Sexual Autonomy Quotes

“I don’t care how much sexual autonomy you have, you’ll never find true satisfaction until you realize where your true freedom lies—it lies in your sensuality.”
― Lebo Grand

“Agreeing to something does not make that thing any less harmful for our bodies or minds. It is psychologically exhausting, damaging and toxic to fake a connection to someone, especially a sexual connection. Not being free to be yourself in such a vulnerable and intimate situation is physically and psychologically exhausting. Being paid to have sex on someone else’s terms is the farthest thing from sexual autonomy that exists.”
― Mia Döring, Any Girl: A Memoir of Sexual Exploitation and Recovery

“We’ve all lived too damn long lugging around this puritanical notion that pleasure must be villainized to protect us from ourselves.⁠

Fuck that.⁠

Seriously.⁠

The only question you need to ask is this:⁠

Is everyone involved in full personal safety and enthusiastic consent?⁠

Ask it loudly and repeatedly if you need to.⁠

Yes?⁠

Then you go with your bad, brilliant, beautiful, pleasure-filled self.⁠

Our bodies are here to feel good.⁠

And what makes that happen isn’t for anyone else to decide.⁠

It doesn’t matter whether you’re outside the gender binary, into collars and restraints, love someone with the same parts, desire more than one human, or have a kinky turn on others think is weird.⁠

Monogamous, polyamorous, relationship anarchist, vanilla, kinky—whatever your flavor, it’s valid.⁠

We’ve all wasted way too much damn time in the closet.⁠

End of story.”
