It’s not just about sex. Sex education should be giving us the information we need to feel in control of our bodies and make informed decisions about them – but it’s failing. In episode four of Vagina Dispatches, we speak to our moms, friends and sex educators to find out why.

Women are less likely to orgasm than men – but is it really more difficult for women? Mona and Mae go into the lab with a neuroscientist who measures orgasms to try and find the answer.
