Sex Toys with Sarah Forbes

Sex toys: ancient history, cultural icon, and—if Sarah Forbes has anything to say about it—essential to our understanding of sexuality. This week, Danusia sits down with the anthropologist and former curator of the Museum of Sex in New York to talk about the rise (and rise) of sex toys, the deep-rooted taboos around pleasure, and why we need to stop acting like vibrators were invented last week.   We get into it all: the women who curate collections of sex toys like others collect fine wine, the psychology of private vs. shame, and why investing in high-end pleasure tech might just be self-care at its finest. Oh, and then we take a detour into the world of sex dolls—because, of course.   Expect frank talk, fascinating insights, and a solid reminder that knowing your body is power. Let’s put the stigma to bed, shall we?   Discover more from us: • Join PWT community on Substack • Follow us on Instagram • Connect with Danusia • Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts • Advertising Inquiries here   Credits: • Hosted by Danusia Malina-Derben • Edited, Mixed + Mastered by Marie Cruz • Cover art by Anthony Oram
