The Radical Sex Witches

We've talked on the show before about sex work through history, and how women who were sex workers were shunned by society and treated as the lowest of the low (and often continue to be). But in this episode we want to share with you about certain cultures and times in history where trading sex for money was considered a form of worship and put women in a position of prestige and power. * Cur...

As humans, sex is a huge part of our lives. And while we live in an era of growing sex positivity, the subject of STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections) continues to be clouded with shame and a stigma that is usually worse than the infection itself.  So how do we change the conversation from one that masks the reality of STIs to one that prioritizes health and understanding? Well, by having more c...

Sex is filled with the weird and wonderful, and sex in the animal kingdom is no exception.

It's an...

It was rough being a woman in medieval and early modern Europe. You had no land, no rights, were a spinster by age 15 and dead by 40. And that’s assuming you weren't put on trail for being a witch somewhere in the middle. In this episode we uncover the sad tales of how women were tested to prove their involvement with witchcraft and how outcomes of these tests would determine whether they liv...

So, grab your trimmers as we journey th...
