The First Pornographic Novel Had it All

In this episode I want to introduce you to the first ever pornographic novel and share why it was so radical, and why it is so important. Brace yourself, Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John Cleveland has it all, which is why it was banned for over 200 years. So get off Porn Hub and check out the very first, and very popular, pornographic novel from 1748.
