It's My Pleasure

Ep. 73: The Patriarchy and Your Sex Life


Listen Later

Let’s discuss the patriarchy and how it impacts our ability to experience pleasure in our bodies, starting from a young age, and sticking with us throughout our entire lives. The reason I’m talking about the patriarchy on a sex podcast is that the way we are socialized as women is going to greatly impact the way that we are able to show up in our bodies and experience sex and pleasure. When we have awareness about the types of messages we receive, we can see how our brain is naturally going to react when it comes to sex, pleasure, and our body image. Then, once we have awareness about it, we can begin to change and rewire it, so that we are more tuned in to experience pleasure.

In this episode, I share some of the patriarchal messaging we receive, how to work through those beliefs, and share some of the transformations that women in my group coaching program are experiencing right now. 

If you want to take this work deeper, I am currently accepting applications for the next cohort of my group program. Better Sex in 90 Days, which is starting soon. To learn more and to apply to be a part, go to: https://daniellesavory.com/group/

Topics in this episode
  • The image of the good girl, and it’s affect on our sexuality
  • Differences in how sex is presented to men versus women
  • The fear of presenting ourselves as though we are “asking for it”
  • The messaging that keeps us smaller
  • What female pleasure actually looks like
  • Turning off the turn-offs
  • Opening ourselves up to the practice of receiving

As always it’s been my absolute pleasure to share this with you. I hope this has helped you really start to peel apart all of the layers of what you’ve learned so that you can fully step into yourself in a sexually expressed and loving way. It’s such a beautiful journey and I’m excited for you to be on it.
