesn’t, the grief and rage that can bubble up, and how therapists and couples can navigate these conflicts without slipping back into moralism. Julia and Jeremiah share practical insights for working with shame, porn, gender roles, and the tricky mess of rebuilding intimacy when old purity scripts still haunt modern relationships.
