Dr Fern Riddell is a cultural historian specialising in sex, suffrage and culture in the Victorian and Edwardian eras. She appears regularly on TV and radio and hosts the history podcast Not What You Thought You Knew, where she explores how history has made us who we are today. She was also the Historical Consultant on the BAFTA award winning BBC drama Ripper Street and as an on screen expert has appeared in documentaries for the BBC, ITV, C4, C5 and Sky Arts.
In this episode we dive deep into Fern's new book, Sex: Lessons from History, in which she takes us on an illuminating journey to discover the sexual lives of our ancestors. From flirtation to masturbation and everything in between, we talk James Joyce's love letters, Victorian taboos, and when and why the female orgasm stopped being a top sexual priority.
