🎙️ Ep 041 – Lauren Elise Rogers – Purity Culture, Secret Fantasies & Escaping Shame

Dirty Secrets Ep 041 “Lauren Elise Rogers – Purity Culture, Secret Fantasies & Escaping Shame” Ever tried to go from “don’t touch yourself” to “be a sex goddess overnight”? Yeah... it doesn’t exactly work. Lauren Elise Rogers was raised in deep evangelical purity culture, married a man who later came out as gay, and spent years untangling shame from her sexuality. Now? She’s a sex educator on a mission. We go deep on obligatory sex, religious guilt, post-divorce horniness, and why masturbation was her ultimate act of rebellion. Lauren shares her fantasies (hello, teacher/student), the therapy that saved her, and what purity culture really does to long-term relationships. If you were raised to feel bad about pleasure—or still can’t shake that inner guilt—you’re going to love this one. @DirtySecretsPodcast @KateShelor @laureneliserogers
