When I was growing up, conversations about sex were framed entirely around risk and the things I could do to protect myself. I’ve come to believe that this is wrong, even dangerous, because it prevents us from truly understanding what sexuality is.

I left Canada 5 years ago for a postdoc in Australia, where pay is 2-3 times higher. That PhDs and postdocs have had 0 wage increase in 20 years is pathetic. Raising salaries is morally right and economically beneficial. @CIHR_IRSC @NSERC_CRSNG @SSHRC_CRSH
