What Is Sex?
What is Sex? is a new podcast hosted by YES! co-founders Rebecca Klein and Isy Abraham-Raveson. Each episode features one anonymous question submitted by a kid in our sex ed classes. With the help of special guests, Rebecca and Isy discuss their own experiences with these questions and explore how to address these topics with the young people in your lives. YES! is a nonprofit that provides intersectional, sex-positive sexuality education to people of all ages.
