This Podcast Is Asking For It: The Yes Means Yes Show Episode 68
The brilliant Kate Harding turns her incisive snark on rape culture in her new book Asking For It: The Alarming Rise of Rape Culture -- and What We Can Do About It, and she joins Jaclyn for a surprisingly hilarious chat about it, including false rape allegations, early consent education, the recent outbreak of high-profile girl-on-girl victim blaming (srsly, WTF?!?), and how to resist the siren call of the comments section. Then we help out a listener who is getting mixed messages about masturbation.Click here to listen! And don't forget to subscribe: iTunes / Stitcher / RSSShow notes:
