Pleasure explores the ways in which women have been systematically disconnected from their bodies throughout history and the transformative power of reclaiming that connection through pleasure. From the cultural mythology of sex as something women give and men take, to the historical demonization of female pleasure through witch trials and religious doctrine. Pleasure traces the ways in which women's bodies have been turned into religious battlegrounds. Yet, it also reveals the radical, healing power of reclaiming pleasure as an act of resistance and joy.

Drawing on personal experiences, cultural analysis and interviews with experts, Pleasure unpacks the myths we've inherited - from the virginity ideal to the male-centric view of sex - and how they affect women's lives today. By weaving historical context with contemporary stories, it offers a radical yet hopeful roadmap for women to reconnect with their bodies, rewrite their sexual stories and, ultimately, cultivate more pleasure-filled lives.

Emma-Louise Boynton is a writer, broadcaster and the creator and host of the sell-out live event series and media platform, Sex Talks. Inspired by her own experience doing sex therapy, Sex Talks exists to engender more open and honest conversations around typically taboo topics: sex, gender and the future of intimacy. Emma previously worked as a producer for the BBC and Sky News here in London, and for Tina Brown's 'Women in The World Summit' in New York. She is the co-founder of female-focused creative production agency, Her Hustle.
