Kristen Ghodsee
Kristen Ghodsee is an American ethnographer and professor of Russian and East European Studies whose work focuses on gender and post-communist societies. She gained attention for her book 'Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism,' in which she argues that women in socialist countries experienced greater sexual freedom and satisfaction compared to their counterparts in capitalist societies. Ghodsee's research challenges prevailing stereotypes about Eastern European women's experiences and contributes to a more nuanced understanding of gender dynamics during and after socialism.
