This week we're talking about something intimate… and sometimes taboo: masturbation.From self-love, to disordered behaviour and back again, we explore how our perceptions of masturbation have changed over the course of history and why it's still linked to shame and confusion for some.Also, why do humans (and other animals) masturbate in the first place?Just a heads up, if the topic didn't give it away, this episode may not be suitable for little ones.You can catch up on more episodes of the All in the Mind podcast with journalist and presenter Sana Qadar, exploring the psychology of topics like stress, memory, communication and relationships on ABC Listen or wherever you get your podcasts.Guests:Esme Louise JamesPhD candidate, University of MelbourneContent creator and author of Kinky HistoryDr Vijayasarathi RamanathanClinical sexologistSenior Lecturer of Sexual Health (Sexology) at Westmead Clinical School, University of SydneyDr Ann JonesHost, What the Duck?!Dr Matilda BrindleEvolutionary biologistUniversity of OxfordCredits:<ul><li>Presenter/producer: Sana Qadar</li><li>Senior producer: James Bullen</li><li>Producer: Rose Kerr</li><li>Sound engineer: Beth Stewart</li></ul>More information:<a href="https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/what-the-duck/sex-is-weird/104213450">Sex is Weird | What the Duck?!</a>To find the transcript for this episode, head to its <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/allinthemind/psychology-of-masturbation/104295800">original webpage</a>.
