Jan Hindman: “There Is No Sex Fairy”

Jan Hindman is the author of “There Is No Sex Fairy,” a stinging indictment of those who think not talking about sex is the best way to protect children from abuse and a how-to on “raising sexually respectful children.”

“Of course we love our children. We raise them to be Baptists, Catholics and Mormons. We teach them how to do Little League, and how to make a good omelet. But when it comes to sex, we do nothing. We just hope the Sex Fairy will zap them in the crotch when they walk down the aisle to get married and magically, they will turn into sexually healthy adults.”

Ms. Hindman gave one of today’s keynotes at a child abuse conference in Jefferson City. I was there helping a couple of clients blog the event.

I don’t have children and didn’t expect to hear anything very interesting or relevant (for me) from the speakers, but Ms. Hindman blew me a-way. She was a fantastic speaker. Funny, passionate…did I mention funny? She was just damned good.

She spoke for an hour but I encourage anyone with children (or planning to have some someday) to download the file and listen.

Ever wonder how we can have so many sick fucks in this country? Ms. Hindman explains.

One more thing. When asked how she’d like to be introduced, she answered: “I’m fun and I dance close.”
