Ari Kytsya facing major backlash for her speech
Ari Kytsya is a popular social media influencer who was recently invited to speak to a Psych 201 class on human s*xuality. She spoke as a guest lecturer for a unit led by Dr. Nicole, focusing on digital labor, online personas, and the psychology behind sexualized media spaces.
