In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Mark Schoen — sex educator, filmmaker, and founder of SexSmartFilms — to explore what decades of teaching human sexuality have revealed about shame, censorship, and sexual freedom. We explore: What decades of sex education have taught Mark about desire. Banned books, censorship, and why sexual honesty still scares people. How film can teach what classrooms often miss. Cultural differences in sexual messaging. Mark’s work with William Masters, Betty Dodson, and his transgender film project.
