Once taboo, now good for you: the psychology of masturbation

Description

This week we're talking about something intimate … And at-times taboo … Masturbation.

From self-love, to disordered behaviour, and back again, how our perceptions of masturbation have changed over the course of history and why it's still linked to shame and confusion for some.

Also — why do humans (and other animals) masturbate in the first place?

Just a heads up, if the topic didn't give it away, this episode may not be suitable for little ones.

After listening, why not check out Sex is Weird, a series from our fellow science podcast, What the Duck?!

Really!!? No one has written a comment yet! I just finished listening to this episode for the third time, not only it was an interesting topic, but also it was informative for me. There were a few episodes that I've enjoyed that much and listened more than once. Good job Sana👌
