Join the Sexual and Gender-Based Violence Support and Response Office and the Women’s Resource Centre for a viewing of the second episode of The Big Sex Talk, a docuseries from CBC about all things sexuality, gender, and relationships! This episode, “Not Having It”, asks what it means to be asexual in a hypersexualized world, if we should rethink pleasure, and whether cake is better than sex. Our screening will be followed by a talk and Q&A with Theresa Kenney, who makes an appearance in the episode to discuss asexuality, alternative pleasures, and more.
