Sex positivity
DESCRIPTION
The belief that sex is a natural, healthy part of life and nothing to be ashamed of. It’s about having an open, curious, and respectful attitude toward sexuality—your own and others’—while recognizing that everyone’s boundaries, preferences, and experiences deserve the same respect. Being sex positive doesn’t mean always saying yes to sex, being sexually adventurous, or even sexually active at all. It’s a mindset, rather than a behavior. One rooted in consent, communication, and acceptance. Someone who’s sex positive supports honest conversations about desire and pleasure, sex education that is inclusive of all gender identities and sexualities, and the idea that any consensual, safe sex (or choice not to have sex) is equally valid.
