    S1E2: To Be Spiritual, Sexual, and Black (Woman)

    What does it mean to be both spiritual and sexual as a Black Woman? It can complicate a basic need for intimacy with deep rooted beliefs leaving little room for unadulterated pleasure. “Conversations around Black women, sex, and their mental health focus on intimate partner violence, sexually transmitted infections, or maternal health, continuing to exclude how a woman’s sexual preferences impact one’s sexual pleasure and mental health.” Dr. Ashley D. Gilmore In this episode of the Big ‘Bido Podcast, we discuss themes from Dr. Ashley D. Gilmore's dissertation, The Holy Urge: Black Women's Sexuality, Mental Health, and the Black Church.   Our Guest Dr. Ashley D.
