Seema Anand on Why Women’s Pleasure Matters | Bani Anand | AfterHours with All About Eve

In this thought-provoking episode of AfterHours with All About Eve, hosted by Bani Anand, mythologist, storyteller and renowned author Seema Anand challenges the way society has conditioned us—particularly women—to think about intimacy and pleasure. For generations, women have been taught to view sex solely through the lenses of conception, duty, or as an obligatory part of a relationship, rather than as something deeply personal, instinctive, and fulfilling. Seema Anand sheds light on how these narratives were deliberately imposed, leading to centuries of suppressed instincts and misplaced guilt around desire. Drawing on the ancient wisdom of Vātsyāyana and the Kama Sutra, she explains how, contrary to modern assumptions, even two thousand years ago it was recognised that women’s pleasure was fundamental to sustaining intimacy and healthy relationships. In fact, Vātsyāyana argued that men must be taught about pleasure, while women understood it instinctively—a truth that resonates powerfully today. Seema insists on the urgent need to “change the story”—to rewrite the way we think and speak about intimacy. She highlights that a relationship cannot thrive if a woman’s pleasure is absent or disregarded, and reminds us that genuine connection requires time, care and mutual respect: “If it takes her six hours, that’s it, you stay there for six hours.” This conversation is not about titillation—it is about reclaiming pleasure as a birthright, dismantling harmful conditioning, and reframing intimacy as something empowering, respectful, and equal. If you’ve ever questioned why pleasure remains such a taboo, or if you’re looking to understand intimacy in a healthier, more balanced way, this episode will leave you with profound insights and a renewed perspective.
