Embracing Pleasure: A Sacred Dance of Shadow & Light
In a world obsessed with hustle culture and self-denial, I'm making a radical case for something that shouldn't be revolutionary: Pleasure. Not just sexual pleasure, though that's part of it, but the full spectrum of joyful experiences that make life worth living. Recent trends in "purity and productivity culture" on social media have sparked this conversation – from denouncing self-pleasure to equating money with enjoyment. But what if there's more to life than these limiting beliefs?
Pleasure isn't just a luxury – it's our body's way of saying "yes" to life. It's the warmth of sunlight on your skin, the taste of your favorite meal, the rush of accomplishment after a challenge. But for centuries, society has viewed pleasure, especially when associated with the feminine, with suspicion. It's time to reclaim these vital, life-giving aspects of ourselves. Want to know how?

Little did I know the challenges and triumphs that awaited us...
