129: Sex in the Mormon News Feb 2018

Natasha Helfer Parker leads a monthly podcast “bookclub style” with colleagues who also happen to be AASECT Certified Sex Therapists in regards to current articles, news stories, research, etc. that have to do with the Mormon community from a sex-positive perspective. This project is a co-prodcution between Mormon Mental Health Podcast and Mormon Sex Info.

Be aware that some language around the Michigan State case is graphic.

This month join Natasha and Aimee Heffernan as they discuss the following news stories & articles:

1. Josh & Lolly Weed and what they currently have to say about their mixed-orientation marriage coming to an end,

2. how Rachael Denhollander talks about the enablers within church systems as part of how abusers get protected,

3. modesty expectations for YW attending church proms in comparison to YM,

4. the Breastfeeding Protection Act going on in Utah, and

5. the types of messages given to our young members about sexuality.
