I am against sex-negativity ????! “Is It Possible to Be ‘Sex Negative’? A sex negative perspective stems from the belief that sex is inherently bad, dangerous, or shameful and should be limited to those who are heterosexual, married, or trying to have children. Individuals with a sex negative attitude fail to recognize the joy, connection, intimacy, and exploration that sex can bring, disregarding the fact that human beings are inherently sexual beings. Suwinyattichaiporn says a lot of people are sex negative, but it’s usually not through any fault of their own. It’s likely these individuals have internalized oppressive societal and cultural messaging that sex should be shrouded in wrongness. Feeling connected to your sexuality4 is part of well-being. If you feel your expression of sexual identity or sexual behavior is shameful, it can cause a cascade of emotional dysregulation, suppression, humiliation, anxiety, and overall poor mental health. This is a result of sex negativity. Examples of sex negativity5 include, but are not limited to: Feelings of shame and guilt around sexual thoughts, emotions, practices Unhealthy relationship to sex, body image, and porn Slut-shaming someone for having consensual, safe sex with one or multiple partners Seeing masturbation or ethical porn as something dirty and sinful Viewing heterosexuality as the only acceptable norm and the LGBTQA+ community as abnormal Sharing derogatory slurs, remarks, and stereotypes about queer people (Seeing something feminine and saying, “That’s so gay”) Advocation for the criminalization of sex workers and not seeing them as people, but as individuals beneath society Little to no tolerance for people to express their gender and sexual identities such as the way they dress or pronoun usage Having a shaming and judgmental reaction to someone who was sexually assaulted (“They were asking for it” or “What did they expect going out that late in that outfit?”)” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support
