In this episode of Modern Love, Anna Martin interviews Mireille Silcoff, the author of "Why Gen X Women Are Having the Best Sex." Mireille shares her personal journey of experiencing a sexual resurgence in her late 40s after divorce and recovering from a long-term illness. She reflects on her Gen X upbringing, the sexual landscape of the 90s, and how societal shifts led by younger generations have created a more open and accepting environment. Mireille and Anna discuss the empowerment that comes with age, self-knowledge, and the freedom to explore one's sexuality, culminating in Mireille's experience of having the best sex of her life. The conversation also touches on the cultural representation of middle-aged women and the impact of menopause on Mireille's evolving perspective on sex and love.
