Jon Pressick Discusses Sex and Media on Sex Talk Tuesday

#SexTalkTuesday this week was an absolute joy! The topic was Sex in the Media, and everyone in the conversation had plenty to say! Moderator Jon Pressick led an animated talk that included many topics. We talked about differences between internet media, TV, magazines, newspapers, and books. While people shared a hopeful optimism on the changes in mainstream media, many chimed in that there is a long way to go.

 Comments from the chat included answers to questions like:
