Episode 54: Sex for One

Welcome to the Sex Ed Book Review Podcast! In this installment, Landa dives into the CLASSIC book "Sex for One" by Betty Dodson. Landa and Barb explore the author's journey as a pioneering sexual health educator, discuss the book’s frank approach to solo sex and self-pleasure, and reflect on its impact, strengths, and legacy. Whether you’re a longtime fan of sex ed resources or just curious about the evolution of conversations around self-pleasure between the 1970's and today, this episode offers thoughtful insights, a few laughs, and plenty of book recommendations for your to-be-read pile.

SHOW NOTES:

Learn more about Betty: https://www.dodsonandross.com/ (CW: some real photographs of genitals on the website - not pornographic but educational.)

There is a great free clip from SlutEver with Betty where she calls herself a professional masturbator in the interview (and it’s a delight)
