Fulfillments & Freedoms – SuperSalon with Christine Emba – Rethinking Sex

Joining our community and friends, author and Washington Post columnist Christine Emba discusses her much-awaited new book Rethinking Sex with psychology professor Dr. Isabela Granic.

In her vibrant new book, aptly subtitled “A Provocation,” the journalist Christine Emba investigates whether the current state of sexual liberation is founded on the right ethics: does our current understanding of “consent,” “casual,” or even “good” really lead to the safe, happy, and fair intimate encounters we desire?

Revisiting the great social theorists of sex as well as prominent conservative thinkers, Emba asks previously taboo questions around sex positivity, and probes the root causes of the widely documented malaise that seems to resist the beneficial effects of recent revolutions.

Join us for this important conversation on pleasures and rights, loneliness and compromise, hedonism and hierarchy.
