How Has Porn Changed Through History?
Description
With Christmas around the corner and everything being oh-so wholesome, we thought we would offer an episode from the archives of something not-so wholesome: a history of porn.
What did porn look like before the internet? Who was it for? And how has it changed since?
In this episode, Kate chats to Kathleen Lubey, a professor at St. John’s University and specialist in eighteenth-century literature.
Kathleen talks us through the history of pornography… that is, the type of history that can’t be deleted.
Produced by Charlotte Long and Sophie Gee. Mixed by Anisha Deva.
All music from Epidemic Sounds.
