EP295 - Unpacking Embodied Sexuality and Religious Shame ft Jenny McGrath

Welcome to episode 295 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I am delighted to welcome Jenny McGrath to the podcast. In this episode, we discuss her study Transnationalizing Purity, understanding purity culture and how purity shows up in the bedroom for adult women.

Jenny McGrath (She/Her) MA, LMHC, is a somatic psychotherapist, movement educator, and researcher based out of Seattle. She works primarily with white, cisgender women who grew up in fundamentalist Christianity who are healing from religious sexual shame and sexual abuse. She researches purity culture and its impact on individual and collective bodies.

Her current study, Transnationalizing Purity, looks at the intersections of those socialized within purity culture and their decisions to do development or ministry work internationally.

She recently released an online course, Embodied Sexuality, that offers comprehensive teachings about the impact of purity culture as well as sex education that most folks who grew up in abstinence only education never learned.

In this episode, you will hear:

  • Insights into Jenny’s recent study
  • Understanding Transnationalizing Purity
  • Looking at Jenny’s story of purity and the impact it had on her
  • The common themes that emerged from the study
  • Looking at the experience of going on purity missions
  • Understanding purity culture
  • The role that shame plays around purity culture
  • The consequences women face for breaking their purity
  • How purity shows up in the bedroom for adult women
  • Looking at sexual embodiment
  • Learning to tune into your body and be curious
