Compulsion

*grown folks disclaimer: the writings on these walls illustrate conversations about the lessons we’ve learned about sex, love, and laughter:

Whose pleasure experiences are we centering?
Who is owed or deserving of pleasure?
What did your parents tell you?
What have you seen on TV?
How much of what you think and do is pure compulsion?

I had to dig for lessons my mother’s mother never told her, because she couldn’t gift what she didn’t know.

I met my truths alone in the dark.
I found beauty in the ways she leans.
