Sex Therapy 101 with Cami Hurst

Including Asexuality in the Conversation with Aubri Lancaster


Listen Later

Aubri Lancaster shares her expertise on asexuality and consent, introducing  frameworks like "favor vs. chore" and the spectrum from sex-favorable to sex-repulsed that apply to everyone regardless of orientation. She challenges our cultural understanding of intimacy and desire, offering practical tools for healthier relationships.

• Understanding consenting to unwanted sex - acknowledging when sex is consensual yet still unwanted
• Favor vs. chore framework - distinguishing between freely given acts and obligatory ones with consequences
• Consent tools including negotiation, safe words, and aftercare should be used in all sexual contexts, not just kink
• The spectrum from sex-favorable to sex-repulsed exists for everyone in different contexts
• Compulsory sexuality creates pressure that impacts everyone, especially asexual individuals
• Unbraiding different forms of intimacy (emotional, intellectual, sensual) creates more options
• Questioning the pathologization of low desire through diagnoses like HSDD
• Creating relationships where "a no is as welcome as a yes"
