We have sexual health and pornography on the table today. Stephanie Boye has been with the Speakers Bureaus for RAINN, our nations largest anti-sexual violence organization, for three years and is currently producing a podcast on the impact of pornography on youth called Laid Bare with Anonymous X. She joins Ashley to talk about the ways in which kids are prone to being exposed to pornography, the emotional and sexual harms of being exposed to pornography too early, why the best sexual education comes from within the home, and how to instill language and practices around consent into kids.
