Virginity: Myths, Mystery, Madness

At last year’s IAFN Scientific Assembly there was one clear standout, as far as sessions went. So I am thrilled that that same session is now being offered as the next webinar in the IAFN 2012 Webinar Series. Hollye Gallion will be presenting Virginity: Myths, Mystery, Madness on August 9th at 2pm ET. It’s $15 for members ($30 for non-members) and nets you 1 CEU.

From the site:

The history of virginity throughout the ages is explored, from bizarre medieval “virginity checks” to current surgical procedures for “revirgination”. This presentation is suited for anyone who has ever questioned the history of virginity, why we believe what we believe and how these “truths” ultimately shape the course of child sexual abuse investigations. The longstanding myths surrounding virginity are challenged and information is provided to help the learner build a strong case even when the medical examination is normal.
