Trigger warning: This episode contains discussions of rape and incest survival, sexual assault, and repressed memories. Listen with caution.
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.
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.
