Mae Whitman Talks All Things Sex With Her Mom in New PSA

Mae Whitman has “the talk” with her mom in a new PSA.

The Duff actress sat down with her mama, Pat Musick, for the second installment of Refinery29 and Planned Parenthood’s “Her Shorts” series. In the video titled “Talking to Kids About Sex,” the mother-daughter duo chat candidly about “the deed” even recounting her first time.

“I’ve always been really open with her and talked with her a lot about sex, and so [this video] seemed like a really natural fit,” Whitman told the website. “When I was younger, my mom worked really hard to establish a safe place where there wouldn’t be judgment of whatever aspect of my sexuality. I’m not scared to be like, ‘Jesus, Mom, I ate a giant onion burger three times in a row for six days,’ and then ask her questions about my sexuality."

The Parenthood star added that she hopes that their video will inspire people to reach out to their parents or other adults they trust for guidance in matters of sex. Mae said she was especially pleased to partner with Planned Parenthood after using their services herself.

"There was a time where I had a pregnancy scare and I was out of town,” she explains, “and I went to Planned Parenthood just to ask questions without being judged. It felt like having parents there."

Now, she says, "I will do whatever it takes to keep those lines of communication [that Planned Parenthood provides] open [for other people].” The actress even wrote an essay about her experience with the organization in May for National Teen Pregnancy Prevention Month.

Her video follows Jack Antonoff’s installment of “Her Shorts,” which discussed the services that Planned Parenthood offers to men.
