We live at a time when sex is no longer taboo to talk about (or have), when repression is banished, and no one has issues. Or not. Turns out, there are still powerful unspoken norms, cultural expectations, and widespread confusion about sex. Let’s talk about it with Lauren Holmes, author of a much-lauded and multiple star-reviewed debut story collection, Barbara the Slut and Other People; novelist Dylan Landis, author of Rainey Royal, a powerful portrait of an abandoned fourteen-year-old girl; and journalist Rachel Hills, whose The Sex Myth: The Gap Between Our Fantasies and Reality examines the new normative when it comes to sex. Come join in a discussion moderated by culture critic, philosopher, and author of How To Do Things with Pornography, Nancy Bauer.
