The stories we tell about sex—and why they matter | Emily Morehead | TEDxTWU
In this powerful TEDx Talk, Emily Morehead unpacks how the stories we're told about sex from childhood profoundly impact our adult lives, often leading to a disconnection from pleasure and perpetuating the 'orgasm gap.' She advocates for a revolution in sex education, emphasizing the importance of teaching consent, bodily autonomy, and accurate language to children as young as three. Morehead critically examines the failures of abstinence-only education in US schools and highlights the societal benefits of comprehensive, research-based sex education. The talk ultimately calls for individuals to heal their own relationships with sex to empower future generations with safe, consensual, and pleasurable intimacy.
