American Sex

Dr. Joycelyn Elders was the 2nd woman and 1st African American person appointed Surgeon General of the United States. She’s also a sexual health revolutionary. In 1994 President Clinton forced Elders to resign after she advised masturbation be recommended in sex ed programs as an alternative to sex to curtail the spread of HIV. Ken & Sunny talk with Dr. Elders about sexual health, pleasure inclusive sex ed in church, transgender children, the legalization of marijuana, Waffle House vs. Denny's, #MeToo & more. Ken & Sunny also celebrate the second season of Netflix’s Stranger Things with their corny parody, Weirder Occurrences. Guest bio  Dr. M. Joycelyn Elders was the 16th United States Surgeon General. She was the First African American & second woman to ever hold the position. Dr. Elders grew up in rural segregated Arkansas and was the daughter of a sharecropper. After graduating high school she earned a university scholarship and found her calling was in medicine. Elders became a well respected pediatric endocrinologist. This is where her passion for comprehensive sex education took root. Pregnancy was dangerous for teenage girls with diabetes and other illnesses and elders recognized the need to give these young women clear useable information on pregnancy prevention and sexuality education. She taught these young women not be ashamed of their sexual feelings but instead have agency over their own bodies and to approach their own sexuality with intelligence and responsibility.   In 1986 Elders was named Director of the Arkansas Department of Health. She fought with conservative and religious opponents and opened clinics in schools, she made condoms and comprehensive sex education available to children and teens. In 1993 she was appointed surgeon general of the United States under President Bill Clinton. After 15 months she was forced to resign when she made an unforgettable remark to the press. When asked if the spread of AIDS could be reduced through advocating masturbation as an alternative to sexual intercourse, Dr. Elders answered: “I think that is something that is a part of human sexuality and it’s a part of something that perhaps should be taught.” Already controversial for speaking up about comprehensive sex ed, birth control, and supporting the legalization of marijuana, this was too much. President Clinton forced her to resign. Elders went back to medicine and teaching and has since retired. She is still, however, very vocal about the importance of sexuality education. Episode 12 Topics the importance of healthy sexuality, bad endocrinologist jokes, #MeToo, comprehensive sex ed, juvenile diabetes, transgender youth, sex ed in Indiana, Dungeons & Dragons, LGBTQ issues under the Trump administration, consent violations, cake vs. pie, child abuse in the church, sex ed for seniors, HIV/AIDS, German shepherds, child sexual abuse prevention, the power of telling your story, Stranger Things parody, Harvey Weinstein, the spectrum of gender, harmful surgery on intersex children, bathroom bills, marijuana legalization, child abuse in the church Episode 12 LinksSpecial bonus story told by Dr. Elders available to all Patreon followers (even those that don’t contribute-- just hit “follow” on our main Patreon profile page for all our free updates and posts!) https://www.patreon.com/posts/hilarious-bonus-14995929 Episode 12 Sponsor & Giveaway Info Sex Toy Spotlight item of the week: Wonder O Wand (get it, or almost anything else at Castle Megastore for 20% off with Code SUNNY) Angela White Fleshlight Contest: Win an Angela White Fleshlight and a copy of Angela Loves Women 3 which signed by both Angela White and Abella Danger, Contest runs from 10/1-10/15/17.

To some, the term “social justice” is a dirty word. But to others, it means “basic human decency” and should be everyone’s default setting. When it comes to dating, relationships, sex, or navigating sexual sub-communities it’s important. It can make or break your dating and sex life. But how and why do things like race, gender, ability, size, etc, affect getting laid? Sex is just sex, right? Not necessarily. This week’s guest, Dirty Lola, explains why your dick (or whatever genitals you happen to have) should care about social justice.

Dick Wound is a 36-year-old BDSM enthusiast. He’s a sadomasochist specializing in knife play as a top, CBT (cock & ball torture) as a bottom, and is an armpit fetishist. At 30 Dick suffered a heart attack and now depends on an internal defibrillator to stay alive. This experience prompted him to fantasize and role play about his own death to conquer his fears and depression. Dick recently became entrenched in the world of robosexual/ASFR fetish. He’s also the creator, engineer, and co-host of Off the Cuffs: a Kink & BDSM Podcast Recap: Ken & Sunny explore Dick Wound’s earliest childhood inspirations and theorize why characters like Batman, James Bond, and comic book superheroes had such an influence on his sexuality. They discuss how Dick’s death fetish kicked into high gear after his near death experience and how he used it therapeutically to conquer his fear of dying. They also dive into Dick's newest fetish, gynoids, and explore why female robots would be ideal dominant sex partners.
