Sexual liberation is so important - for both our physical and mental health. Virginity is a concept that remains to hold some pretty retrogressive assumptions - girls are told to hold on to it whilst boys are told to get rid of it as soon as they possibly can. In this episode we discussed why we attach a certain value to virginity, and delved into the quite shocking history of the subject. We also explored the heteronormative culture of virginity, chatting about how it struggles to fit into the LGBTQ+ discourse and ends up alienating a huge number of people.
