It's just this massive part of life that we're expected to just know about.

From silence at home to awkward classes in school, most of us picked up our ideas about sex wherever we could get them.

And now we're adults expected to just know what we're doing.

So today we're talking about your sexual script.

All the stuff you learned growing up about sex, bodies and desire and how it's still running the show.

I'm joined by Olivia Teehan, sex educator and psychosexual therapist in training, who's here to help us unpack it all.

This episode is about understanding where the awkwardness comes from.

Hello.

Hello there.

It's great to have you.

I'm delighted.

Psychosexual therapist in training.

So when people will come to you when you're qualified and pass with flying colours, what will the problems be?

Well, it's good to hear that men are coming to you because sometimes when we have these conversations, it's generally women's problems we're talking about.

And they're, you know, they're a little bit better at coming to therapy in this regard with things that are happening in their body and sexual experiences and that kind of thing.

So you're getting a lot of men in.

Yeah.

That's great.

It's lovely.

Fair play to them.
