Love and Sex(ting) During Coronavirus+PODCAST

As we turn to quarantine, we are relying on digital communication more than ever. That includes online dating! As the (now common) adage goes, isolation doesn’t have to mean being alone. Everyone responds to stress in different ways. For some, that means turning inwards, and for some that means turning to others. Both are valid responses.

As we turn to quarantine, we are relying on digital communication more than ever. Is this the right time to strike up intimate conversations with strangers? How do you navigate consent about sexting with someone you have never met? What role does negotiation play in online dating? Join us for this robust discussion during this crucial time for love and connection.  Listen below!
