Annie Philpott is a public health professional, pleasure propagandist and ‘guerrilla girl’ of HIV prevention. She founded The Pleasure Project in 2004, an international education and advocacy organization working to eroticize safer sex. The Pleasure Project builds bridges between the public health world and the pleasure and sex industry, and help to develop the evidence base for a sex-positive and pleasure-based approach to sexual health and rights. You can read more about her work here and follow The Pleasure Project on Twitter here.
We talk about The Pleasure Project's important work in entering sexual pleasure as key to sexual rights and sexual health, and the ways that certain sex is more stigmatized than others. Annie talks about the exciting projects that The Pleasure Project is doing to put the sexy into safer sex, the importance of pleasure inclusive sexual health, and the pleasure wave.
