Vane and Jorge sit with the insightful Dr. Lynn Comella, Associate Professor, Gender and Sexuality Studies at University of Nevada-Las Vegas (how appropriate!), and author of "Vibrator Nation: How Feminist Sex-Toy Stores Changed the Business of Pleasure" to get real about porn.
This episode came about after we read Dr. Comella's response to renowned anti-porn feminist, Dr. Gail Dines, and Vane expressed being a "porn skeptic" after seeing the current state of porn. Discussion includes: can porn be feminist? Is porn affecting and even hurting sexual interactions today, or is it an empowering form of media?
