The History of Horniness
Added 2024-07-18 21:00:06 +0000 UTC
Take a drink every time I say 'horned up' this episode.
In a vast pivot from last week's episode, today we are talking about all things HORNY! I was researching women's libido and the differences in it from men's libido which led to an entire episode about the history of our narratives around sex. We tend to view sex as shameful and dangerous...but did we always? What factors led to us thinking this? And are men always more horny than women? How can women increase their libido and what makes it tick?
Of course, too, I talk at the end about our "horniest" celebrities haha.
Let me know your thoughts on this, and apologies in advance for making anyone uncomfortable by saying the word "horny" so much and apologies to my parents for doing an episode on this at all hahaha.

Shannon thank you so much for the advil/glass of water tip! I couldn’t get my partner to drink water if he was paid to but I told him about the advil instructions last night and just saw him guzzle a glass of water after taking a CBD gummy. LOL but also how can I thank you enough? 😂🙏🤪

Omg the not wanting to flirt with your partner bc it might lead to something you didn’t sign up for part is so real!!! Feels good to know I’m not alone

Feeling so seen in the discussion about our internalized fear of giving dudes blue balls and not wanting to provoke my long time partner in fear of needing to “finish the job” - this is something that is not talked about and is sooo real.

I'm really enjoying these interesting topics for episodes. And your stories kill me.
A few years ago my friend told me about a man coming up to her at a gas station and asking to take pics of her feet for his frat pledge week. I was like umm no girl he had a foot fetish. She had no idea. After I said that she was like now that you say that, he did look like he was about 40 so how was it for a frat? Lmao 💀
I know it was a slip of the tongue, but I would agree with the statement that marriage before sex is wrong 😂

I studied water management at university and my lecturer told me that men are indirectly consuming oestrogen because so many women are on birth control now that there are just overall higher levels of it in our waste products and during water treatment the oestrogen is too small the be caught by modern water treatment so when men drink it water they are essentially micro dosing on oestrogen over long periods of time. It’s also massively affected fish in areas where waste water is discharged into water bodies.

No Shannon!!!- literally used to daydream about being able to use my finger to pee as a kid on long road trips. My child brain was like I can just stick my finger out the window 😆 it’s a great idea - also for camping

Oh and the foot fetish thing—i think its such an innocent thing but i guess its the fetish part, like its the obsessiveness, why was he thinking about your feet for three months? Thats the odd part. Personally, my first sexual experience was with a foot guy (my age!!) and it was totally fine! But he’s not asking for feet vids years later bc he’s not a freak…idk man
