Last Call for Talk Sex with Sue Johanson
After 32 years on television, sex educator Sue Johanson has stepped aside from her popular call in show on Oxygen, Talk Sex with Sue. At 77, she tells CBC News, "1 a.m. is not her finest hour." While Sunday late night TV will never be the same, Sue plans to continue her work lecturing and writing about human sexuality.
I've been an admirer of Sue's for years now. In fact, I wrote about watching Talk Sex last July in the first month of this blog's existence.
Her brand of sex education with humor, acceptance, and an no-excuse attitude about safer sex is exactly what I believe in. I've always said, you aren't mature enough for sex until you are mature enough to protect yourself. If you can't buy rubbers, you have no business having sex at any age.
To me, morality is another discussion all together. Humans will always have sex no matter what cultural values are placed on the act. No matter what, knowledge has no down side. It can be used just as well for culturally accepted sex, as for any other type. Ignorance is not bliss, if you get my drift. Reruns of Talk Sex and Sue Johanson's website (not work or kid friendly) will, no doubt, useful resources for years to come.
Alfred Kinsey may have been the man who pioneered scientific research in the area of human sexuality, but it took a plain talking nurse from Toronto to get everyday people to ask questions about their personal sexuality.
I wish Sue another 77 years to answer and enlighten the world about the wonders of human sexuality.
She sounds wonderful. I'm going to check her out!
Thanks
Take care,
Angel
