Sex positivity has become something that’s gotten a lot more attention in the past few years, but what does it mean, especially for folks of color? I invited sex positive Asian auntie Jayda Shuavarnnnasri on the show to talk about this with me and unpack the things we all didn’t learn about sexuality, our bodies and how our sensuality is our birthright.   Note: Sexual violence and trauma is mentioned in this show, but not in detail.   About Jayda Shuavarnnnasri Jayda Shuavarnnnasri is a queer Southeast Asian sexual wellness educator. Also known as Sex Positive Asian Auntie, she works to liberate folks from sexual shame by creating space for authentic conversations about sexuality, relationships, identity and healing.
