Jesse Bering (2012) | We Are All Sexual Perverts

We may not want to admit it, but there is a spectrum of
perversion along which we all sit. Whether it’s voyeurism,
exhibitionism, or your run-of-the-mill foot fetish, we all
possess a suite of sexual tastes as unique as our
fingerprints—and as secret as the rest of the skeletons we’ve
hidden in our closets.  


In his 2012 talk Jesse Bering humanises so-called deviants while
at the same time asking serious questions about the differences
between thought and action. He presents us with a challenge: to
understand that our best hope of solving some of the most
troubling problems of our age hinges entirely on the amoral study
of sex.
