SEXUAL LIBERATION, HIGHER EDUCATION & THE PLAGUE - An Interview With Sexologist Amanda Morgan (pt 1)
IN THIS EPISODE, we sit down for a talk with groundbreaking Sexologist and educator Amanda Morgan, PhD
We chat about her experiences as a professor at UNLV, and how the pandemic impacted her and her students’ experience
We cover her formative years and what led her to become the youngest Sexologist in America
We hear about many myths and misconceptions that afflict our society that she has dedicated her life to dispelling.
We discuss the more interesting contents of her closet
We find out how a vagina is like coffee!
In this episode we share with you part 1 of our 2 part interview with the amazing sexologist, Dr. Amanda Morgan. Dr Amanda has been our friend for years, but time and circumstance have created some unintended distance between us. It’s nice to catch up with her again.
We share the first half of what turned out to be a long & satisfying chat at Dr Amanda’s home. We talk about the difficulties & challenges of teaching when suddenly the world shuts down. We chat about how she became infatuated with sex as a topic of study. We hear examples of how poorly educated in sexual matters we are as a society. We discuss her collaboration at the old Erotic Heritage Museum in Las Vegas as well as her performance group Dr. Sexpot's Erotic Circus, and we touch on her chosen mission both as an educator and as an artist.
Part 2 comes out next week!
