Episode 10: When We Write About Sex

from From the Margins Hosted by Girl Friday Productions

Let’s talk about sex. Or rather, let’s talk about writing about sex and what it means in a cultural context. We talk to Margaret Mallory about why the romance genre gets such a bad rap, and about what sex scenes really add to the story. And because sex isn’t always just butterflies and rose petals, we hear from writers Larissa Pham, Elissa Washuta, and Allison Moon about chronicling their own sexual experiences—including ones they would rather forget. We also hear from our own Anna Katz about what it’s like to work in Seattle’s famous feminist sex shop Toys in Babeland.
