Famous for taking her readers to undiscovered places, Susie Bright has changed the rules for writing about sex. Erotica is no longer under-the-covers reading; it's thrilling literature that showcases the best writing around.

Today, Susie looks at sex workers who inject drugs. That's two taboos rolled into one! Susie reads an article from a blog that interviewed both men and women escorts about their drug use. This very frank and honest discussion will debunk some stereotypical thinking - for example that it's having to engage in sex for a living that turns people into addicts. They say no. They don't mind the sex work; it's just that they like drugs. This in-depth article covers brothels, self-medication, Johns who pay with drugs instead of cash, alcohol abuse, and sex workers' rights.

Susie starts off today's show with an article from the New York Times. It seems more women are looking for an over-the-counter libido fix. Sales of all kinds of gels, oils, and vibrators have become mainstream. A walk down any pharmacy aisle in the "intimate lifestyle" section (often right by the Band-Aids) reveals extraordinary choices for starting up women's mojos again. Susie says okay, not bad, but why buy all the hype? Vegetable oil and good old fashioned foreplay can be a less expensive way to find the sweet spot again.

This beautifully produced book contains the landmark work of the most influential lesbian photographers in the world, including Morgan Gwenwald, Della Grace, Diana Blok, Tee Corrine, Jill Posener, and Honey Lee Cottrell.
