Are We Ok? The Sex Recession Explained
About this Event
📚Lecture: "Are We Ok? The Sex Recession Explained"
🎤Speaker: Natalia Jaczkowski & Madelaine Dorion (Sex Educators & CLIMAX Conference Co-Founders)
Young adults are experiencing a sex drought but does it actually matter?
From burnout and dating app fatigue to loneliness, shifting norms, and changing ideas about intimacy, this bold talk explores the forces reshaping our intimate lives and examines why this trend may be a problem in some ways - and not in others.
Drawing on neuroscience and sexual wellbeing research, we’ll ask a bigger question: what if the issue isn’t that people are having less sex, but that too many people aren’t having sex that feels pleasurable, connected, meaningful, and worth wanting?
Through a kink-positive, shame-free lens, we’ll connect sex to mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing, making the case that sex isn’t trivial, it is a vital human wellness resource.
Natalia (@kinksandcoffee) and Maddy (@sexedwithmadds) are sex educators and co-founders of the CLIMAX Conference, Ottawa’s leading sexual wellness and intimacy conference. For years, they’ve collaborated on creating inclusive and empowering spaces where adults can explore sex and connection with curiosity, from fitness classes and movie nights to craft workshops and dance parties. Their work blends education with play, making conversations about intimacy more accessible and engaging. They believe learning about sex isn’t a one-time event, but a lifelong, evolving journey, because we are always changing as sexual beings.
