What Is American Sex? 

This award-winning podcast is dedicated to changing America’s dysfunctional relationship with sex. Our sex lives are influenced by everything that makes us US--from our mental health to our relationships, politics, identity, and the shame our culture instills in us and relies on for control. Understanding how these things seep into our bedrooms makes all the kinky, pervy, weird stuff we’re secretly into seem not so weird after all. 

Hosts, Sunny Megatron & Ken Melvoin-Berg, are acclaimed Sex & BDSM Educators. They also co-created the groundbreaking Showtime Original Series, Sex with Sunny Megatron. Equal parts hilarious and informative, Sunny, Ken & their guests serve up real-talk about kink, polyamory, sexual ethics, and LGBTQIA+ subjects. From practical BDSM & sex tips to discussions about systematic repression of pleasure & sexual empowerment, each topic is approached with a lightheartedness that’s second to none. 

We believe Kink is Cutomizable™, education is the new punk rock, the personal is political, tinkle-your-pants laughter is an anecdote to sexual shame, and that collectively we can subvert this backward-ass system by finding power in our pleasure.

Graydancer & Naiia: Redefining BDSM Communities - Ep 52

Jul 30, 2018

Original photos by Mistress MayhemWe sat down with BDSM & rope bondage superstars, Graydancer & Naiia, to talk about the BDSM “scene”. Some assume this group is ripe with open communication, ethical behavior, and clearly negotiated consent because those concepts are cornerstones of BDSM. It turns out kink communities have their fair share of toxicity and inequity too-- just like most other social groups. Gray & Naiia share some innovative perspectives on these issues and discuss possible solutions. They’ve even implemented some themselves, namely popularizing an “open source” style conference model that is revolutionizing the way the rope and kink communities operate. Interestingly, this conversation doesn’t just apply to kink-- most communities (yoga, theater, work groups, bowling leagues-- you name it!) can benefit from this episode. Appropriately we recorded this live at the COPE BDSM conference which was the perfect backdrop! (Original photo used in our episode art by Mistress Mayhem)
