The Elephant in the Bedroom | Pallavi Barnwal | TEDxNapierBridge

Regardless of the number of awareness campaigns, sex still remains a taboo topic of conversation, even among adults. The consequences range from higher abortion and teen pregnancy rates to lack of sexual education and empowerment. Pallavi discusses the importance of having conversations about sex in the living room, and the approach to be taken to break the taboo. Through her nation-wide offline initiative "Tongue Tied," Pallavi brings men and women in a safe, compassionate space for a fluid and honest discussion about personal sexuality and intimacy. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
