Girl on Girl, Part II: Desire, Consent, & the Marketplace of Pleasure

Join hosts Ashley, Mhairie, and Mariquita as they return for the much-anticipated follow-up to their deep dive into Girl on Girl by Sophie Gilbert. In this episode, the conversation moves beyond pop culture's impact on women and digs into the murky intersection of porn, commodification, and the market's influence on sexual agency. Prepare for a thoughtful and candid exploration of what it means to possess—and reclaim—real agency in a world that often packages sex and desire as products.   Books Mentioned:  Girl on Girl by Sophie Gilbert   Support and follow our guest and host!
