Ooooo this week friends we are talking about p l e a s u r e. Now for some of us “pleasure” is one of those words that fits right up there with "moist" and "quiver" — cringe city. And we’re no more comfortable with the concept; women, especially Black women, have been taught to deny, repress, abhor, forget, and be ashamed about our own pleasure and exploring our pleasure. But the truth is that experiencing pleasure is fundamental to being alive, and in order to embrace our full selves, we need to embrace, get comfortable with, and allow ourselves to be led by our pleasure. So let’s talk about what pleasure is, how we all got so weird about it, and how we can learn to get friendly with it and become our fullest most alive selves!
