Sex, Explained (Season 1)

Sex, Explained (2020) is a Netflix documentary series you can watch online on iFILM. Each short episode picks one subject — attraction, birth control, fantasies, the female orgasm, or how babies understand gender — and works through it with scientists, psychologists, and real-life accounts rather than talking-head opinion.

Janelle Monáe narrates. The series spun off from the broader Explained franchise, which applied the same brisk, animated format to sleep, money, and politics. This installment covers the territory that most people search for online but rarely hear discussed clearly. DJ Khaled and Margaret Cho appear alongside reproductive medicine specialists and researchers including Viren Swami and Sherman Silber.

Five episodes, none running long. Direct, evidence-based, and easy to watch in one sitting. Stream Sex, Explained (2020) on iFILM.
