Introduction

In this week’s edition of the Quillette podcast, I talk to writer, journalist and cultural commentator Phoebe Maltz Bovy. Phoebe is the co-host of two podcasts: the Canadian Jewish News podcast Bonjour Chai, with Rabbi Avi Finegold, and Feminine Chaos, with Kat Rosenfield. She is the author of The Perils of “Privilege”: Why Injustice Can’t Be Solved by Accusing Others of Advantage (2017). Today, we’ll be discussing her new book, The Last Straight Woman: On Desiring Men, forthcoming on 19 May.
