Every parent's pride and joy over having a baby also ushers in a whole new dynamic in the bedroom. When do we have sex? How do we have any privacy? And as the kids get older, what sexual sensibilities will we impart to my kids? Susie recently held a workshop for moms and dads to talk about how they are raising their kids versus how their parents raised them. They looked at how religion, boundaries, and freaking out all play into family dis/function.

With the Academy Awards just around the corner, Susie looks at what has prompted some heated debates over the sex scenes in one of the nominated movies: Black Swan. Watching Natalie Portman masturbate and orgasm was hot to watch, but for some women, it caused a stir about the best way to get off. Susie says as long as you come, why criticize the method?

Susie is off this week but wants you to enjoy the second part of a 2007 interview with feminist author Katha Pollitt. Pollitt's been writing about feminism for decades and is perhaps best known for her Nation magazine column "Subject to Debate". Susie and Katha talk about abortion and how abortion clinics are full of judgmental women. Why do women need to feel so bad when abortion is legal?

A man posts a personal sex ad on Craigslist. No problem, right? Except this guy is a teacher, and it seems his private life is not private. After a complaint to the police from an anonymous caller, our teacher removed the ad. But it didn't end there; he was fired. Susie finds the decision of the court over this case to be so misguided, she's breathing fire. She looks at what they called "vulgar" and "inappropriate" and calls the firing a witch hunt by repressed men who are holier then thou.

Susie has been busy traveling around the country on her new book tour. Her memoir Big Sex, Little Death is out in the stores, and today Susie offers some stories from the road. Beginning in Detroit, she recounts some shocking indiscretions at her first stop. Think designer dresses and Opium! Then, from Michigan to New York City, baby, where sex celebrities and no sign of a recession greeted her. Oh, NYC can be so glamorous and kinky!

New York Times op-ed columnist Ross Douthat is in big trouble with Susie! In his recent piece called "Why Monogamy Matters", he said that women with minimal or virginal sexual experience are the happiest women in the land. Oh! Oh! Watch out, because here comes Susie's response. She's really steamed, because the Times didn't reveal the writer's religious agenda and the story wasn't fact-checked.

It's Part 2 of our annual look at the top sex stories of 2010. This week we continue to look at the headlines that made a sexual splash....

Happy New Year! Susie starts off today's show with a list of her personal New Year's resolutions. And, surprise, her list is all about sex. Susie has talked about the male penis enlarger and how that sounds pretty interesting; now she's recently found out about a device for women: a clitoral pump enlarger. Research is essential, and Susie will tell us all about her findings. Then, in our ongoing "Tell Me Your Sex Story" segment, Susie herself decides it's her turn to get into the sexual confession booth.

Susie is off this week and wants you to enjoy a show from 2006.... Susie loves answering sex questions so much that she's grabbed a letter of the Dear Abby type to answer. A husband asks how many men it's okay for his wife to have slept with before they married, and Susie is just dying to give the honest response to the question of how much cock is too much. Then, Susie is lusting after a new pair of special street-walking platforms that have cameras, speakers, and even GPS locators in the heels.

Back in the news again is Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. And once more he's being scrutinized for his sexual habits. Surprisingly, Susie finds one thing she and Thomas have in common: their love of porn! This is a "hobby" that plenty of people enjoy, so what's the problem if a bigwig justice is also a collector of porn? Nothing wrong there, says Susie, but she finds his alleged sexual bullying, harassment of women, and sexual tyranny a real problem.

As Susie reaches for a tissue, she has an important question for you: Sex and the flu bug - do orgasms help you get better, faster? Is getting down and working up a sexy sweat good for the sinuses, or is rest really what you need? It's flu season, and inquiring groins want to know. Susie says, "Why not grab a cup of tea and sit back while we think about sex as a medicinal aid?"

Today's show starts off with a sexual thumbs up nod to Canada. The Canadian courts now say whores have a right to run a lawful business. While prostitution in Ontario has been technically legal, it's never meant that sex workers were protected. Now that's changed, and prostitutes can call the police and report a bad client. This oldest profession is a dangerous one, and this new ruling lessens the risk of violence from disgruntled Johns. This is the biggest sex story of the year!

Those crazy American evangelicals are at it again. Always trying to tell everybody else what to do, they've now decided to save Chinese teenagers from becoming sinners. Yes, it's true, the abstinence program heads to Bejing! Well, Susie has a few words to say about all this. It seems that the group Focus on the Family is behind attempts to convert the entire planet to saying "just say no" to sex before wedlock.

In our "Tell me your Sex Story" segment, Susie again asking a willing listener those nosy, personal questions. This week "Juliette" gets into the sexual confession booth and talks about her strict Catholic upbringing and how that affected her when she lost her virginity. She and Susie discuss masturbation and the church, working in the fitness industry, and who gives the best head - men or women?

Susie brings you today's show from London. And while the English may have a reputation for being well-mannered and stiff-lipped, Susie has found some very open-minded and racy Brits to talk to. First up is an interview with Dr. Petra Boynton, one of Britain's top sex educators. Petra and Susie have a lot in common, and their discussion starts out with looking at the double-standard when it comes to women watching porn.

Susie presents two very different attitudes about sexual mores in today's show. On one side, we're too bored to have anything to do with sex, and on the other, we can't get enough - never say no and have no regrets. Starting off, Susie reads from a recent Op-Ed article in the New York Times from guest contributor Camille Paglia. The reason middle-class Americans aren't having sex, says Paglia, is because Main Street USA has become frigid, androgynous, and sanitized.

Susie has had a crush on the infamous Sarah Palin from the moment the then Alaskan Governor burst into the spotlight. Today's show features a satirical story Susie wrote about her big sex date with Caribou Barbie.

Today, in "Tell Me Your Sex Story", our ongoing series of listener interviews, Susie speaks with "Sam", an aerospace engineer. They talk about having sex in some surprising places…he's even done it while flying an airplane.

Today, Susie brings you the first of a two-part interview with author Jillian Lauren, whose new book Some Girls: My Life in a Harem is taking the media by storm. Who knew that the family of the sultan of Brunei still hosted exotic 40-woman households and lived the lifestyle of princes right out of Arabian Nights?

Susie has found a questionnaire that you won't want to miss: the National Casual Sex Survey. Here's a chance to see just how many Americans have had what's commonly known as a one night stand. The survey is specific to sex that intentionally takes place without any kind of commitment. Susie says answering these questions will be fun and revealing.
