ABOUT SEX OUTSIDE

 

At Sex Outside, we aim to normalize conversations about sex, sexuality, gender, and relationships by looking at each of them through the lens of the outdoors and nature.

Why? Because sex and gender are continually expressed all around us in the outdoors, and in a human-made world where we are socialized to feel shame around the topic of sex, it feels good to go back to the root of everything and remember that sex is perfectly natural.

(cue you remembering your first “birds and the bees” conversation as a kid….)

Sometimes our work might look like hygiene as it applies to being outside. Other times it might look like a turn to ecology to learn more about how we as humans can be so similar (or wildly different!) from other species of plants and animals in our world. And sometimes still, it’s a compelling story or conversation that we feel more of us could be having, and finding some ways the outdoors can create a safer container for having them.

In short: this isn’t the sex education you had in public school. (If you had it at all).
