Welcome to episode 403 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I am delighted to be speaking with Jean Franzblau.In this conversation, we discuss the meaning of kink, sexual shame, and the misrepresentation of kinky behaviors in media. They also discuss the importance of consent, safe words, and the impact of cultural norms on sexual expression.
