Episode 13: Deconstructing Relationship
Manage episode 321043731 series 2970381
This week it's our first couple interview! I chat with Courtney & Ben about their stories - Courtney is an ex-fundamentalist Christian who has deconstructed her faith and along with that, the monogamous relationship model that is often ingrained into that culture. Ben immigrated to Canada from China and is himself deconstructing his experience of traditional Chinese culture, and we discuss the interesting parallels between that and Courtney's own deconstruction.
On top of that, we also talk a lot about sexuality, homeschooling, purity culture and the affects of purity culture on marriages, pornography, and dismantling dichotomous thinking.
Lots of content warnings on this one: discussion of sex and sex acts, purity culture, pornography, and marital abuse.
The podcast Courtney mentioned was "Good Girls Talk About Sex" - episode title "My Vagina Was As Dry As A Bone".
