Esme Louise James is the kinkiest historian you'll ever meet

History is a lot of things. Fascinating, confronting, sometimes shameful, often brutal, and also incredibly kinky.

Esme Louise James is a sex historian – her work explores the history of human sexuality – including hidden queer histories, plus kinks and fetishes throughout the ages.

In this chat with Antoinette Lattouf, Esme reveals her favourite historical kinky and her TMI moments whilst working with her Mum.
