Want to be a sex or kink educator? Or become a better one? Maybe you're a student wondering how to better vet the instructors you learn from? Stefanos and Shay join us for ep 171 of American Sex Podcast to talk about pleasure education. During the pandemic, the mainstreaming of virtual classes caused demand for kink and sex ed to skyrocket. The number of brand new "educators" teaching ethically questionable and dangerous techniques has exploded too. We discuss what you can do as a student or instructor to help combat lack of diversity and quality education in kink & sex ed, the ethics of teaching in a sexually charged setting, dos and don'ts for presenters, tips for attendees on mastering challenging material, red and green flags students can look for when vetting educators or online educational content creators, and more. Stefanos and Shay literally wrote the book on this subject – Creating Captivating Classes: A Guide for Kink, Sexuality, and Relationship Presenters, which includes input from more than a dozen well-known educators. ___________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 171 Links Stefanos & Shay Website https://www.stefanosandshay.com/about-us/ Shay Twitter https://twitter.com/ShayBlondie Stefanos Twitter https://twitter.com/MaestroStefanos Creating Captivating Classes (support Wicked Grounds!) https://wickedgrounds.com/Creating-Captivating-Classes-p395828583 Creating Captivating Classes (Amazon) https://www.amazon.com/Creating-Captivating-Classes-Relationship-Presenters/dp/0578942240/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=creating+captivating&qid=1633842365&sr=8-2 Creating captivating classes academic review https://teachingpals.wordpress.com/2021/09/16/book-spotlight-creating-captivating-classes-a-guide-for-kink-sexuality-and-relationship-presenters/amp/?

Why are dark, disgusting fantasies that are in direct opposition to our moral beliefs some of our biggest turn-ons? How can what's 'so wrong' be 'so RIGHT'? Mollena Lee Williams-Haas tells us what's behind this on episode 170 of American Sex Podcast. If your porn search history is twisted, you're not alone. Taboo kinks are quite normal. We touch on: why the BDSM community can surprisingly be the most judgmental, how to handle it when people yuck your yum, the right and wrong reasons to explore taboo, how some examine oppressive systems like sexism and racism through taboo play, and why the WHY and intention behind it all is the key to everything. Mollena also breaks down a fear many of us wrestle with--will thinking about extreme fantasies push us to act out dangerous things or lead to the erosion of our personal ethics in real life? How can we determine if others will eventually cross that line? Even though the subject matter is dark, this conversation is lighthearted and hilarious too. Laugh your way to "strange boner town" with us! ___________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 170 Links All That and Mo, Podcast hosted by Mollena Lee Williams Haas https://allthatandmo.com/ Mollena Lee Williams Haas Website http://www.mollena.com/ Mollena Lee Williams Haas Facebook https://www.facebook.com/mollena Mollena Lee Williams Haas Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mollena_lee_williams_haas/ Mollena Lee Williams Haas Twitter https://twitter.com/mollena Mollena Lee Williams Haas Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MollenaLeeWilliamsHaas Mollena on RISK!

Jaki Griot gives us the real talk on femme dominants on ep 169 of American Sex Podcast. In the kink world, they're often disrespected, devalued, and held to higher standards than their masculine counterparts. Femme doms of color, even more so. This undercurrent is present in lifestyle play, sex work, and community leadership. Jaki talks about their experiences both in the lifestyle and in sex work, how default world misogyny skews these D/s dynamics, and the benefits and drawbacks of entitlement on both sides of the slash. Jaki also offers tips for femmes eager to explore their dominance—how to work past barriers and imposter syndrome, compromise on your own terms, and more! ___________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 169 Links Jaki Griot Instagram http://instagram.com/pervertsofcolor JK Toyz Instagram http://instagram.com/jk_toyz JK Toyz Twitter https://twitter.com/Jk_toyz Jaki Griot Twitter https://twitter.com/jakigriot Jaki Griot Tiktok http://tiktok.com/@jktoyz JK Toyz Store http://www.jktoyz.xyz Mean Mommy Kink Podcast https://anchor.fm/jaki8/support KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ BDSM Strategy & Soft Skills Chat with Erin Tillman for Sex Positive LA 9/29/21 7pm PT https://www.sexpositiveworld.org/event-details/spla-l1-lets-talk-about-sex-positivity-w-sunny-megatron-virtual Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (Free recorded replay available until mid/late October) https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex Episode 169 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 30% off ANY SATISFYER when you use this link https://us.satisfyer.com/us/?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=SUNNY&utm_campaign=2H AND enter code SUNNY30 at checkout. 30 day free trial of Dipsea Stories when you use code SUNNY http://dipseastories.com/sunny Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation recorded class https://gum.co/humiliationclass Prostate Play for Beginners (recorded class) from Sugar Baltimore https://www.sugartheshop.com/prostate-milking-for-beginners.html Sunny & Ken's classes on Kink Academy http://bit.ly/kinkacademyelectric & http://bit.ly/kinkacademyhumiliation 10% off American Sex Podcast & Sunny Megatron merch with code SUNNY (t-shirts, mugs, phone cases & more) http://bit.ly/sunnyshirts 15% off your order at Lovehoney when you use this link http://bit.ly/lovehoney15 This link can be a little wonky and does not keep tracking cookies.

Polly Superstar is a sex culture revolutionary and she's also our guest on episode 168 of American Sex Podcast. Over the last 14 years her legendary event, Kinky Salon, has spread to 16 cities around the world. Some describe it as a sex party but it's actually so much more—theatrics, erotic exploration, an opportunity to embrace ridiculousness in the safe container of creativity and community, to name a few. Each event is thoughtfully crafted with intention, accountability, inclusivity at the center. Polly tells us how it all started—from the underground fetish clubs of London to San Francisco and beyond--and where it's going now that lockdowns dominate our lives. Plus learn how Pervy Activity Liaisons keep consent and safety concerns in check, about the allure of alien mating ritual contests, and how the Kinky Salon community has thrived through the pandemic thanks to Polly's innovative use of closed social channels. ___________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 168 Links Polly Superstar's Kinky Salon kinkysalon.com Text Polly Superstar! 702 996 4243 KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ BDSM Strategy & Soft Skills Chat with Erin Tillman for Sex Positive LA 9/29/21 7pm PT https://www.sexpositiveworld.org/event-details/spla-l1-lets-talk-about-sex-positivity-w-sunny-megatron-virtual Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (Free recorded replay available until late October) https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex Episode 168 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 20% off AND free shipping when you go to http://LikeAKitten.com/sunny OR enter code SUNNY at checkout Get 20% off + free shipping at Manscaped.com with code SUNNY http://manscaped.com Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation recorded class https://gum.co/humiliationclass Prostate Play for Beginners (recorded class) from Sugar Baltimore https://www.sugartheshop.com/prostate-milking-for-beginners.html Sunny & Ken's classes on Kink Academy http://bit.ly/kinkacademyelectric & http://bit.ly/kinkacademyhumiliation 10% off American Sex Podcast & Sunny Megatron merch with code SUNNY (t-shirts, mugs, phone cases & more) http://bit.ly/sunnyshirts 15% off your order at Lovehoney when you use this link http://bit.ly/lovehoney15 This link can be a little wonky and does not keep tracking cookies.

Daddy play is hitting the mainstream and Luna Matatas joins us on episode 167 of American Sex Podcast to talk about the many flavors of this role-play. Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to engage in age play to enjoy the daddy archetype. It's not always a DDLG dynamic, although it can be. Luna explains why we find this kink so hot, the different types of daddy archetypes we can portray, why daddy play isn't gender-dependent, the surging popularity of FemDaddies & gender non-conforming daddies, how it differs from mommy play, why not all daddies are dominant, the cultural and psychological origins of this kind of play, and more. ____________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 167 Links Luna Matatas Website http://lunamatatas.com/ Luna Matatas Twitter https://twitter.com/lunamatatas Luna Matatas Instagram https://www.instagram.com/lunamatatas/ Luna Matatas "Body Fluid Play" podcast episode https://sunnymegatron.com/body-fluids-luna-matatas/ Luna matatas "CBT" Episode https://sunnymegatron.com/cbt-cock-and-ball-torture/ Luna Matatas & Marla Renee Stewart "Race and Kink" podcast episode https://sunnymegatron.com/race-kink-marla-luna/ KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (free!) 9/14/21 11am PT https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex Episode 167 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 30% off ANY SATISFYER when you use this link https://us.satisfyer.com/us/?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=SUNNY&utm_campaign=2H AND enter code SUNNY30 at checkout.

Last month, news of OnlyFans explicit content ban rocked the world. What was behind it? Were they sanitizing the platform to court new investors? Was their grand plan to exploit adult creators to grow the site only kick them to the curb once it gained mainstream appeal? Were payment processors pressuring them? And how were they able to reverse their decision so quickly? In episode 166 of American Sex Podcast, Kitty Stryker explains the complex and deep-rooted reasons for this unexpected series of events. It has ties to the censorship in media movement that goes back decades, religious groups with hidden agendas, shady anti-trafficking organizations, and more. She warns that even though OnlyFans ban was suspended, there may be more to come that will affect every corner of the internet. ____________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 166 Links Kitty Stryker Twitter https://twitter.com/kittystryker Kitty Stryker Facebook https://www.facebook.com/officiallykittystryker Kitty Stryker Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/@kittystryker Kitty Stryker Patreon patreon.com/kittystryker International Day of Consent, November 30th – https://idoconsent.org/ Sex Workers Deserve Better than OnlyFans article by Kitty Stryker https://www.bitchmedia.org/article/onlyfans-debacle-morality-battle?fbclid=IwAR0UvY7HNGoFUCDoZNJ6rsR_jj-gisamnX9hBNks2g3VXb6uEubAlIeiSpc KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (free!) 9/14/21 11am PT https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Sex Down South Virtual Conference Fri 9/10-Sun 9/12 https://hopin.com/events/sex-down-south-conference-2021 Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex Episode 166 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 20% off AND free shipping when you go to http://LikeAKitten.com/sunny OR enter code SUNNY at checkout Get 20% off + free shipping at Manscaped.com with code SUNNY http://manscaped.com Get 20% off everything from http://gvibe.com including the limited edition Gbulb with code SUNNY Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation recorded class https://gum.co/humiliationclass Prostate Play for Beginners (recorded class) from Sugar Baltimore https://www.sugartheshop.com/prostate-milking-for-beginners.html Sunny & Ken's classes on Kink Academy http://bit.ly/kinkacademyelectric & http://bit.ly/kinkacademyhumiliation 10% off American Sex Podcast & Sunny Megatron merch with code SUNNY (t-shirts, mugs, phone cases & more) http://bit.ly/sunnyshirts 15% off your order at Lovehoney when you use this link http://bit.ly/lovehoney15 (This link can be a little wonky and does not keep tracking cookies.

Kink trailblazer Midori joins us for episode 165. Now at the helm of the first Kink Informed Professionals Certification of its kind, Midori recently partnered with the Sexual Health Alliance to bridge the gap between BDSM and mental health/care professions. Once pathologized, kink has recently become a serious area of professional interest and study. In this conversation, Midori tells us how myths from popular culture and those perpetrated by the BDSM community itself have contributed to bias in care professions. We pinpoint why the mental health field is beginning to see BDSM as a healthy outlet for creativity, resilience, and valid erotic expression. We also touch on the ways abuse hides within kink and how stigma around that affects our relationships with therapists, doctors, social workers, attorneys, and other care professionals we come into contact with. ____________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________ Episode 164 Links Kink Informed Certification - Sexual Health Alliance https://sexualhealthalliance.com/kink-informed-certification-program Midori Twitter https://twitter.com/PlanetMidori Midori Instagram https://www.instagram.com/planetmidori/ Midori Newsletter https://www.fhp-inc.com/newsletter Midori class/event calendar http://www.FHP-Inc.com/classes Midori's Patreon https://www.patreon.com/PlanetMidori/ KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (free!) 9/14/21 11am PT https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Midori History of Shibari (free!) 9/4/21 11am https://shibaristudy.com/programs/histories-and-cultures-of-shibari Creative Living Coaching and Private Sexological Consultations: ask@planetmidori.com Sex Down South Virtual Conference Fri 9/10-Sun 9/12 https://hopin.com/events/sex-down-south-conference-2021 Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex Episode 165 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 30% off ANY SATISFYER when you use this link https://us.satisfyer.com/us/?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=SUNNY&utm_campaign=2H AND enter code SUNNY30 at checkout. 30 day free trial of Dipsea Stories when you use code SUNNY http://dipseastories.com/sunny Get 20% off + free shipping at Manscaped.com with code SUNNY http://manscaped.com Get 20% off everything from http://gvibe.com including the limited edition Gbulb with code SUNNY Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation recorded class https://gum.co/humiliationclass Prostate Play for Beginners (recorded class) from Sugar Baltimore https://www.sugartheshop.com/prostate-milking-for-beginners.html Sunny & Ken's classes on Kink Academy http://bit.ly/kinkacademyelectric & http://bit.ly/kinkacademyhumiliation 10% off American Sex Podcast & Sunny Megatron merch with code SUNNY (t-shirts, mugs, phone cases & more) http://bit.ly/sunnyshirts 15% off your order at Lovehoney when you use this link http://bit.ly/lovehoney15 (This link can be a little wonky and does not keep tracking cookies.
