From hookups and “swipey dating” to sex ed and male entitlement: What has and has NOT changed in recent decades for young women? This week’s guest says she and her peers are still fighting the mythologies of “boys will be boys,” of virginity, of people-pleasing as a part of female sexuality. Which means my former student and I are able to share bad dating stories far too easily.

But the conversation is also heartening, as it is whenever young women share how they’re dismantling persisting myths about their sexuality, that they won’t put up with anymore.

Cindy Gallop, founder of Make Love Not Porn, discusses the genesis of the healthy sex website - and upcoming educational offshoot. Amid funding and censorship challenges, she continues to flip the scripts on the male-dominated porn industry, from the way MLNP videos are curated (by humans, always) to fun, real-world categories like “Procrasturbation” and “Soft Serve.”

Two fathers of teenage girls share insights, humor and questions about what they’re doing to avoid harmful myths and stereotypes as they navigate the sometimes embarrassing road of teaching healthy sexuality.
