Better Porn, Better Sex?
“Open, healthy sex education is being blocked, censored, and deplatformed everywhere. It’s getting harder and harder to find.”
Porn shows us such a small sliver of human sexuality. And because culture feeds on itself—and tech and culture feed on one another—the impact on you is that it just becomes unidimensional. It's the same thing over and over again, where you never get access to more creative, more ethical, or more interesting forms of sex and sexuality that exist out there thanks to this pornography monopoly in terms of content.
Enter: Make Love Not Porn, a social sex tech platform designed to promote good sexual behavior and values. The creative genius behind this platform and really this social sexual revolution is Cindy Gallop.
For those of you who don't know Cindy, she's very much the reason many of us do what we do because this intersection of sex and technology began with her and her TED talk. For the last sixteen years, Cindy has been a force of nature leading the change within the industry.
Here's what we cover:
The negative impact of not talking about sex more openly at home and in society
How MakeLoveNotPorn is inspiring people to think differently about sex and pornography
How we can redirect teens toward more ethical porn sources
The best sex education resource for parents
The core question everyone has about sex across the globe
How AR and VR are being implemented to augment the industry
Porn is produced, performative, scripted entertainment. Make Love Not Porn is literally sex education through real world demonstration. It’s about time things change! Let's do it together.
