“There IS research now coming out. There ARE things being designed specifically BY vulva-owners FOR vulva-owners so that we can understand our experience. Because for so so long (from my perspective anyway) I always had felt like it wasn't understood or if I had an opinion or if I had something to share about what I was feeling or what I wanted, it wasn’t represented. I felt self-conscious sharing because I’m like, am I supposed to have my own desires? Am I supposed to be able to say that I like this, or don’t like this?”

TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:

  • Shauna Burns-Thomson (Sex Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor) shares her story to finding The Goddess Movement through our pole program
  • What sex therapy is, who it’s for and why it’s important for our health as both individuals and partners
  • Aryn recalls a past Luven show, ‘The S Word’ as the controversial, eye-opening production that caused friction AND open dialogue within the Fraser Valley
  • The term ‘spectatoring’ as a state of cerebral processing, rather than being present in the sexual experience through our senses
  • All about masturbation, toys and self-pleasure: releasing the shame and toxic expectations instilled in us by society and other outside influences
  • How past sexual trauma effects current relating: how it shows up, creating space to increase safety, and communicating personal needs
  • Stories and tips for educating kids on anatomy, sexual safety and quality communication
  • Keeping the spark alive in both long-term relationships and solo adventures
