In this episode, Hannah is joined by Sophia Smith Galer, who is an award-winning journalist, author of Losing It: Sex Education for the 21st Century, and Tiktok creator. Sophia unpacks the main sex myths she tackles in her book from virginity to the hymen, and also shares how she identified the gap in social sex education to start with. She and Hannah talk about Sophia’s journey into becoming a TikTok journalist as well as social media’s censorship of sex education and how Sophia hopes SexTok can continue to help us and the next generation with sexual, mental, and physical health. Finally, Sophia shares a personal story of vaginismus, and Sophia and Hannah discuss why sex education should never come from just one person.

CW: discussion of consent nuances, consent withdrawal, and non-consensual sex. (roughly between 22 - 24 minutes). A brief mention of self-harm.
