Is Monogamy Natural? Sex Addiction? Sex Strike? (The Point w/ An All Female Panel)

WARNING: There is some adult language and a little bonobo sex (fine for people who've seen nature specials).



Is monogamy natural? Is sex addiction real? Should women have a 'sex strike' to push back against anti-contraception views and legislation? Christopher Ryan, Ph.D (co-author of 'Sex At Dawn') lead this weeks panel to discuss these issues and more with Nina Hartley (nurse, sex entertainer, educator, and advocate), Sandra Daugherty (Host of the 'Sex Nerd Sandra' podcast), and Cara Santa Maria (neuroscientist, and correspondent at The Huffington Post). Special thanks to Jesse Bering (writer at Slate and Scientific American) who submitted a point on 'hypersexual disorder'.

Clearly not a Republican forum. They would have had an all male panel of experts. tclambert Mar 2012 #3

Hell, after all the Penthouse letters I've read, I think I'm well informed enough about human sexuality to be considered an expert too. Those letters are real, you know.

Their conclusion would be that women should just submit to their husbands . . . and maybe forgive the occasional cheating with the secretary.
