Summary
[Contains explicit content] From 2008: Have you heard about the Christian evangelicals' "soulgasm"? It's a God-given orgasm you can have if you play by all the religious right's rules. Doesn't sex that is sanctioned by the almighty sound too good to be true? Today's show features an interview with Dagmar Herzog, author of Sex in Crisis: The New Sexual Revolution and the Future of American Politics. Susie and Dagmar discuss how right-wing Christians are using pornographic images to sell their ideas - and the strange racy marriage manuals that encourage doggie style as long as the mates pray beforehand. Then, from the mailbag, we hear a question from an older man who asks, "Is there a point where you just throw in the towel regarding sex?"
