In this episode, Hannah is joined by Leeza Mangaldas, who is one of India’s foremost digital content creators focused on discourse around sex, sexuality, sexual health, pleasure, and the body. Leeza discusses her own non-existent experience of sex education growing up in India but how having a family who were open about sex and bodies helped her feel safe to talk about it, as well as the stigma that still surrounds women’s sexuality and bodily autonomy in India and how she is using her platform to talk about sexual pleasure. She and Hannah talk about 100 Stories of Pleasure, a platform Leeza created to celebrate the stories of women and queer people’s pleasure, and the importance of sharing examples of joy instead of only narratives about shame and fear. Finally, Leeza speaks about her choice to be child free, navigating the pressure of Indian culture to become a wife and mother, and why she wants to hear more nuanced presentations of motherhood, rather than just always putting it on a pedestal.
