Recovering from Purity Culture with Erica Smith

🎙Episode 129:  Recovering from Purity Culture with Erica Smith

We also cover taboo topics like Sex Education and Roe vs Wade

Wow oh wow! This episode had so much great value, quotable quotes and amazing discussion. I’m so happy to have Erica Smith on my podcast to talk about purity culture, what it is, and how it can affect us in adulthood.

We also dive into sex education and talking about sex with kids and how our sex education growing up or lack thereof affects us.

Erica Smith (she/her), she's an experienced, award winning and nationally recognized sexuality educator who provides public and private sexuality education, consulting, training, and speaking. She has been a sex educator for over 20 years, receiving my BA in Women’s Studies from Penn State University and my Master of Education from Widener University's Center for Human Sexuality Studies.

She developed the Purity Culture Dropout™️ Program in 2019 to help people learn all of the sex education that they missed growing up in purity culture- sex ed that is accurate, queer inclusive, trauma informed, compassionate, and comprehensive. (Interested? Find out more here!)

What is purity culture?

“What Is Purity Culture? Purity culture has come to be known as a subculture of evangelical Christian culture that emphasizes strict gender roles and norms, abstinence, and modesty. The basic teachings differ for males and females in some ways, although the message of “abstinence only” was the same across the board.” - Choosing Therapy
