Secular Sexuality 08.04 with Christy Powell and Dr. Darrel Ray

You know you’re not a crumpled flower or a chewed up piece of
bubblegum, old ideas of your sexual identity no longer suit you.
Congratulations from us, sincerely. And yet so many of those old
ideas; rigid gender norms, toxic monogamy, patriarchy and
heteronormativity all still live within us. Turns out, that’s by
design. Author of The God Virus and SecX’s creator and producer
emeritus Dr. Darrel Ray returns to the show to share with us some
of the history of modern purity culture and how we can heal and
grow beyond it. All that plus your calls on this week’s Secular
Sexuality.
