As seen in the presentation and a few peoples blogs, I loved the Russel Brand video. His description of how porn effects peoples view of sex seemed to be spot on. It definately relates for me how the media portrays sex and this shapes peoples images of what should be done and what things should look like. It made me keep relating it back to the woman in the class video who had the SPINE SURGERY to help her orgasm, thinking she was broken due to not being able to orgasm from intercourse.
This being said, I'm not anti-porn. I guess I'm anti-seeing-and-immediately-believing-this-is-the-only-truth. With more sexual education, I think the myths that many people hold could be dispelled.
As for the Wiki page itself, I gotta say nice job ladies on the expansive nature of the wiki page. The treatment section holds a variety of different techniques to help clinicians fit their own personal style, their clients style, and best clinical practices.
I also find the predictors section interesting and again am drawn to the education piece of it. I think that a lot of this does boil down to education, both on the part of clinicians and the general population. Either through school sex ed, helping parents communicate to their children, helping adults learn about sexuality in general, getting rid of sexual myths, and helping clinicians understand fact vs fiction so they can better help their clients in the therapy room, education plays an enormous role. I personally feel like I can't learn enough, and the more I learn the more I feel there is to continue learning.
