How do societal norms and systems shape our understanding of sex and relationships? Join us for a thought-provoking episode as we sit down with renowned sexologist DeVika Lyles to unravel the complexities of sexology, a field that goes far beyond the physical act to include emotional, psychological, and social dimensions. DeVika introduces her ground-breaking program, the "Seven Sexological Conversations," and discusses how family beliefs, religion, and societal laws profoundly influence our sexual lives. Through this enlightening discussion, you'll gain a deeper appreciation for the myriad factors that contribute to a fulfilling sexual experience.

In our deep dive into the intricate relationship between sexuality and societal norms, we confront the cultural barriers to open conversations about sex. From the lingering impacts of colonization on self-expression to the rigid societal rules based on gender and health, DeVika helps us navigate these challenging topics. We also discuss how systemic beliefs and celebrity culture, like the controversial case of Chris Brown, shape our views on relationships and sex. This episode aims to spark more informed and empathetic dialogues about sex and gender, encouraging transformation through candid and open discussion. Tune in to challenge your preconceptions and foster a broader understanding of sex and society.
