Welcome to Episode 412 of the Sexology Podcast! I’m thrilled to have Suzannah Weiss with us today as we delve into her powerful new book, Subjectified. In this episode, we explore the book’s central themes, focusing on empowering women to reclaim their sexuality and self-determination. Suzannah also shares her personal journey of healing from an eating disorder, a struggle intricately linked to societal pressures around sexualization.
Suzannah Weiss is a writer and sexologist based in Los Angeles. She is the author of Subjectified: Becoming a Sexual Subject, which describes her search for sexual empowerment and her vision for a world where women are subjects, not just objects, of desire. She has written over 8800 articles, which have appeared in publications such as The New York Times and The Washington Post.
As a sex educator certified by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists, Suzannah has taught courses and given talks on topics including consent, orgasms, childbirth, non-monogamy, and neurodiversity. She is regularly quoted as an expert in publications like Cosmopolitan and Men's Health as resident sexologist for Biird and also works as a sex/love coach, birth doula, and sexual assault counselor.
