Amy Instagram – Today we have started a new podcast about many important topics such as 🤫 SEX 🤫 launching in 2025.
Why do we NEED to be discussing sex in India?
The fact, is that India has a huge problem when it comes to sexuality. A woman is raped every 16 minutes. 16 minutes?!
When the rape in Kolkata happened – what did we do? A few stories and a candle march. Did any laws change? Did anything CHANGE?
India’s issues with sex are DEEPLY TIED to its cultural, social, and historical complexities. Despite its rich history of celebrating sexuality in texts like the Kamasutra and temple art, modern India largely views sex as taboo, driven by patriarchal norms.
This repression leads to harmful consequences, from a lack of sex education to skewed gender dynamics where men are sexually frustrated and women are shamed for their desires.
Openly discussing sex is not just a personal matter…it’s an ethical one. Conversations about sexuality intersect with broader issues of human rights, gender equality, and individual agency. A society that avoids these discussions perpetuates harm, suppressing progress toward equitable and respectful relationships. For India, tackling these taboos is essential for addressing systemic issues like gender-based violence and improving sexual health outcomes.
Open dialogue is not only about sexual liberation; it’s about building a society grounded in respect, empathy, and informed consent…values that align with India’s broader goals of modernity and ethical progress.
