This is the story of Sexplanations.
This video was originally a speech for one of the most well-known talk series at one of the most prestigious schools in the world. I was invited to speak about “how to bring the field of sexuality closer to people, and the role that sex education can, or should, play in that process.” I reflected on my experiences teaching at a university and online, anecdotes for the woes and triumphs of my field.
Initially, I received a few minor edits to the speech and a green light to proceed.
A week later, I received a message that a board reviewed my writing and had provided me with 715 words outlining the ways I needed to “keep the sexual content low” in my talk about sex.
After a lot of thought, conversations with colleagues, and discomfort, I withdrew from the conference. I think there are people who would have given Theodore of Oxfordshire a censored version, maybe even with a positive attitude that “something is better than nothing.” That isn’t me. I believe doing so would be acting in accordance with shame, perpetuating the very silence, misinformation, and disinformation that harm us. Sexuality deserves the same open communication we afford music, chemistry, and geology. It deserves to be studied and learned. It deserves curiosity.
