Speaker: Sho-Sho Smith, Sex + Relationship Coach, IFS Therapist, & Author ๐ง
Prepare to have your assumptions challenged, because we have a sex and relationship coach joining Pub Scholar to unravel one of dating's most uncomfortable truths: sexual racism. What does our "type" really say about us?
We'll get into the data, the psychology, and the conversations most people avoid. From racial preferences on dating apps to beauty standards, desirability politics, and everything we hesitate to talk about. Expect honesty, some laughs, and zero judement.
Before you come, take a scroll through your match and dating history. Go on. We'll wait. ๐
