Episode 51
Show Notes #51
Interview with Dr. Mitch Tepper, Sex and Disabilities, Research on Black Women and Sex
This week we cover a few topics that affect us as we age. We have the great pleasure to have Dr. Mitchell Tepper, a sexologist who focuses on sex and disabilities on our show. And we continue our exploration into sexuality for Black History Month.
Mitch discusses his research and an extraordinary documentary he and Dr. Mark Schoen are creating called, “Love After War.” It’s an in-depth look into the lives of active duty service members and veterans who have returned home with physical and/or psychological health challenges that are creating difficulties in their intimate and sexual lives as they age. Here’s a link to the film so you can see the trailer.
Continuing our exploration into Black History Month, we translate some recent research results about Black women’s sexuality and aging from Dr. Erika Evans-Weaver.
Here are the links to the articles and research cited on this show:
