Sunday night Sex with Sue (Johanson) was a staple on my TV.
When other countries were running from Sex Ed, Canada gave us this brilliant, sassy woman on TV. She went around the country educating students on sex and their own bodies. Taught us that you don't need to deep throat because a man thinks you should, just use your hand on the shaft as you suck the tip. Went to fetish shows and tried out the swings. Laughed when the vibrators she tested on camera wouldn't shut off. No question was off limits.
And empowered girls & women everywhere.
Thank you, Sue.
RIP to a Canadian icon ❤️

Canada has lost a cultural icon...
How many Canadian gen-X and Elder Millennials got their education by furtively ducking their heads under the covers late at night to listen to people phone in the questions others were afraid to ask, to get honest, matter of fact answers from this kindly woman?
RIP Sue Johansson

Sue Johanson
Everyone, raise a glass to Sue Johanson, an icon who gave some great sex ed to a lot of people.
In the late 1980s, Sue Johanson’s TV and radio program, Sunday Night Sex Show, was one of the only sources for accurate and inclusive sex education in Canada. Talking about everything from sex within the queer community to sex toys and fetishes....
I don't know if people still know her, but she was pretty damned badass.

#Sue Johanson#She was fabulous#Waaaay back in high school Health Class#There was a couple videos of sex talks she'd given in schools#And we watched them at least two different years#She was screamingly funny#And for years afterwards my sister and I could quote back entire sections#It really made it stick in your head#And then I listened to and/or watched her show on and off for years afterwards#She was a formative experience for many Canadians#When it came to sex and sexuality and gender and issues of consent#All teens should have a Sue Johanson in their lives#She was 100% an icon#And 100% a national treasure#RIP you lovely crazy lady#'Sperm know which way to swim'#*Claps arms against sides and wiggles side to side*
