Lynn Enright

My guest this week is the remarkable Lynn Enright, whose book Vagina: A Re-education is, well, exactly that. Taking in everything from biological myths, to the penis-centric bias of modern sex education, to reproductive rights, fertility, FGM, the orgasm gap, sexual health, periods and the period industry, it is utterly brilliant and essential reading whether you are in possession of a vagina or not. Lynn is also a successful journalist who was a vocal campaigner in Ireland’s Repeal the Eighth movement. I found our chat - which took in all of the above, as well as Lynn’s childhood in Ireland, her own experience of abortion and more - absolutely fascinating.
