Episode 1: Seven Deadly Sexual Sins (According to the Church): A Preview

Sexvangelicals is a podcast about the sex education that the church didn't want you to have.

What's the sex education that the church did want you to have? So glad that you asked!

Julia and Jeremiah talk about the Seven Deadly Sexual Sins (According to the Church):

1. Don’t have sex before you get married.

2. Don’t be gay.

3. Don’t have an affair.

4. Don’t lust.

5. Don’t watch porn. (This is for men, because obviously women don’t have sexual desire.)

6. Don’t say no. (This is for women, because women are supposed to be the recipients of sexuality. Plus, obviously, men would never say no to sex.)

7. Don’t ask questions.

And you'll notice that they all have one word in common.

Don't.

In this episode, we talk about the implications and limitations for how the word "don't" can negatively impact sex education, as well as how you can name some "do's" to more effectively communicate what you need.
