He is the founder of the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) and author of Relationality: How Moving from Transactional to Transformational Relationships Can Reshape Our Lonely World.Together, they explore how redefining our bonds can positively impact mental health, creativity, and systemic change. He also introduces five key indicators—connection, care, creativity, collective action, and generative conflict—that help us gauge the power of our relationships.We also want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Wasan community, especially Meg Busse and Rachel Sinha, the facilitators of the “Making the Case for Relationality” huddle, for making this connection possible.Listen now and discover how co-creation can guide us toward a more human and sustainable future!

Synopsis for sections covered by CWs: Delphi and Toz come across a group of warforged (who prefer the term forgeborn) protesting for equal rights outside the town hall. They were made by wizards at the university (whom they don't see as parents) and although they have sentience, are not seen as fully 'alive' by some in power. Toz speaks to the media rep Lunaris, who gives her a pamphlet about their movement. They confirm that Hugo Munerin has been involved. Later, when the party reunite, Toz and Morgan explain the forgeborn's plight to Raina and Delphi, and Morgan reads the pamphlet, noting that the movement has become more developed since she was last here.

It's Valentine's Day! A day full of overpriced chocolates, high expectations, and focus on how much sex you're going to have. So what about those who have no interest in it? 'Ace' is an umbrella term used to describe people who experience little, fluctuating, or no sexual attraction. There are also aromantic people - who experience little to no romantic attraction. Asexuality is often widely misunderstood, including within the LGBTQ+ community. Asexual people are also not recognised in legislation, such as under the UK Equality Act, and Stonewall found asexual people may be at a higher risk of conversion therapy than gay, lesbian and bi individuals. But when asexual activists take to the media to raise these issues, they are met with a chorus of criticism, ignorance, and insults: they're vying for victimhood, or they're offered the enlightening advice to simply "get laid". Here to help us understand why exactly the media are so angry is Yasmin Benoit, model, academic and activist.

 Because of Physical issues and Psychology issues.1.) Low libido.When having a menopausal problem,- the females have a lack of sex hormones or a dry vagina. In these cases, they have pain when they have sex… Or if the body is too fat. 2.) Difficulty being aroused. When women are:stressed out, tired, depressed, too many problems,bad lover,   or have anxiety. -the majority of women don't like under these circumstances to have sex with men.3.) Aversion to sex and/or of men.If a girl is growing up in a family that abuse sex then the girl will have a bad consciousness if it will enjoy sex.On average every 10th girl is sexually abused through their family… In both cases, the sexually abused woman needs a therapy to get rid of all these aversions of sex and traumas. Otherwise, intimacy or a deep connection to her boyfriend or spouse will be a problem.4.) Asexuality. Women who have no or less sex drive… That is possible.5.) Inability to reach orgasm.Up to 10-20% of women never achieve an orgasm.  In all cases exist some remedies… First, check a female doctor. A.) For a low testosterone level, menopause and aging take daily:1.) Maca powder from a high altitude mountain (Andean) (otherwise it will not work!!!).  Maca powder can be very powerful to overcome menopause. Or try Ashwagandha (can't be used during pregnancy). 2.) Ginseng3.) Fo-Ti (He Shou Wu, Chinese Cornbind)4.) Gingko Biloba5.) Goji Berries (Wolf Berries)6.) Astragalar7.) Lingzhi Mushrooms8.) Gotu Kola9.) Jiao Gu Lan The first 5 herbs are increasing your testosterone and other sexual hormones… At least they make your body strong. The last 4 herbs are for busting your immune system and heart…B.) Zesta (a botanical oil to apply to the genitals) to enhance the climax of women.C.) INTONE ™ and Intensity™  are approved electrical stimulating devices that can help to get an orgasm and help to treat the urinary leakage in women. D.) Vaginal estrogen – Available as a cream, a tablet or a vaginal ring, and considered the best treatment for genital arousal problems and pain from vulvovaginal atrophy that occurs in many postmenopausal women.E.) Off-Label use of Vaginal DHEA 1 percent suppository – An adrenal precursor that women with vaginal atrophy/thinning/decreased sensation can use as an alternative to vaginal estrogen.F.) Osphena – The first, non-estrogen oral therapy for moderate to severe painful sexual activity due to vulvovaginal atrophy.G.) Flibanserin (Addyi®) – This drug was recently approved by the FDA to restore female sexual desire in women before menopause. It must be taken orally every day, and it may have side effects, such as severe low blood pressure and fainting.My Video: Why can't women sleep with men? https://youtu.be/zeT3eA_f_T0My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/Why-can't-women-sleep-with-men.mp3

Coming up on this episode, we're venturing into the world of asexuality, aromanticism, and demisexuality with guest, creator, educator and author, Cody Daigle-Orians! Please join us as we explore what each of these identities mean, how to figure out where you fit on the spectrum, and practical dating and flirting strategies! We also discuss the important topic of when and how to share this information with potential partners and talk about whether these identities can be fluid over time. We also speak to the stigma and the feeling of not fitting in that many people with these identities experience!  Finally, we provide valuable insights on how to communicate your needs and boundaries when dating, ensuring you can form meaningful connections while staying true to yourself. We venture in and out of grounding these identities in a "coming out" process, but you do not need to identify as queer to be ace, aro, or demi!

Does it ever feel like you are trying to fit the proverbial square peg into the round hole of sexuality? Are you “going along” with your partner's wishes and desires even when you aren't feeling arousal? Has sex always been something that just doesn't light you up? Do you enjoy solo sex but partnered sex isn't a turn-on? Many people are unaware of the the asexuality spectrum and find relief and Aha! with new information on how this may look in relationships. Erica Leroye sits at the feet of Aubri Lancaster, Certified ASSECT Sexuality Educator and founder of Acesexeducation. Aubri has exceptional expertise teaching laypeople and professionals about ACE awareness in ways that are compassionate and transformational. Together they discuss: What do we mean by asexuality and how does it differ from low libido? What would be some common signs/signals that might help a person or a partner get to the “aha! This might be me/you/us!”? What has changed culturally/societally so that this is now more understood as a truth and not something that has to be “overcome”? What support is out there for people to learn and discover more? Beyond “Sex”-Expanding what intimacy and connection can look like and feel like for ACE people and partners They also share some juicy, on the spot erotica imaginations for people who aren't seeing themselves represented in traditional erotica to imagine into.

Communication is key in understanding and navigating asexuality in relationships. Desire discrepancy can lead to misunderstandings in couples. Solo sexuality is a legitimate expression of sexual identity. Embodied language in erotica can enhance sexual experiences. Non-sexual intimacy is equally important in relationships. Asexuality does not equate to a lack of desire for connection. Resources are available for those exploring their asexual identity. It's important to decenter sex in relationships and focus on other forms of intimacy. Understanding one's own needs and desires is crucial for healthy relationships.

Join us as we welcome Aubri Lancaster, an AASECT certified sexuality educator, to explore the nuanced and often misunderstood realms of asexuality and aromanticism. Aubrey shares her personal journey from conducting adult toy parties to discovering her own asexual and gray romantic identities. We unravel the definitions of asexuality and aromanticism, shedding light on the spectrum of these experiences, including terms like gray romantic. Aubrey's insights challenge societal expectations of romantic relationships and emphasize the importance of understanding and respecting diverse orientations. Listen in as we unpack the complexity of asexuality and aromanticism, highlighting the diversity within these identities through the lens of the Asexual Community Survey. We discuss how self-identification empowers individuals and the need to create space for all experiences on the spectrum.

As avid players of Dungeons and Dragons, Co-DMs, and players previously scorned, we know all too well the immense joy and devastating pain that asexual players can sometimes face at the gaming table. Due to popular demand, our love of the game, and desire for DnD to be a safer hobby for our community, we're back to analyze another round of TTRPG horror stories.

Tahitia Timmons' parents were hippies, and so Tahitia had been around queer people since childhood. But when she came out to her mother as a teenager, Tahitia was shocked - and angry - to be met with the response "Why would you choose to be gay when you're already Black and a woman?" Tahitia shares how it wasn't until years later when one of her own children came out to her that she finally gained a real understanding of (and compassion for) her mother's fear-based response. We have a fascinating conversation that runs the gamut from asexuality to the evolution of lesbian stereotypes to that first queer heartbreak that just GUTS you. Plus, Tahitia explains how her company, Conscious By Us, tackles DEI specifically from a health (especially mental health) and wellness perspective.There are a ton of places where you can find Tahitia!

For the 160th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Cody Daigle-Orians, the influencer behind Ace Dad Advice and author of I Am Ace, to discuss the underrepresentation of asexuality in popular culture. It's Pride Month, and there's lots of rightful celebration for the LGBTIA community, but rarely mention of the acronym's A. In fact, asexuality is so underrepresented in culture that it can be hard to self-identify. Cody Daigle-Orians didn't realize they were asexual until age 42 after initially coming out as gay. It was reading about asexuality on Tumblr that led to their ah-ha moment. In this episode, Cody explains the nuances of asexuality and attraction, including the differences between sexual, romantic, and aesthetic attraction, as well as the glossary of related ace terms. Cody also debunks some common misconceptions, shares how their asexuality journey led them to rethink their gender identity, how polyamory fits into their equation, and provides tips for navigating mixed identity relationships.  For more from today's guest, Cody Daigle-Orians: Follow Cody on Instagram @acedadadvice Follow Cody on Twitter @acedadadvice Follow Cody on TikTok @acedadadvice Buy Cody's book I Am Ace: Advice on Living Your Best Asexual Life Check out Cody's website acedadadvice.com Psst, Courtney has an 0nIyFan$, which is a horny way to support the show: https://linktr.ee/cocopeepshow Courtney is also teaching the writing and publishing intensive of your dreams this July.

And it's so patronizing."SSRIs, or Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors, are a class of antidepressant medications commonly used to treat depression, anxiety disorders, and certain other mental health conditions. Reported side-effects of many SSRI's and antidepressants include decreased libido and difficulty achieving orgasm. As western cultures observe a trending rise in asexuality among young women as well as a rapid increase in the widespread use SSRIs and other antidepressants for depression and anxiety, could there be link between post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD) and the identification of some individuals as asexual? As these kinds of drugs are being so regularly prescribed, are patients being adequately warned about the potential for long-term sexual side-effects?Freya India wrote about this in her article, Are You Asexual Or On Antidepressants?: You deserve to know if your sexual identity is a side-effect.And are the mental health companies targeting women with patronizing marketing tactics implying that women need pharmaceutically induced wellness?
