EARLY UPLOAD: A History of Food and Sex (Patreon)
Content
I've always been obsessed with the things we eat and why, and I hope to explore it in avariety of ways in future content. We've talked about black food history (but there's more!!), 80's food history, and 90s food history, but what about food and sex? This one was very fun to research and write. I think it serves as an anchor for other sex history content-- masturbation, oral, etc. I hope you enjoy and I'll be back with long-format content in late April and Early May!
