'Sometimes we just want to get f**ked': what Gillian Anderson learned from hundreds of women's secret sexual fantasies
Briefly

Nancy Friday’s My Secret Garden, published in 1973, became a beacon for female sexual expression, challenging societal norms and inviting women to acknowledge their desires.
The anthology, which included confessions about taboo topics like incest and prostitution, proved transformative in its approach to women's sexuality, demonstrating the depth and diversity of female fantasies.
By inviting women's voices through her research for Sex Education, the actress honors Friday's legacy and reshapes the conversation around female desires, making it a global dialogue.
With My Secret Garden now a historical reference, it reminds us that women's sexual fantasies, though once stigmatized, are deserving of exploration and acceptance.
