Episode 15, Season 2: Sex Positivity 101 with Ruby Rare

What’s the link between sex and mental health? Why is sex still a taboo subject in so many circles? What does it mean to be “sex positive”? What’s non-monogamy and why do we even need to know? We discuss all this and more in this special final episode of the second season of Body Cons, with sex educator, artist and body positive crusader Ruby Rare. This is a bit of a feature length episode as we also share a deep dive into the BBC Two documentary Who Are You Calling Fat?, as well as some interesting thoughts on tattoos and body image, and a letter written by Nick Cave which is guaranteed to make you cry.
