Dr Kate Lister: Just Give It a Little Flick

There is a common misconception that before modern day feminism, women throughout history simply lay back and thought of England or their respective place of origin; that the modern ‘sex positive’ movement is a radical break from the past. But women demanding better sex did not arrive with free love or the Rampant Rabbit. It has been a very long fight indeed. From Ancient Mesopotamian sex goddesses to the contraceptive pill, Dr Kate Lister, host of award-winning History Hit podcast Betwixt the Sheets.. and author of FLICK, will take us through history to show us how women’s sexual pleasure was controlled, understood and thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed.
