We have seen a resurgence in arguments against promiscuity and in favour of marriage and traditional family, but Zoe Strimpel went in a different direction. In her new book, Good Slut: How Money, Sex and Power Set Women Free, Zoe pushes back against narratives of victimhood and fragility commonly attached to women, that suggest being a “slut” is not liberatory, but damaging. What can women gain from our autonomy and independence? Is it possible we can “have it all,” after all?
This week on the podcast, I speak with Zoe about casual sex, the pitfalls of marriage, and whether Bonnie Blue does in fact love what she does.
