Films
Sexology (2016)- film
This film (if you can get past the cheesiness of it and the two presenters) is a really insightful, tender exporation of female sexuality. It follows two american women and their search to reconnect with their sex drives. Its an hour and a half- watch it alone or with the girls, some popcorn, a pinch of salt, and enjoy. For those of you who are sneaky enough to want a pirate copy, maybe you could check this page out just incase you might find a copy hiding around in there. Not that I’m condoning video piracy or anything…..
TV

This series is narrated by Janelle Monae- whats not to love? Although not strictly about desire it gives an interesting account of sexuality generally and is well worth a watch!
