E14: Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld - German Sexologist

Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld was a German sexologist in the early 20th century. He was called the “Einstein of Sex” and his research and advocacy into sexual freedom for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities was beyond revolutionary. In this episode we explore Hirschfeld’s attempt to combat homophobia, meticulously research all forms of queer identity and help people have better, safer sex. Then we’ll explore the Nazi attempts to tear it all down.
