Challenges of Studying Sex in Space and Societal Barriers

In this week's edition of Routine Checkup, the fellas sit down with Maria Santaguida. A Ph.D. candidate and lecturer in the Department of Psychology at Concordia University. She specializes in human sexuality, sexual technology, and substance-related sexual risk behaviours. Most interestingly her work also explores space sexology (the scientific study of extraterrestrial sexuality and intimacy) and how we can integrate sex research into space programs. In late 2021, she co-authored an article titled “The Case for Space Sexology”, which is published in the Journal of Sex Research. So... are astronauts doinking? If so, how does one doink in zero-G? These important questions and more on this week's Routine Checkup! *Join the post-episode conversation over on Discord! https://discord.gg/expeUDN
