Love & Passion Quote by Susie Bright

"My idea of the ideal sex education site doesn't exist"

About this Quote

A sex educator admitting defeat is a kind of dare: if Susie Bright, patron saint of frank talk and dirty honesty, says the ideal site doesn’t exist, she’s not shrugging. She’s diagnosing a structural problem in how we package sex as “content.”

The line works because it refuses the Silicon Valley fantasy that every human mess has a clean UX solution. “Ideal” implies a single portal that’s accurate, inclusive, trauma-aware, pleasure-forward, medically sound, politically savvy, erotically literate, and somehow safe for a teenager on a school Chromebook and a bored married couple at midnight. Bright’s subtext is that sex education fails when it pretends sex is one topic with one audience. It’s anatomy and ethics, desire and danger, identity and power, bodies that change, rules that don’t fit, culture that shames, porn that teaches by default. No site can be neutral because sex isn’t.

Context matters: Bright came up through sex-positive feminism and the magazine-era internet, when “education” and “erotica” were adjacent shelves, not separate apps with brand guidelines. She’s watched abstinence politics, censorship regimes, and platform moderation turn information into contraband and pleasure into a liability. The sentence reads like a professional verdict and a personal refusal to sell a false promise.

By naming the nonexistence, Bright makes room for something more realistic: a patchwork of resources, voices, and community knowledge - imperfect, but alive. The ideal isn’t a destination page. It’s an ongoing argument about what people deserve to know, and who gets to say it.
