This talk by Cindy Gallop is about a subject that is still taboo for many, human sexuality.

Expressing concern at the effects of the “creeping ubiquity of hardcore pornography” into pop culture, advertising consultant Cindy Gallop explains the origins and goals of her website, Make Love Not Porn (www.makelovenotporn.com). Gallop describes the site as a forum for young adults to learn and speak frankly about sexuality.

Enjoy!
