Unravel the secrets of how sexual shame impacts our relationships and parenting. With renowned sex and gender feminist psychotherapist, Dr. Tina Schermer Sellers, we delve into the underexplored territories of how shame in our sexual lives can hinder our ability to foster fulfilling relationships. Dr. Sellers' groundbreaking research exposes the profound effects of patriarchy and sexual shame on our relationships, and how it may hinder our ability to raise confident children. 

We navigate the complex labyrinth of sexual shame's influence on relationships, culture, and personal narratives. From its genesis in pre-verbal interactions and societal messages to the damaging effects of inadequate sexual education, we dissect various aspects of this sensitive subject. Under the microscope is rape culture's role in promoting sexual shame and the dysfunctions arising from it, such as vulnerability and distrust in our decisions about safety and autonomy in our sexual relationships.

Approaching the subject of parenting without sexual shame, we offer valuable advice and resources for parents wanting to build a sex-positive legacy. We highlight the significance of child sexual abuse education training, the dynamics of power in abuse situations, and the dire need for mandatory sex education training among physicians. Concluding our journey, we underscore the importance of candid conversations on sexual health and its potential for fostering healthier relationships, reducing STIs and teen pregnancy rates. Join us as we unravel the intricate narrative of sexual shame and its far-reaching impact on our lives.
