  • Taking the Taboo Out of Sex Talk

    Taking the Taboo Out of Sex Talk
    Nov 17 2025

    Alyson Doty and Shanae Adams, Violence Prevention Educators at the Phoenix Center at Auraria, discuss the importance of de-stigmatizing sex talk and the impact of societal taboos on self-disclosure.

    Through a reference to a "New Girl" clip where Jess, the main character of the show, struggles to say "penis," they highlight societal issues around discussing body part names. They emphasize that children often find it easier to use correct anatomical terms until influenced by negative associations or by being taught to use euphemisms.

    They discuss the significance of teaching children about their bodies and consent from a young age. Alyson and Shanae then shift to reflect on the impact of social media algorithms on language and the need for media literacy. The importance of using accurate terminology to prevent sexual assault and promote healthy sexual education is stressed all throughout the podcast as they examine the need to demystify the terminology used when discussing sex and sexual assault.
