On this episode of #mensexpleasure, I chat with Pomma. Pomma does various forms of sex work and is a huge advocate for decriminalizing and destigmatizing sex work. They make educational content about sex workers’ rights in hopes to humanize sex workers and their needs to people and systems who commonly overlook sex workers. It’s very important to Pomma that sex workers’ voices are at the forefront of legislation and conversations that affect their lived realities since they’re often excluded. Pomma likes to keep their feminism and politics intersectional, because, at the end of the day, what affects them affects you, and affects all of us. When they’re not raising awareness about censorship or decriminalization, Pomma is crafting cosplays and traveling for conventions. Key Points: Pomma introduces themselves The importance of sex work “Rights, not rescue” Purity fetish and the sex work heirarchy Decriminalization vs legalization SWERFs: Sex Work Exclusionary Radical Feminists Educating on social media Relevant Links: Check out Pomma’s educational work and socials at their Carrd: Pomma.Carrd.Co

On this episode of the #mensexpleasure podcast I welcome back a really lovely colleague and friend of mine. Her name is Sarah Martin. You might recall her from episode number 135, where we talked about her research regarding pick up artists. In this episode, we do something a little bit different and discuss a project we've been collaborating on, known as a sexual attitude reassessment (SAR). We talk about the three major assumptions that we see practitioners often make, whether they be sex coaches or therapists or men's work facilitators. So if you're interested in having some beliefs or stereotypes or values about men challenge, this is the episode for you. Key Points: - Sarah reintroduces herself - What is a SAR? - Assumption 1: Men don’t warrant specific consideration as men - Assumption 2: You definitely have unconscious bias when it comes to men - Assumption 3: All the men who are in online communities are basement dwelling, violent misogynists - How to work with men who want to improve their communication skills but choose not to do it - Testimonial from Charles Dubois - The next SAR offering Relevant Links: The Man SAR: https://themansar.com/

Brendan is a researcher and educator focused on the social-emotional wellbeing of adolescents and understanding the role that gender plays in that equation—particularly masculinity. His PhD research from the University of Edinburgh investigated teenage boys’ experiences and beliefs about being male and compared their experiences based on their levels of emotional expression.

He is from and lives in Vancouver, BC, has three kids and prior to his PhD was a high school teacher. Key points: Brendan introduces himself Discussion on toxic masculinity and its nuances Critique of the term and deliberate misunderstandings to attack masculinity Responses of teenage boys to masculine pressures Young men and emotional restriction Importance of multiple ways of being a man and role of fathers in shaping masculine identities Creating emotional safe havens for teenage boys and the need for outlets outside romantic relationships Relevant links: Brendan’s website: https://remasculine.com/  Brendan’s Instagram: @re.msculine  Brendan’s TikTok: remasculine
