Sex.Sexuality.Sodomy.Shame.
These are part of life which we are not equipped to handle.
I hid my body under my towel.My breast had become the biggest source of pain for me, says Meetali a 44 year old woman. My husband of 23 years went to another woman for sex .Where did I go wrong? I asked him “I wanted big boobs”. As I looked at my own naked body in the mirror I felt ashamed. For one year nearly I would just wrap my body in towel so that I don’t look at it in the mirror in the washroom. I was shattered and developed a feeling of rejection, loss of faith and started shaming my own body and my sense of self.
I was trying to fix my pain and started watching porn and doing research on breast implants. But wasn’t able to resolve.
Soon I realised that I need to come back to myself for myself.
I started chanting, watching motivational videos, conversations with myself and restored my pranic healing.There cannot be at times one road to healing when different parts of you are effected.
A relationship of four years falls apart.There was emotional and physical intimacy obviously that is why it was a relationship. Suddenly the girl says that “I feel used”. He just wanted me for “Sex”.
Do you think your body is some kitchen vessel which is used and kept aside? And he just wanted Sex? So was it only sex between you?
SELF RESPECT.
What image do you have in your mind of your own body?
When you shame your body you will shame sex.
Why is it that men are more open about sex and enjoy sex more?
The instances of women encountering body shaming are much higher than men. Often they are commented shamefully about the size of their breast and ass. Deep down it affects sexuality. Victims of sex abuse also start thinking of sex as shameful. Sodomy too is as old as human species.
A 22 year old girl and 26 year old boy confidently hold this view that sex is just an activity. Not a taboo. Period. We don’t condemn people when they watch regular movies why judge someone who is interested in watching porn? It is just a different excitement for the person.
An examiner once apparently shared with me that, she was too embarrassed to ask questions for the viva voice because the topic was sex education. Now here, what is embarrassing sex or education?
We talk about teachers and parents role in sex education but we also need to see, are they equipped to handle sensitive yet real topics like this!?
Imagine the plight of the mother when she tells her 13 year old girl that I think it is time to talk about sex.The super energetic teen promptly replies, yes mom what do you want to know?
Our population! Just sex!
