I’m fucking tired of the world telling me I can’t have pleasure.
That I can’t eat all my meals naked, moaning as flavors enter my mouth.
That I can’t go without a bra in public.
That I can’t dance frequently and as badly as I want.
The world says pleasure with ourselves should be hidden and shameful.
The world says it’s dangerous for us to be liberated.
It’s dangerous for us to be in control of our bodies and our confidence and our pleasure.
It’s dangerous for us to express our emotions with abandon.
The world says: “Slut.” “Nasty.” “Bitch.” “Whore.” “Crazy.” “There is something wrong with you.”
I talked to a woman the other day who is afraid to let her hips sway when she walks down the street.
No more of this.
You do not deserve to be insecure in your body.
You do not deserve to be worried about what other people think.
You do not deserve to have a unfulfilling sex life.
You do not deserve to feel numb and at odds with your body.
Last night I spent hours cooking dinner naked, dancing wildly by myself…. and I don’t even own a bra anymore.
It is my dream to see people walk around the world fully embodied, confident, and radiant with the pleasure of being alive.
That is possible for you.
