An interesting 5 part series that played this week on Radio 4
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b065k5wz/episodes/guide
The series looks at how women and sex have been portrayed in fiction over the centuries. From the Bible, through Shakespeare and fairy tales and right up to date with Twilight and 50 Shades.
You might not agree with the conclusions that are drawn (or not drawn) but it certainly invites discussion.
Apologies in advance if the player doesn't work outside the UK
