Below you will find the resources that Amy Lang, our speaker from last Tuesday (2/1) mentioned. Also attached you will find her "Three Myths" handout for quick reference. 

One of Amy's great points in her talk was that we should take a moment and think about what our values are around sex/sexuality. Amy has strong opinions about how you should handle all of this but please don’t feel like it is the only way to approach it... we hope that something in the talk helped and if nothing else, helped you clarify what your values are around sex/sexuality. See you all next week!
