Matthew Sweet hears from Naomi Wolf about ways in which the state interfered in the private lives of its citizens in the 19th century, resulting in a codification of homosexuality with long-reaching consequences. They're joined by literary scholar Sarah Parker who tells the story of Michael Field, the pseudonym of two female poets and dramatists who sought literary fame in the late 19th century, and by philosopher Luis de Miranda who explains why neon is good to think with as a metaphor for the present and as a block on creative thinking.
Full interview from Radio 3's most recent 'Arts & Ideas'. Full context of the excerpt starts at 19:00, excerpt itself starts at 24:30.

However, there's a problem:

Listen to Naomi Wolf realize on live radio that the historical thesis of the book she's there to promote is based on her misunderstanding a legal term.
Relevant audio (TL;DL) excerpt here:

Additionally, the specific example talked about was not exactly "the Criminalisation of Love"... it was a pedophile arrested for molesting a 6 year-old. :story:

It wasn't quite the epic ownage I was expecting, but embarrassing nonetheless. I'd still grab that 80's hair and facefuck her tho
It was quite a British bit of ownage, which is nice to see now and then. "I do believe you've made an error in your research" is just English-English for "Look at what I found after two minutes of Googling, you fucking moron".

She ceased to be relevant a long time ago. Just a one-trick pony. Wouldn't even waste my time reading or listening to anything she has to say.

Jewish Feminist BTFO on BBC Radio After Writing a Book That Makes Fake Claims About Faggot Executions!

The relatively well-known American Jew feminist Naomi Wolf has written a book about the terrible persecution of faggots throughout history, where she chronicles the true fact that people were literally executed for ramming their cocks up other men’s assholes, which is an act of love.

However, the Jew ran into a major anal roadblock when she appeared on BBC radio with host Matthew Sweet, who gently explained to her that much of her book is complete and total bullshit – we might even say that Wolf is suffering from literary incontinence.

Sweet brings up a passage in Wolf’s book “Outrages” wherein she claims that one Thomas Silver was executed by the British for an act of love. In fact, the term used in the British court records of the Old Bailey is “death recorded,” which, as Sweet calmly explains to the stupid old Jew, does not mean “execution.” It is a legal category that was created in 1893 that allowed judges to forego giving the death penalty to a criminal.

He also notes that the homosexual Silver was charged with forcibly jamming his penis up the anus of a six-year-old boy, which is something that is hard for even a modern Jew to portray as an “act of love.”

Apparently, Wolf includes an entire list of cases that say “death recorded” in her book – and none of them were executions!

Since this interview, others have gone through and confirmed that the interviewer was right, these were not executions. She was claiming that the official “last execution for homosexuality in Britain” in 1835 was not really the real last execution for homosexuality in Britain – and in fact, it actually was! This bitch was claiming people were getting executed for assfucking in like, the 1940s – because she didn’t bother to look up the terminology!

There is even a Wikipedia page on the term “Death Recorded”!

And just in case, the audio exterpt is also uploaded on Youtube, however how long it'll stay on Youtube is hard to say.

By the look of that photo, several animals died making her wig. I bet she is bald from all the drugs she takes.
As it is, she is just another one of these authors who waste paper saying nothing important about anything in particular and some how create a cult following among the cliteratti. It is utterly bewildering how that shit gets published.
