We need pleasure seeker monasteries/labratories to

Explore the wide range of erotic behavior as it informs/ activates/ re-creates/energize the rest of our lives as well as expanding the deep fun of being human

Imagine if we spent 10% of the US military budget on that research …….

Monasteries being pan sexual in this usage

I saw this notification immediately after waking up for a nap and could not for the life of me figure out what it meant until I found your other comment, lol!!

I wish it was better studied overall—I had a brief stint in psychology (before I decided to be a broke writer) and it’s crazy how limited the research on sex was, at least back then

There is “showtime” performative sensual sexual

That is both provocative and potentially a distraction from exploring the interventive/revelatory resetting of the individual and collective/collaborative sensual-sexual networks

The deep fun of

Personal and societal dissolution- recreation

Turn on as prayer

I loved the quote you posted as a note. The stuff that gets mediated through screens is so sanitised it barely counts as sexual discourse anymore. It's more like marketing. The most honest conversations about desire I've had have always been behind closed doors.

Desire and sex and pleasure aren't synonymous, let alone aligned. Anyone who's given birth knows the difference.
