Okay, just watched the playback. Yep, it's lagged. Will tweak that next week. That aside .... NICE!!! Didn't realize how much terrain was covered. Hence, why I watched the replay; needed to remember which links I said I'd drop.

Here we go! Interesting shit for your radar re: #COVID19 and #SexualHealth ...

.@okcupid suggested I should remove my geographic restrictions and talk to sexy people around the world. So, I did. 🌏 Went on a "date" with a man in Holland. 🇳🇱

This episode of #SexualHealth and #COVID19 was about international lovin'. So was my debut one-woman theater show. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/styl…

If we're talking about #SexualHealth and #COVID19, we have to make space to acknowledge the unfortunate spike in intimate partner violence / domestic violence. Read: "What Domestic Violence Organizations Need to Know about Coronavirus" from @NCADV. ncadv.org/covid-19-and-d…

Thought we didn't talk about maternal health / reproductive health — which is on purpose, because I believe it's 100% okay to talk about sex/fucking/pleasure without talking about babies. Some of us don't want or like babies & are happily #Childfree. That said ....

Since we're talking about #COVID19, I would be remiss if I didn't mention what happened to Jodian. Her untimely #maternaldeath isn't getting enough mainstream / national coverage. #JusticeforJodian

We also talked about miscegenation because someone asked during the live stream. I responded by quoting Father Mychal Judge, who I learned about after watching the doc "The Saint of 9/11" imdb.com/title/tt079545…

"Is there so much love in the world that we can afford to discriminate against any kind of love?" — Father Mychal, @FDNY chaplain ✝️

Then, we kind of wrapped everything up by talking about what 3 different countries are doing re: #SexualHealth and #COVID19.
