Today on the show I’m answering your questions about sex and consent in long term relationships, the difference between sexual and emotional intimacy, and why gender diverse is not an umbrella term for LGBTQ2S+ folks.  I also share my interview with Dr. Charlotte Loppie, my mentor and the creator of the Healthy Sexuality course I taught at the University of Victoria. Both of us were interviewed with the University of Victoria’s Consent Advocates and Relationship Educators (CARE) program about consent and sex positivity.
