    About this Episode

    Our guest this week is the thoughtful and wise-beyond-her-years, Lily, whose sexual debut with a genderqueer person (also named Lily!) opened her eyes to true intimacy and what a fun, safe, and caring first time can be. We also discuss the role of gender in sexual attraction, the wonders of oral pleasure, the frustration of knowing you’re a sensual being with nowhere to put your desire, virginity as a heteronormative social construct, big Scorpio energy, and the road to self-acceptance.

    We’re talking late-in-life virginity with writer Amanda McCracken, whose personal essays on the topic have been featured in the NY Times, HuffPost, and in her upcoming book, “How Longing Became My Lover.” She gets candid about being the “token virgin” of her friends, sexual anorexia, a weird encounter with Katie Couric, virginity’s shelf life, and more.
