Description

<p>Trigger warning: This episode contains discussions of rape and incest survival, sexual assault, and repressed memories. Listen with caution.</p><br/><p>This episode centers around the stories movies tell men about boundaries. Consent is a very real issue in our society, and movies do no one a favor by constantly reinforcing the narratives that, for real men, no boundary is too strict to cross, provided that you have a purpose. Christopher Nolan's visual masterpiece Inception is a perfect example of how deep this myth runs.</p><br/><p><br/></p><br/><p>A very special thank you to Elizabeth McConaghy, PhD. Your continued work to help other survivors of sexual assault tell their stories is inspiring, and I want to personally thank you for helping me tell mine. </p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
