Susie has a beef with many women's magazines. "Faking It: Sex, Lies, and Women's Magazines", an article by Liza Featherstone in Columbia Journalism Review, brings up many questions on the merit of magazine stories that produce sexual anxiety, obsession, and insecurities. Susie goes over some of the headlines you've seen while checking out on the grocery line: "7 Great Tips for Better Sex", "The 5 Most Erotic Body Parts", and "The 10 Best Places to Make Love".

Next: more mixed messages, with a story about depression and prescription drugs.

[Contains explicit content] From 2008: Today's show features three big topics, including voyeurism, sexual myths, and uncircumcised men. Susie starts off with a big question: Who would you like to watch having sex? Who is in your fantasy? According to one of Susie's favorite fellow sexperts, Cory Silverberg, we don't see enough regular sex. Instead, we're inundated with unrealistic media images, which make us think we are missing out when it comes to sexual know-how.

And surprisingly, you'll hear from Roland Barthes, the French grand master of theoretical criticism, as Susie quotes from his classic book A Lover's Discourse to make sense of her suffering through rejection from both sexes.

[Contains explicit content] From 2009: Susie is ready to scream. A recent study once again showed that women are not reaching orgasm nearly as often as men. It's not fair! Susie looks at the role oral sex has with this unfortunate gap between men's and women's pleasure. Seems like there's a lot more giving head and less eating pussy happening these days.
