Summary

In this episode I explore the collapse of sex separated or sex sacred (as I like to say) spaces in our society. By charging into men’s spaces (i.e. Boy Scouts) women have actually lost so much of the respect and affection from men that they crave. Listen in to hear why same-sex spaces aren’t about exclusion but protection, a story about an Aboriginal tribe’s view on it, a reaction to women entering Australia's bars for the first time in 1974, the confusion about female sexuality and empowerment, and much more.
