Susie starts off with a dictionary teaser. What is a cuckquean? It's a woman who married a gay man and therefore has a depressed libido. Next, in another New York City interview, Susie talks with Victorian-age sexuality historian Professor Sharon Marcus. Susie asks why today's society is more prudish than the high-laced-collar Victorians'. Marcus has a new book, Between Women: Friendship, Desire, and Marriage in Victorian England. Susie and Sharon discuss whether lesbian sex was first born within the good-girl Victorian friendships. Then, in the "Try This at Home" mailbag, Susie explores why one woman's sex drive was killed by her birth-control device. Don't forget, you can send your confidential questions, feedback about the show, and requests for girly cards to susie@audible.com. (Episode 310, September 21, 2007)
