Welcome to HOW WE TALK ABOUT SEX

 

This is a podcast that is a frank discussion about how we communicate and learn about sex and how it affects our lives. Each week, (hopefully) I bring on a new guest to talk about how their lives are affected by sex and sexuality. I talk to friends and strangers. People who like sex and people who don't like sex. I talk to parents and ask them how they teach or intend to teach their kids about sex. I talk to writers of erotica and sexual subjects. You will find a wide range of discussion on this podcast and I hope you will enjoy and share it with your friends and families.

"Respect The Walk" with Rachel on HWTAS - Episode #88

Oct 9, 2014

This week we talk about street harassment. It's a problem that seems to be getting worse and worse. I had a conversation with my friend, Rachel and we talk about her new campaign, "Respect The Walk" which is looking to confront the issue.

“I’m trying to find something that has an action behind it and a way for women to feel empowered, because a big part of the change that has to happen is women have to stop ignoring it. We have to stop ignoring it. We have to start confronting it and we have to start telling them, ‘it’s not okay.’”

I also asked a couple of friends of mine to share their street harassment stories. If you want to get involved, check out the links below.

Thanks for listening.
