Episode #2 | Sex in Irish Mythology

By Shawna Scott Last updated Jul 3, 2018

In episode 2 I speak to comedian and tour guide, Teresa Coyne, about all the strange sex, lurid affairs, and questionable marriages in Irish mythology. We also focus on some of her favourite legendary women and the roles they played, not just as wives to be won or stolen, but as powerful, freethinking badasses!

Since founding Sex Siopa in 2012, Shawna has traveled around Ireland giving talks about everything from the sex toy industry, to modern feminism, to the her sold out show at Kilkenomics "The Economics of Sex." She has been featured on RTE, in a number of national newspapers & magazines, and has been a guest on Newstalk and TodayFM. Shawna is delighted to have found a home in HeadStuff where she can focus her sights on the past, and discover how sexual politics have evolved and how we got to where we are today.
