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.

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.
