but in 1961 we had this remarkable

but in 1961 we had this remarkable availability for the first time ever in

availability for the first time ever in

availability for the first time ever in the history of the world of the

the history of the world of the

the history of the world of the contraceptive pill now we could control

contraceptive pill now we could control

inheritors of that experience it is

inheritors of that experience it is remarkable that we can actually begin to

remarkable that we can actually begin to

remarkable that we can actually begin to think about our bodies as potentially

think about our bodies as potentially

think about our bodies as potentially sources of pleasure not just as

sources of pleasure not just as

sources of pleasure not just as reproductive processes because if we

reproductive processes because if we

reproductive processes because if we look at the history of understanding

look at the history of understanding

look at the history of understanding about sex we can see that for hundreds

about sex we can see that for hundreds

about sex we can see that for hundreds and hundreds of years before 1935

and hundreds of years before 1935

something else seemed to happen there was a thing called relationship and we

was a thing called relationship and we

was a thing called relationship and we began to get a relational view of sex of

began to get a relational view of sex of

began to get a relational view of sex of course Hollywood at that time couldn’t

course Hollywood at that time couldn’t

course Hollywood at that time couldn’t show anything sexual but there was an

the sunset something was going to happen

the sunset something was going to happen so there’s a relational view of sex but

so there’s a relational view of sex but

so there’s a relational view of sex but then in 1961 we get the pill the

then in 1961 we get the pill the

then in 1961 we get the pill the contraceptive pill across

contraceptive pill across

contraceptive pill across the developed world begins to make it

the developed world begins to make it

the developed world begins to make it possible for us to think about sexual

possible for us to think about sexual

possible for us to think about sexual function much more in terms of

function much more in terms of

function much more in terms of recreation so we get a reproductive than

recreation so we get a reproductive than

recreation so we get a reproductive than a short-lived rectory a relational view
