Podcasts about sex positive culture

Have you ever wanted to engage in a little friendly social masturbation? Legendary Author and Sexologist Carol Queen takes us on a freestyle journey back to the 80's, where she details her own fear of sex, and how she found true love. In the early days of the AIDS Epidemic, lack of medical answers lead to a generalized Coitophobia… could intercourse actually kill you? Soon the San Francisco Jacks come up with a creative way to release sexual energy, but they only allow gay men. Solution: Time for a Jill-Off, too - but be careful where you set down your hat. And Dixie is going On Tour, finally - Get Ready to Get Bawdy, y'all!   Song: ‘W.Y.D.O.T.D.

In today's episode of The Better Sex Podcast, we will be having conversations with Eirikah Delaunay, a writer, Witch, and sexual rebel who identifies as a white, polyamorous, bisexual, cisgender woman, Dominant-leaning Switch, and sadomasochist. She is also the mother of two amazing adult children, an executive-level academic professional, and previously a monogamous wife of 20 years. Both/and is her magic word.     The founder of Desire Alchemy, she is a somatic sex+relationship coach and initiated priestess who helps people use embodiment, storytelling, and ritual to transform the energy of their own unique desire into fuel for lives of connection and passion. Her mission is to re-ignite and strengthen stale relationships (including the relationship with self) by cultivating true authenticity, practical skills, devotion, and delight.    In her pursuit of deeper connection through language and embodiment, she earned an MFA in Creative Writing, and trained as a sex+relationship coach at the Somatica InstituteTM. She has had the joy of more than a decade of connection, education, and service in the Seattle sex-positive community, where she has served as a “Tasting Top” and guest educator and facilitator on topics ranging from hands-on skills, D/s dynamics, sacred sexuality, and strategies for maintaining intimacy and connection in long-distance relationships. She currently serves on the Board of the Center for Sex-Positive Culture in Seattle.   Her erotic writing appeared in the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival Literary Anthology in 2018-2020 and 2022. Her chapter “Light Your Fire: Ecstatic Embodiment to Fuel Your Dreams” was featured in the Amazon #1 bestseller, Sacred Medicine: Mystical Practices for Ecstatic Living, and her chapter “Turn Yourself On: Embodiment Practices to Jump Start Your Day” was featured in the Amazon #1 bestseller, The Ultimate Guide to Self-Healing Volume 5. She provides individual, partnered, and group coaching for people curious and excited about using effective communication, magic, sexuality, kink, and/or power exchange relationships as vehicles for personal growth and bliss.   Experience better sex and learn the importance of communicating your desires by tuning in to this episode!   Highlights: (05:28) Erikah's Story  (09:41) What does it mean to be polyamorous, bisexual, cisgender, and dominant leaning switch?

What were the sexual scripts you were given by society as a child?  Have you ever questioned those "norms" to determine if they served you as a child or an adult?  Crystal engages in a dope conversation with Pleasure Professional, Goody Howard, MSW, MPH where she shares that sex can be a positive thing in a person's life. Goody explains that sex positivity is the idea that people should have space to embody, explore, and learn about their sexuality and gender without judgment or shame.

People are having less sex than ever even though we are supposedly more sex positive than ever. Apoc and Cassandra discuss two articles, "Sex Negative Society by Jacob Falkovich https://quillette.com/2021/05/13/the-sex-negative-society/ and The New Yorker's book review on “Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again: Women and Desire in the Age of Consent,” Katherine Angel https://www.newyorker.com/books/under-review/the-politics-of-bad-sex Sex is less frequent and naturally with less practice comes less skill which can lead to a bad time.

Today I speak with William Winters about inclusivity and diversity in polyamorous and sex positive culture, consent as care, and the intersection of activism and erotic liberation. In 2014, the San Francisco Chronicle named William Winters the "de facto king of the East Bay polyamory scene." He's been working to earn the title ever since. An activist, educator, and intimacy coach, William is the founder and co-producer of Bonobo Network, an Oakland-based organization that brings together folks who understand that monogamy isn't right for everyone and that pleasure comes in many different packages to become more sexually informed, liberated, consensual, communicative, kind, and inclusive so that we can all get the pleasure, connection, and understanding we deserve. William has also been an advocate for polyamory in the media, appearing in San Francisco Magazine, KQED's Forum, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the New York Times. He has facilitated conversations about polyamory and sex-positive culture in settings including university campuses, political conferences, living rooms, Burning Man, and beyond. A campaign strategist by profession, a culture nerd by avocation, and a philosopher by major, William lives with his wife and their stupid cat in Oakland, CA.

Peace be with you! This week we're sitting down with Rev. Austin Adkinson and theologian J.D. Mechelke to dive into the tricky topic of polyamory and Christianity. How is the Christian church handling shifting values around sexuality and non-traditional relationships? What about the church's bad track record with sex positivity? And what the heck is a sword drill?J.D. R. Mechelke (he/him/his) J.D. R. Mechelke currently lives in Minneapolis, MN. He graduated from Augsburg University in Minneapolis, MN with a B.A. in Youth and Family Ministry. Currently, he is pursuing an M.A. in Systematic Theology from Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN. He currently serves as High School Youth Minister at an ELCA church in the twin cities. When J.D. isn’t studying Lutheran and Queer theologies he enjoys drinking beer on the deck and paddling with his partner Andrew in Minnesota’s BWCAW.Rev. Austin Adkinson is the pastor of Haller Lake UMC in Seattle. He is a member of the leadership teams of United Methodist Queer Clergy Caucus and the Western Methodist Justice Movement and was part of the 2016 General Conference delegation from the PNW Conference.

Join Mary E., as she welcomes Erotica author Kyoko Church. Kyoko comes to us from Australia as she celebrates her newest illustrated fiction, "Diary of a Library Nerd." Mary E., and Kyoko go deeper than just discussing the novel, and explore shame in sex, sex-positivity, feminism, kink and self-discovery and the role that Erotic fiction plays in exploring human sexuality.  Kyoko discovered the power of the pen when she was 16 years old and penned a very explicit missive to her boyfriend detailing all the naughty things she wanted to do to him. When he received it, boyfriend was impressed. When he found it, father was not. For the next 18 years she hid her naughty thoughts in shame until she found a community where they were once again appreciated for the well-imagined smut they are. Her short stories and novellas have been published by Black Lace, Xcite Books, HarperCollins Mischief Books, Sweetmeats Press, Cleis Press and Running Press. A Canuck by birth, she has recently made Australia her home. She is currently learning to drive on the left and say G’day convincingly.

Fresh (if that can be the word for it) from Dark Odyssey Fusion, Graydancer shares a couple of interviews with kinky rope folk at the Ramblewood Campground. He's heading back there soon for RopeCamp, and the Cat who dragged him there talks up her event and why the rope community needs to get outside for some fresh air. Then Gray takes you in for some questions from Formspring about what happens when your closest friends are people you see once or twice a year, and the real meaning of "showing off". Finally he does a blow-by-blow (not THAT kind of blow, you perv/druggie) account of his scene with Mollena, and why sometimes you gotta cut the psychological rope. Look for Graydancer and DoNotGoGently next at TEASE in Canada, and then he's off to the Bondage Capitol of the World, Madison WI for MADTOWNKINKFEST. ***this just in*** Get you tickets now for the Seattle GRUE coming up August 19-21, 2011 at the Center for Sex Positive Culture!
