Author and future editor of Cosmopolitan, Helen Gurley Brown is interviewed about her new book, Sex and the Single Girl. Strangely, she is talking from a bed. The book was a huge bestseller (and sparked a film of the same name). Gurley Brown addresses the issue of a single woman having a sex life – she's all for it! 

Helen Gurley Brown’s relationship with feminism was a complicated one. Although she advocated pre-marital sex, as editor of Cosmopolitan, she initially disagreed with the Women’s Lib movement, preferring to focus on how to be a happy individual rather than a liberated woman.
