Podcast appearances and mentions of Katherine Frank

Sorry for the late upload, we had technical difficulties but we will be back on schedule for future episodes. The wait was worth it as Chancellor Frank returns to the podcast after being one of our very first guests. The first time Frank was on the show, we spoke all about COVID as she had only started her new job 7 days prior to the shut down. Now unmasked and ready to go, Frank shares her thoughts on the growing physical expansions on campus, the largest donation the college has ever received, the success of their sports program and so much more.

For her doctoral dissertation, Dr. Katherine Frank worked as a dancer in several strip clubs and interviewed the regulars. As a student of anthropology, it was important for her to “do as the natives do” and really immerse herself in that environment to truly understand it. And what she learned is absolutely fascinating. For this episode of the Sex and Psychology Podcast, I sat down with Dr. Frank to give you an inside look at her research, what really happens inside a strip club, and what the people visiting these establishments are really looking for. In the first half of the program, we discuss her dissertation work and the book she published based on it, titled G-Strings and Sympathy: Strip Club Regulars and Male Sexual Desire. In the second half, we discuss her recent research on group sex, which she explored in the book Plays Well in Groups: A Journey Through the World of Group Sex. Topics we cover include: Who are the men who visit strip clubs? What are their backgrounds like, and why are they visiting these clubs in the first place? (Hint: It's about far more than sexual arousal!) How did working in these clubs change the way that Dr. Frank views the customers? How challenging is it to do a university-approved study that involves working inside a strip club? Is it really true that ovulating strippers get more tips than women on hormonal contraceptives? Why is group sex such a popular fantasy and how many people have ever done it in real life? How does consent work in an orgy? For people interested in group sex, what do they need to know when it comes to having safe and pleasurable experiences? To learn more about Dr. Frank and her work, visit her website and be sure to check out her books G-Strings and Sympathy and Plays Well in Groups. *** Want to learn more about Sex and Psychology?

Please enjoy again: G is for group sex.   Hi everyone!  Welcome to the A to Z of Sex.  I'm Dr Lori Beth and I am your host.  We are working our way through the erotic alphabet one letter at a time.  Just a reminder this podcast deals with adult content, so if you don't have total privacy, you might want to put on your headphones. Today the letter is G and G is for Group Sex. I get lots of questions about whether being polyamorous means that you have a lot of group sex.  In short, no.  You can have group sex as a one off fantasy event, as part of a non-monogamous relationship style (like swinging), or as part of a polyamorous relationship.   There are as many polyamorous folks who are not fond of kinky sex as there are folks who enjoy it. Group sex is defined as sex with any more than two people participating.  I include when people are watching as participants as observers always impact upon what they observe.   Enjoying group sexual activities requires a degree of self-confidence and sexual confidence.   If you have no confidence, you are likely to spend the entire time feeling self-conscious and that is not at all fun. Part of feeling confident when it comes to a group experience can be down to the atmosphere and planning that goes into the experience.  Some environments bring together people who know each other and others bring together strangers.  It takes a different type of confidence to manage an environment full of strangers than it does an environment full of friends and acquaintances. Dr Katherine Frank spent a year studying all different types of group sex.  She points out in her introduction that images of group sex can be found in Paleolithic cave art and that many societies through the ages have engaged in group sex. Group sex comes in a variety of flavours: Threesomes or menage a trois:  This looks like what it says – three people engage in sex with each other.  This can take the form of any mix of genders or sexual orientations.  Having a threesome with another woman is one of the most popular male fantasies.  Single bisexual women are often sought after by couples who want to engage in this type of groups sex and they are called unicorns (because they can be very hard to find).  Couples playing together is the next most common form of group sex.  This is usually done privately.  Couples meet online, through swinging sites and sometimes at swingers clubs.  As long as all members of the couple are excited by the idea, this can be one of the easiest group sex combinations for couples as there tends to be less jealousy because everyone is involved.  Wife swapping:  These parties became popular 1960's and 1970's and have had a resurgence since the 1990's.  It was popular to have the swaps be random so as to limit jealousy and this lead to key parties in which all the car keys were put in a bowl and each man (or woman) chose a key from the bowl and the owner of the key was his partner for the evening. Swinging:  Not all swingers engage in group sex.  At many swinger's clubs and parties, you will see a variety of group activities.  Many people enjoy watching at swinger's clubs and parties.      Dogging:  This is a largely British practice where people meet in large carparks and have sex in cars whilst others watch.  Sometimes spots are simply known as dogging spots – other times groups are arranged via email with some participating and others watching.  Orgies are often seen to be larger groups having sex together or next to each other.   Bathhouses catered primarily to gay men and in the pre-AIDS days, were often anonymous sex.  These days anonymous sex still happens but more people are aware of the risks they are taking and insist on condoms and other barrier methods of protection when engaging in group and/or anonymous sex. Japan has the record for the largest orgy – 250 couples having sex together. Orgies are often seen to be more decadent and sometimes negative than group sex. 

Jarod Bormann (@jbormann3) and Brea Baxter (@breabaxter) discuss their visit and interviews with Mazzuchelli Catholic Middle School in Dubuque, IA. The school is initiating the SUMMIT Learning program for Personalized Learning.

We know, you use your phones everywhere. At work. When you're with your kids. Underneath the table. In the bathroom (admit it – and special thanks to listener Andrew Conkling for the warning on that one).  GraceAnn Bennett, the advertising executive turned tech entrepreneur behind a new app called PlsPlsMe, wants to give you an excuse to whip it out in the last sacred frontier: Bed. Well, sort of.  As a 20-something virgin Mormon newlywed, Bennett expected her new husband to just get it.  "I thought he was supposed to figure it out. Figure out sex... figure out how to unlock me in some kind of way without me giving any instructions. Because instructions, to me, were a turn off. I thought, 'OK, well, if I tell him then it kind of kills it.' Just like someone telling you, 'Buy me this!' and then wrapping it up for Christmas. Right? It's like, OK, this is not, this isn't sexy, this isn't fun. This isn't how it's supposed to work." Nineteen years of marriage later, those primal instincts still hadn't kicked in. The couple ultimately got divorced – and, unable to shake the feeling that this just wasn't how sex was supposed to work, Bennett quit her job in advertising to focus on fixing sex lives. She asked the Kinsey Institute to help her answer the question: Is anyone out there really having good sex? If so, what does it take? The results weren't really that surprising: One out of three respondents in the 2,000 person sample said they wished it was easier for them to talk with partners about their sexual desires. For the past few months, the Note to Self team has been collaborating with Kaitlin Prest, host of The Heart – an audio art project and podcast about intimacy and humanity. Prest got two couples to test the app and the premise: can technology disrupt your sex life? In a good way? Listen above for some taboo, sometimes scary, and absolutely intimate stuff. In this episode: Kaitlin Prest, host of The Heart (with cameos from producer Mitra Kaboli) GraceAnn Bennett, founder of PlsPlsMe Katherine Frank, cultural anthropologist and sex researcher PlsPlsMe is available as of this week on iTunes.

Dr. Katherine Frank‘s book, Plays Well in Groups: A Journey Through the World of Group Sex (Rowman and Littlefield, 2013), is a fascinating look at the taboo of group sex. Her robust research spans historical references to modern day accounts throughout cultures around the world. Dr. Frank used surveys, interviews, and ethnographic research to uncover why people participate in group sex, and what it means to them. Her work also looks at group sex in a violent setting, such as gang rape, and examines the social, political and power structures involved. Her work on group sex and the complex reaction to it, allow a behind the scenes look at a world that is often portrayed differently than it is actually experienced. Plays Well In Groups provides social, anthropological and historical detail about a world that is both feared and fantasized about. Frank’s work is bold and scary, but always engaging. It is an intriguing journey into the complexity of sex and the meaning that it holds for culture and society. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
