347. The Science of Sex: What No One Told You

Today we’re diving deep into a topic that honestly, we don’t talk about enough—the science of sex. Last time, we covered the basics of healthy sexuality, and today, we’re taking it further. Did you know that sex isn’t just about the physical? There’s a biological, emotional, and even spiritual design behind it. We’re talking hormones, bonding, God’s intention, and why culture often gets it completely wrong. Plus, I break down the three B’s of sex—babies, bonding, and beauty—and why understanding them can change the way you view intimacy forever. Stick around, because this conversation might just change the way you think about sex for good!Buy The Naked Truth About Sexuality:https://a.co/d/a3afM3AParenting Sexuality Course:https://shop.truthtotable.com/collections/digital-courses-studies/products/parenting-sexuality
