Unpopular Opinion # 102040

You know everybody was slamming Netflix’s Big Mouth for how ugly it is, and yeah its really ugly…BUT. Its also one of the few shows about sex I’ve seen talk openly about-

1. Female Sexuality and how it exists. 2. How women experience arousal in different ways than men including through literature/smells/ideas/experiences. 3. How periods work and how the vagina works (through song and Kristen Wiig respectively) 4.How both women and men can initiate unwelcome sexual contact 5. THE IMPORTANCE OF CONSENT 6. There was a whole section of one episode about calling out an abuser on his behavior and being supported by others (including men) and not being slut shamed. 7. That being gay is OK and sometimes you are unsure of your orientation and that’s OK too because its on a spectrum. 8.How the body feels gross during puberty and there’s nothing wrong with that.

The show is clearly aimed at a younger (middle school to high school) audience and despite its gross out humor and weird out of touch Seinfeld jokes I think its oddly educational and I’m kinda glad it was made. Also I could watch Maya Rudolph be the Hormone Monstress forever. She legit made me laugh a few times. Thanks Maya.
