Science now establishes that more happens during sex than physical activity. The largest and most important sex organ is the brain. In fact, the brain itself is being moulded by sexual behaviour.
In this episode, we sat down with Joe McIlhaney to discuss his book. Hooked: The Brain Science on How Casual Sex Affects Human Development explains how casual sex affects the developing brains of adolescents and young adults. Joe stresses the significance of role models of the parents, and how important it is to steer the kids away from making life-changing mistakes, and lead them toward reaching their full potential.
