Coucou everyone!
Let's talk about sex, babyyyy! This week, Catherine tells Kate all about sex, relationships, and beauty standards in Ancient Greece. While very freeing in some ways, there were also plenty of rules and caveats - especially when it came to women and the age of consent (are we surprised??). Then Kate tells Cat and the Isle of Lesbos and the infamous Poetess - Sappho. That's hot.
