The most common question that a sꬴxologist or sꬴx therapist encounters is “Am I normal?”. It seems that most people are deeply concerned about how their sꬴxual preferences, desires and actions compare with those of others. That isn’t too surprising, given the social nature of our species.
At the same time that we may seek to fit in with those around us, we also crave the freedom to follow our heart, wherever it may lead us. In this episode, we’ll explore the balance between those opposing desires, and we’ll consider the upside and downside of conformity.
