Embracing Death

Death: everyone does it. Sex: it sells. But can we sell you on the concept of sexy death? Have a drink with us and Dick, podcast host and sex/kink educator, as we talk about death fetishism and his personal history with it. We talk about the allure of finality, safety concerns, and misconceptions about this too taboo subject.

Books and studies referenced in this episode were:

• Lisa Downing's "On The Limits of Sexual Ethics"
• John Money's* work on erotophonophilia & autassassinophilia
• and Caitlin Doughty's work in the Death Positive movement

Check out Dick's other work hosting Off The Cuffs (@OCPKink) and Being There (@BeingTherePod), and reach out to him on twitter or via email!

*NOTE Money did, absolutely, have a generally sordid contribution to the field of gender and sexuality studies, but he was one of the first to give serious platform to much of the field
