#82 - Let's Talk About Sex with Melody Cheng (Asian Boss Girl)
Did you or anyone EVER actually have "the talk" with their parents? How did you learn what sex was? SexED? Movies + TV? When/how did you discover porn? How did it effect your attitude as a grown up? Sex is a huge driving force and one prolonged mystery to many of us out there. Some people have been wildly fortunate to have nurturing, mature elders who provide a safe entry into the world of intimacy and carnal knowledge, while the rest...were left to our own devices. In this episode, Minji sits down with Mel Cheng from the amazing Asian Boss Girl Podcast to start unpacking this doozy of a topic. Together they share their experiences learning about what sex is and how to become a healthy and mature sexual human being. Whether it's about the mechanics, the psychology, or the deeply emotional parts of sex, we are all figuring this out yall. Grab a drink or a fluffy pillow, and let's talk.

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR
"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
