Spontaneous STARS: In real time consent talk
STARS is an acronym for Sexual Health, Turn on's, Avoids, Relationship Intentions & Safer Sex Etiquette.
It is a big part of communication in a consent based sex positive culture.
It is my hope to highlight the ways in which you can flirt and have fun while getting honest about what you are interested in and open to exploring.
Matheo, a friend of a friend, here visiting in Nashville, who I had just met a few day before, is a sexual educator and advocate for sex positivity in Portland, OR.
Since we had hit it off so well and had plans to hangout, we decided to have the start of our first date live on the podcast, in order to give the audience a look at navigating in real time the STARS talk.
We discussed a lot about our sex lives, spirituality, the Christ Consciousness and other powerful ideas as we do on this show, because whatever we discuss, it all comes back to sex.
STARS is a great framework to explore when you have established mutual interest and you are ready to share your desires, as you get clarity on the desires of others.
It was a delight to have this raw and vulnerable moment exploring interest with a new lover. May it be an example of how to play and discover with kind curiosity.
