Show Notes
Danielle Corsetto has been reading Emily's newly released book, Come As You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life (available soon in the UK). Danielle asks questions about what makes sex hurt, and whether that's normal. They also discuss the male-centric definitions of sex (especially as it pertains to orgasm), as well as how Big Pharma is trying to medicalize women's sexual dysfunction with "Female Viagra".

New from Emily and Amelia Nagoski: The Feminist Survival Project 2020. A podcast for feminists who feel overwhelmed and exhausted by everything we need to get done in 2020, and still worry that we're not doing enough.
Recorded live at TopatoCon 2015, Emily and an all-star panel of guests discuss a wide variety of topics: finding pleasure rather than accepting what you're stuck with, body image, vulva puppetry, feeling trapped by lack of education, and the miraculous powers of a legendary...Magic Wand.
Her podcasting schedule completely wrecked by Book Tour (which is going great, by the way!), Emily "phones in" a micro-episode where she answers listener mail. How do we deal with the way our partner relationships change over time? "Very carefully" is the short answer.
"Penny Hall" in New Zealand has spent her life at war with a phantom self that has informed who she thinks she's supposed to be sexually. She talks about her lifelong discovery process of determining whether she is, in fact, Super-Sexy Lady, or if her authentic Sexual Identity is really "just" Penny Hall. "Penny Hall" will return.
"Cindy Lou" has never had an orgasm. She discusses her experiences and Emily assigns her homework.
