Gerard Migeon is the CEO and co-founder of Natural Womanhood, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting the benefits of natural alternatives to contraception and increasing awareness about the science of women’s fertility.
For the United Nations Population Fund, a few key concepts—sex as integral to well-being, and the importance of caring for others, consent, and bodily autonomy—exhaust the moral significance of sex. Its recent statement implies that sex is nothing but a purely physical act between two bodies. But can sex be distilled so simply?
We are in the midst of a technology shift that could revolutionize reproductive healthcare and family planning.
