58: The Case Against the Sexual Revolution

“If what we want is to feel safe so that we are free to express and embody our feminine gifts, then we have to acknowledge the ways in which we have participated in creating a dominant culture that compromises our bodily, our psychological and our spiritual sense of safety.” — Dr. Kelly BroganIn this episode, Kelly explores the notion that the sexual revolution has led to confusion about femininity, female biology, and women's roles in society. She examines women's physical vulnerability, the influence of contraceptives, and the reality of hookup culture. She also delves into three myths associated with the sexual revolution based on Louise Perry's views and critiques the modern work environment and consumer culture, suggesting they exploit women rather than liberate them. Today on Reclamation Radio:The sexual revolution and its promises to womenFeminism's role in shaping women's expectations and experiencesCritique of "hookup culture" and the myths of sexual liberationThe consequences of casual sex and normalization of certain sexual behaviorsReevaluating marriage, monogamy, and societal norms surrounding sexThis show is sponsored by:Quicksilver Scientific | Go to quicksilverscientific.com/kellyb and use the code KELLYB for 15% off.Resources:The Case Against the Sexual Revolution by Louise PerryConnect with Kelly:Instagram: @kellybroganmd Website: kellybroganmd.comCheckout Kelly's monthly membership Vital Life Project hereWhat's your Reclamation Remedy?
