Welcome to the Commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasnow. So the chances are you received the same

sex education that most of us did. Avoid an STD and here's a pregnancy prevention plan.

But what about the rest of it? What about pleasure, anatomy, the hormones that are quietly running

the entire operation? Well, today, we're handing

the mic to Dr. Kelly Casperson, board-certified urologist, sexual health expert, and one of the

clearest and funniest, no-nonsense voices in the space.

Now, this episode features highlights from Dr. Kelly Casperson's brand new commune course

called Adult Sex Ed.

You can check out the full course with a free 14-day membership trial at one commune.com forward

slash trial. So think about the sex ed that you got and it might have been no sex ed. It might be

sex ed from watching movies, porn. It might be the sex ed your older sibling taught you or your

first relationship taught you. Or it might be what a lot of us got taught you, or your first relationship taught you,

or it might be what a lot of us got around eighth grade, which was a disease and pregnancy

prevention plan.

And that leaves out a lot of information that adults need for good adult sex ed.

Five key areas that we're missing in our sex ed include pleasure, consent, anatomy, hormones,

and communication.

We didn't get taught any of that in our disease and pregnancy prevention plan.

The other problem with learning crappy sex ed in eighth grade is that like you're not an adult

yet.

You haven't tried and failed at relationships.

You hardly know your body because it's changing.
