The Cosmo Report on Sex After 60 with Dr. Rachel Zar
Season 2, Episode 112, Jan 25, 01:30 AM
In the 1960s, under the leadership of Helen Gurley Brown, Cosmo morphed from a “proper ladies' magazine” to a much racier version that was thought of as being a sex manual disguised as a woman’s magazine. The target audience was the young working woman. Women in their 60s were not reading it and were certainly not buying subscriptions for their daughters or granddaughters.
And here we are, Cosmo has just published a groundbreaking, article titled Sex after 60 based on research done in collaboration with the renowned Kinsey Institute of Sexual Research. The Kinsey research team, which I was part of, provided the questions which were ultimately answered by over 3000 women, and then analyzed the data.
In this episode, I have a conversation with sex therapist Dr. Rachel Zar, who was quoted extensively in the article, and who is, as most of you know by now, my daughter.
This episode is based on an article that was published in the January issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine.
