Mute

The most important things are the hardest to talk about. How do we find ways to connect in the complexity of sex for greater connection, empathy and liberation? Sex and relationships are a place where we might need to be most understood, yet are mute. Silence reigns when we don’t have the words, permission, acceptance or safety to express who we are, what we long for and what has disappointed or hurt us in the past. Communication about the helpful pleasurable, confusing or erotic things can’t take place amidst secrecy, shame, or feeling too much or not enough. Finding the kind words is essential.
