More about this lecture

As a psychotherapist and certified sex therapist working primarily with patients in the 20’s and 30’s in New York City, I have heard and witnessed the ever-changing attitudes about gender identity and sexual expression. How do the current trends in gender and sexual expression impact the media and fashion? Are media and fashion depicting people’s views or are they shaping them? This presentation will address these questions and encourage a lively discussion from the audience.
