Words are the sex I'm willing to opt back into
.......................................................................................................................................
I was in a group of people who wanted to re-educate themselves and other people about sex. It was called Bedfellows. We're on a break right now but we used to do a research group where we'd find stuff on the internet about sex - articles, zines, blog posts, videos, podcasts - and talk about it.
I'd opted out of having sex with other people in my early twenties and I found this process of getting together to talk about sex provided me with some of the things I'd wanted from sex - intimacy, learning and excitement.
The words Words are the sex I'm willing to opt back into have appeared in different ways since they dropped into my head one research meeting. This paper marbled and water coloured iteration is doing it for me right now in April 2019.
