Interviews and Podcasts
I feel that sexuality education is often a grass roots attempt to reach out to the every-person, and thus include for your perusal samples of newspaper interviews and podcasts that bring the ideas of sexual diversity to the masses who choose not to or are unable to visit therapists, counselors, or attend classes.
