I often get the following questions:
“How do I raise my daughter so she doesn’t have to struggle with the same things I did?”
“How do I raise my daughter to love her body?”
“With all the porn out there, how can I teach my daughter to respect herself and to celebrate her authentic sexuality?”
I love, love, love that so many parents are raising their children with a new awareness around sexuality.
And that so many mothers are doing the work themselves, in their own bodies, so their daughters can lead more empowering, confident and sexually celebratory lives.
Hallelujah!!
And these questions can be complicated.
While I am not a mother, I actually focused on sex education at Stanford and was passionate about changing the way we educate teenagers and children around sexuality.
I’ve combined my education and experience to offer you the best (non-parent’s) guide to raising a sexually empowered daughter below.
