What if the sexual revolution was the biggest lie ever sold to women? With her new book, The Case Against the Sexual Revolution: A New Guide to Sex in the 21st Century, journalist and campaigner against male sexual violence, Louise Perry has penned a fierce, bold, radical exploration of whose interests sex positivism really serves. Spoiler: it ain’t women. 

She chats to Mickey about sociosexuality, the murky nature of consent, taking sex seriously, how porn is ruining our sex lives, why she’s not Mary Whitehouse, and the freedom that comes with knowing you’re probably going to annoy everyone.
