EP493 - The Forgotten Sex Study That Changed Women’s Pleasure Forever

Welcome to episode 493 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I am excited to be joined by Rosa Campbell, [https://www.rosa-campbell.com/] who speaks to me about Shere Hite, The Hite Report, and the ongoing struggle to centre women’s sexual pleasure. In this episode, Rosa introduces us to Shere Hite’s groundbreaking 1976 book, The Hite Report, which gathered women’s honest experiences of sex, orgasm, desire, and dissatisfaction at a time when their voices were rarely included in sexology research.

She works on the global history of feminism and is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at King's College London and holds a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Beyond academia, she writes often for a public audience.
