Writing

A Better Understanding

This week we are watching a TedTalk from Dr. Emily Nagoski. It is about a delicate subject that might be uncomfortable for some. If you have an issue let me know and I will give you an alternate assignment. However, I do think it is a really important subject and information everyone should know. The topic is arousal nonconcordance. Arousal nonconcordance refers to the concept that genital response is an automatic response, unrelated to whether or not we enjoy something.

Once you complete the edpuzzle please write a response for the video. Remember a response is a brief summary and then your opinion.
