Episode One: Faking It

Women's sexuality is a paralyzing subject because throughout history there has been a pervasive view of the female body being hyper-sexualized by men but perceived as negatively promiscuous if embraced by women.

According to our proof of concept, Faking It is a subject that brings out the best and worst of memories. That said, people have a lot to share regarding their experiences when asked the question “What does faking it mean to you?” and all that leads to the societal norms that ask women to fake-it when performing or interacting with sex.

Episode Two: Masculinity

Although the patriarchal society is something that men benefit from over others, there are a multitude of things within the patriarchal norm that hurt men just as much as women. This episode will explore what kind of conditioning men undergo in their early life to “be a man” and how we may be able to unpack it through conversation.

Episode Three: Gender

Let’s break down and understand the re-emergence of society’s acceptance of the non-binary experience. In episode three we will dive into the question “what is gender?” and further unpack the gender divide raised in episode one and two.

As settlers on indigenous land, it is only the past 150 years of colonial education that dictates such a narrow and distinct binary. This episode gives us the opportunity to dig into Canadian History through an indigenous lens, expanding our audiences’ understanding of where the term two-spirit comes from.

Episode Four: Sexual Education

When asked where we learned sex, gender, consent and body health we often think of school. Our classrooms are where we are first introduced to many of these questions both in health, gym, science and history but also amongst our peers.

This episode is a chance to explore the school system and how its failed many of us in the past. In hopes to bring light to the strides in education that should continue forward. School is the place where we are most trusted to learn about life. Why is sex not included as a strong foundation of education?

Episode Five: Abortion Rights

If we’re going to make a series about sex, we have to talk about abortions. Especially in the current times where women are once again losing their right to safe abortions in North America.

The Morgantaler practice was one of the first ever to create a safe haven for Abortions in Canada in 1991. This is recent history in Canada that is paralleled with the drastic conservative shift over women's health in our neighbouring country the United States. It’s time to talk about abortions, women's rights, and the real life effects that politics play in our reproductive health.

Episode Six: Love and Relationships

How can we talk about sex without talking to love and relationships!

What is more intimate than sex in 2023? Actually falling in love. We have a rapidly diversifying view of sex and relationships in our modern day. Love can show up platonically, romantically, or when we take our first bite into a really good cheese pizza. In this episode we are studying the pursuit of romantic love. We will ask couples of their humble beginnings, what their relationship dynamic looks like and how its modernized with online dating apps, hook up culture, and open relationships. Have we progressed collectively or have we taken two steps forward and one back?
