Episode 12: Sex Work Through History Part 2
Manage episode 340847532 series 3001698
Welcome, fans! After delays caused by a hard drive crash and COVID, we're back (at last!) with the second of the two-part look at sex work through history.
In this episode, we chat about the Winchester Geese, a group of sex workers managed by the Bishop of Winchester, and muse about several historical sex worker philanthropists who seemed a lot more in tune with Christian charity than most Christians of the day.
We also detour into the philosophies of St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas and chat about official state-sanctioned brothels in France. Check it out!
