Do you find it awkward talking about sex?  Does this mean you do not talk about sex with your partner, children, friends, doctor or community?  What are the implications of not talking about sex?  In the following TEDx Talk Debbie Herbenick shares useful personal examples of the dangers of not talking about sex.  She also mentions how not talking about sex can impact on:
  • Our children's safety
  • How we view our bodies
  • Having adequate information about ourselves and properly accessing healthcare
  • Fully utilising our bodies
  • The intimacy in our relationships
  • Understanding sexual diversity
  • The spread of sexually transmitted diseases; and
  • How we deal with rape and sexual violence

After watching this video you may feel quite different about what that awkwardness may cost you and the people around you.  Herbenick challenges everyone to make sex normal and provides practical ways in which you can make sex normal.
