Episode 4: The History of Sex - WHY OUR SOCIETY IS SO SEXUALLY DYSFUNCTIONAL

Published Wednesday, November 13, 2024

Welcome back to My Mum's a Sex Therapist! In this episode, we’re digging into the fascinating history of sex and how our society ended up so tangled in sexual dysfunction. Jacqueline takes us on a journey through time, showing how the dawn of agriculture and the rise of war changed everything about our sexual dynamics. Starting at the roots of human history, she explores how our ancient ancestors developed deeply sexual, love centered lifestyles. Early humans thrived in matrilineal societies that worshipped the Earth Mother—but as we moved toward land ownership and patriarchal structures, control over women became a social obsession. Who could prove paternity? And how did that reshape our cultures? Jacqueline’s insights reveal how these shifts still impact us today, and why it’s up to this generation to unwind centuries of sexual repression. We explore sex as an innate tool for human bonding and how true intimacy can lead us to profound, higher-order experiences. In our weekly segment Erotic Moments, we go deeper into the hosts' lives: Claude shares a personal connection to the ocean, while Jacqueline describes a powerful meditation experience that recharged her creative energies. From prehistory to modern times, this episode is all about giving listeners the freedom to explore themselves without shame. We tackle listener questions on topics like swinging, libido changes in menopause, and tantric approaches to sex. Don’t miss out—this episode is packed with historical insight, practical tools, and thought-provoking conversation!
