Welcome to our first Quickie! These are shorter segments of what’s in the news on sex and relationships, and this week we are covering the Kinsey Institute and Playboy's new study on the Gen Z "sex recession," hookup culture, financial stress and dating, #MeToo's unintended lessons, SSRIs and desire, celibacy as a status symbol, loneliness influencers, post-Roe caution, and Olivia Wilde's new film *I Want Your Sex*.
I am joined by Birna Gustafsson, whose episode 11 on Season 1 was a big hit!
If you've ever worried about the young people in your life, or wondered whether a sex recession is even a bad thing, this one will change how you read the headlines.
