Call for Participants: Time.com Asks “How Did You Learn About Sex?”
TIME.com invites you to the Center for Sex & Culture to tell the story of how you learned about sex. Come be part of this video shoot!
(Note: You must sign a release, and please make sure you are comfortable sharing your story with the world. It’ll be online forever, but you are not required to be identified by name in the movie.)
THIS THURSDAY, August 18, from 10:30 a.m. until 7 p.m.
TIME says: Here at TIME, we are currently at work on a large scale project, the goal of which is to get a good sense of how people of all ages and backgrounds have experienced sex education in the United States. As part of the project, we’re creating a video of people from all over the country telling us their stories of how they learned about sex. We’re looking for people of all ages and backgrounds to tell us, on camera, their experience of sex education, whether it was in school health class, from their parents, from friends, television, etc.
To be clear: this isn’t a project to learn about the sex lives of strangers, nor is it a political story. We will not ask about orientations, habits, and interests. We will not ask for political opinions. We simply want your stories. We want to hear about their first lessons on sex. Did they have health class? Did they have an awkward sit-down with a parent? Did a friend or a movie or a magazine give them the wrong information?
PLEASE RSVP if you are coming, and if possible let us know what time you can make it, to carol@sexandculture.org. Feel free to pass it on!
