Ep. 102 - Talking about Sex, Part I
In this episode Bethany and Aaron discuss sex. What makes for good sex? Is there a general ethos regarding sex that we should take into our sexual encounters? What would that ethos be? Does internet porn (in particular) foster an undue sense of control over sexual arousal, leaving us less responsive to the uncertainties that come when engaging with another person? How might capitalist conditions hinder the possibility for better sex? Listen to part I of our discussion, and come back next week, when JP will back with us for part II.
