“Some victims of rape or other sexual violence incidents are male. It is estimated that approximately one in six men experienced sexual abuse during childhood.[1][better source needed] Historically, rape was thought to be, and defined as, a crime committed solely against females. This belief is still held in some parts of the world, but rape of males is now commonly criminalized and has been subject to more discussion than in the past.[2] Males are far less likely to report sexual abuse than females.[3] Rape of males is still taboo, and has a negative connotation among heterosexual and homosexual men.[4][5] Community and service providers often react differently to male victims based on their sexual orientation and the gender of their perpetrators.[6] It may be difficult for male victims to report a sexual assault they experienced, especially in a society with a strong masculine custom. They might be afraid that people will doubt their sexual orientation and label them homosexual, especially if raped by a male, or that they may be seen as un-masculine because they were a victim, and therefore many statistics underestimate how many males are raped due to their unwillingness to report sexual assault and rape.[7] Most of the time, male victims try to hide and deny their victimization, similar to female victims, unless they have serious physical injuries. Eventually, the male victims may be very vague in explaining their injuries when they are seeking medical or mental health services.[3]” -Wikipedia. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

“Phase 1. Acknowledgement + Accountability Explore what happened and acknowledge it emotionally and cognitively. Usually, the surfacing of self-blame is the first sign that we have hurt ourselves or someone else or violated our values in some way. We may experience feelings of guilt, regret or remorse. Part of this self-forgiveness exercise is recognizing these emotions and resisting urges to suppress, ignore or minimize them. Instead, treat these feelings as important guides and teachers. This phase involves a grounding or centering practice so that you can engage in the process of self-forgiveness. Consider what helps you feel grounded in the reality of the present moment. For example, go for a walk in the woods or focus on your breathing. Spend time in a practice that truly grounds you and enables you to arrive in a more centered, grounded, clear-headed place. Phase 2. Seek Understanding with Self-Compassion Once you come to a more settled place, reflect on the reality of what happened. Slow down the tape of your memory, and try to remember all of what transpired, connecting with all of the sensory details. Create a deeper sense of empathy by imagining what this was like for the other person — even if you were hurt, too. You may find that some details are more painful than others, but try to stay with those emotions as best you can. And if it feels too overwhelming, pause and come back to this, honoring where you are in this process. This may be a phase you return to for quite some time. One aspect of understanding with self-compassion is to honor and remember the context in which those actions occurred. Was there anything that made you vulnerable to certain behaviors, such as an illness, sleep deprivation or a recent stressor? Was a past emotional trauma or hurt activated, leading you to be angry, guarded, defensive or critical? What was the influence of personal values, cultural norms and expectations? Strive to describe the entirety of the circumstances in an objective, factual, non-judgmental and self-compassionate way. Remember that we all hurt others, even the people we love the most. We may not feel deserving of forgiveness, and not allowing forgiveness can be a way of punishing ourselves. Phase 3. Make Amends + Repair We cannot self-forgive until we have made efforts, as best we can, to make amends and repair the situation. Muster the courage and willingness to face this truth and repair whatever harm we have caused. Try to make amends in a way that resonates with the person and is connected to the transgression. Note: Part of the repair process also means accepting consequences gracefully and without defensiveness. Someone may not wish to be in our lives anymore or may need time and space away. Honor their needs. If someone is not open to your amends and repair, get creative about how to achieve this. For example, write a letter that you don't mail or send a prayer of love and kindness to them. While it may be harder to forgive ourselves when we haven't received forgiveness, there is a difference between seeking forgiveness from someone and our process of self-forgiveness. Self-forgiveness is for ourselves — to be in alignment with ourselves and able to still find our innate goodness even with our harmful actions. Phase 4. Engage in Committed Action Immediate repair is not the only goal of the practice of self-forgiveness. How can we learn from our mistakes and make different choices in the future, dedicating ourselves to not causing further suffering? Committed action may also mean returning to the practice of self-forgiveness again and again. The Path to Self-Forgiveness: Next Steps Self-forgiveness can be a transformative path; woven through these four phases, we embrace the values of: Bravery Self-compassion Acceptance Integrity Commitment.” -https://melissafoynes.com/self-forgiveness-exercises/. “I forgive myself and I took all these steps.” -Antonio Myers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Why do so many people feel unable to be sexually expressive? Freya Mc Farlane, Tantra Facilitator and ex-midwife, talks about the inhibitions she witnessed at numerous births, and how this is linked to sexual expression. She goes on to talk about how playing with archetypes can free us from our limitations. www.livetantra.com

“Self-control—or the ability to manage one's impulses, emotions, and behaviors to achieve long-term goals—is what separates humans from the rest of the animal kingdom. Self-control is primarily rooted in the prefrontal cortex—the planning, problem-solving, and decision making center of the brain—which is significantly larger in humans than in other mammals. The richness of nerve connections in the prefrontal cortex enables people to plan, evaluate alternative actions, and ideally avoid doing things they'll later regret, rather than immediately respond to every impulse as it arises.” -The Psychology Today Staff. “Consent is easy as FRIES: Freely given. Consenting is a choice you make without pressure, manipulation, or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Reversible. Anyone can change their mind about what they feel like doing, anytime. Even if you've done it before, and even if you're both naked in bed. Informed. You can only consent to something if you have the full story. For example, if someone says they'll use a condom and then they don't, there isn't full consent. Enthusiastic. When it comes to sex, you should only do stuff you WANT to do, not things that you feel you're expected to do. Specific. Saying yes to one thing (like going to the bedroom to make out) doesn't mean you've said yes to others (like having sex). You get the final say over what happens with your body. It doesn't matter if you've hooked up before or even if you said yes earlier and then changed your mind. You're allowed to say “stop” at any time, and your partner needs to respect that. Consent is never implied by things like your past behavior, what you wear, or where you go. Sexual consent is always clearly communicated — there should be no question or mystery. Silence is not consent. And it's not just important the first time you're with someone. Couples who've had sex before or even ones who've been together for a long time also need to consent before sex — every time.” -Planned Parenthood --- 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

“No, no. Listen. I put everybody that comes into my life in the category of a tree. Some people are like leaves on a tree. The wind blows, they're over here. It blows the other way, they're over there. They're unstable. Seasons change. They wither and die. They're gone. That's alright. Most people in the world are like that. They're just there to take from the tree. They aren't going to do anything but take and give shade every now and then. That's all they can do. Don't get mad at people like that. That's who they are. They were put on the earth to be a leaf. Some people are like a branch on the tree. You gotta be careful of those branches too. They'll fool you. They make you think they're a good friend and they're real strong, but you step out there on them, and they break and they leave you high and dry. But if you find you two or three people in your life just like the roots at the bottom of that tree, you are blessed ‘cause them the kind of people that ain't going nowhere. They ain't worried about being seen. Don't nobody have to know they know you. Don't have to know what they're doing for you. But if those roots weren't there, that tree couldn't live. A tree can have a hundred million branches, but there's only a few roots down at the bottom. I'm telling you son, when you get some roots, hang onto them. But the rest of them, let it go. Let folks go.” -Madea (Tyler Perry) --- 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

“Self-care has been defined as the process of establishing behaviors to ensure holistic well-being of oneself, to promote health, and actively manage illness when it occurs.[1] Individuals engage in some form of self-care daily with food choices, exercise, sleep, reading and dental care.[1] Self-care is not only a solo activity as the community—a group that supports the person performing self-care—overall plays a large role in access to, implementation of, and success of self-care activities.” “Feminist Porn As A Genre Feminist porn as a “genre” is also fairly tricky to define as it includes so many types of sex acts, orientations, performers and methods. “Gonzo” porn – which has no plot and often the director is part of the action – is quite common, as is “documentary-style” shooting where the performers have whatever sex they like without direction. At the same time, you'll find your fair share of feature-style films with elaborate storylines and great acting. Queer and lesbian porn has come to be heavily associated with it but there's also plenty of heterosexual-themed films as well. Feminist porn doesn't discriminate when it comes to what sex it depicts. Films can show softcore, soft-focus, romantized sex or full-on hardcore, fisting, female ejaculation or intense kink. It can happily depict rough sex, BDSM, choking, spitting, facial cumshots or anything else Gail Dines regularly attributes to “degrading porn”. The sex acts themselves are not a defining feature; an emphasis on agency and enthusiastic consent – especially when it comes to “extreme” porn – takes precedence. Female-identified directors have tended to dominate feminist porn but it's not an exclusive club – male-identified directors have described their porn as feminist as well. And of course, trans and non-binary people feature as prominent creators of feminist porn content.” --- 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

Sexuality and gender have come to serve as measures for cultural belonging in discussions of the position of Muslim immigrants in multicultural Western societies. While the acceptance of assumed local norms such as sexual liberty and gender equality is seen as successful integration, rejecting them is regarded as a sign of failed citizenship. Focusing on premarital sex, homosexuality, and cohabitation outside marriage, Sexual Self-Fashioning: Iranian Dutch Narratives of Sexuality and Belonging (Berghahn Books, 2022) provides an ethnographic account of sexuality among the Iranian Dutch. It argues that by embracing, rejecting, and questioning modernity in stories about sexuality, the Iranian Dutch actively engage in processes of self-fashioning.

“1. Set ground rules with your partner. To engage in healthy BDSM play, you and your partner should both agree on what you're comfortable with before you begin—nobody should feel pressured into a particular role or feel as if they don't have a choice. Have an open and honest dialogue with your partner about the roles you're each drawn toward so that you both feel comfortable and confident experimenting. If you're too nervous about bringing it up directly and you're curious about your partner's interest levels, consider watching light BDSM erotica together to broach the subject. Learn how to talk about sex with your partner. 2. Select a safe word. Trust and mutual consent between one or more partners are the foundation of BDSM. However, it may be hard to distinguish between playful banter and an honest request to slow down or stop the experience in the middle of a session. Every BDSM practitioner should establish at least one safe word with their partner—something either person can say to signal that a boundary has been crossed and a break is necessary. Additionally, you and your partner can choose two different safe words—one that signals a stop in action and another that signals you're coming close to a boundary and should ease off or move the session in a different direction. 3. Brainstorm roleplaying ideas. If you're unsure how to begin a BDSM relationship with your partner or feeling self-conscious, consider some roleplay scenarios that can help jumpstart the action. Boss and employee, teacher and student, doctor and patient, or two strangers are all roles that you can take on to help distance yourself from the situation, which can be a great way to help you get over stage fright so that you can relax and enjoy yourself. 4. Start small. If you're new to BDSM, avoid buying a complicated rope system or a fancy leather outfit. Instead, let yourself ease in to see if this form of sex play suits you and your partner. Try light BDSM activities for starters; many discipline or D/s sessions only require two willing participants and some imagination. If you want to buy equipment, a blindfold and some wrist restraints are useful, inexpensive items that you can continue to use if you determine that hardcore BDSM activities are not for you. 5. Understand risk. There are two main schools of thought regarding how to treat risk during sessions—the “safe, sane, and consensual” model (SSC) and the “risk-aware consensual kink” model (RACK). Those who follow the SSC model emphasize safety, sticking to activities that you and your partner have designated as “safe” beforehand. Those who follow the RACK model believe that the word “safe” is problematic because most BDSM activities are inherently risky and that emphasizing safety takes away participants' freedom to evaluate risk on their own or engage in higher-risk BDSM play. For those who follow the RACK model, the responsibility to determine risk and comfort is with each individual—making explicit consent even more crucial. 6. Aftercare is key. Many sexual activities—and BDSM sessions in particular—can be physically or emotionally intense for both participants, so partners must engage in healthy aftercare following the sexual experience. Discussion, cuddling, and cleaning up together are great ways to help everyone wind down and process the session, fostering a sense of calm, physical wellness, and emotional well-being.” I never paid for sex in the past, I accepted legal job money only from past lovers as a way of being nice to me. --- 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

How do I get my wife to develop her sexual self? That is probably one of the most common questions I get from husbands. This question makes the assumption that if I just say the right thing in the right way their eyes will be opened and all will be right in my world. But that is not usually the case. And what it actually ends up doing is creating more unhealthy pressure. So, how do you create healthy pressure? Listen to this episode to find out.
