    CIW gathers the brightest researchers, experts, innovators and unique personalities to put everyone’s favorite topic (admit it!) at the forefront of an intellectual and engaging conversation about sex and relationships in the modern age. Exploring everything from the psychology of sex to the science of attraction, the changing sex industry to our biggest cultural taboos, this provocative and enlightening sex ed lesson promises to be the best you’ve ever had.
