Status Updates From Uses of the Erotic: The Ero...

"The very word erotic comes from the Greek word eros, the personification of love in all its aspects — born of Chaos, and personifying creative power and harmony. When I speak of the erotic, then, I speak of it as an assertion of the lifeforce of women; of that creative energy empowered, the knowledge and use of which we are now reclaiming in our language, our history, our dancing, our loving, our work, our lives."

"Pues el puente que conecta lo espiritual y lo político es precisamente lo erótico, lo sensual, aquellas expresiones físicas, emocionales y psicológicas de lo más profundo, poderoso y rico de nuestro interior, aquello que compartimos: la pasión del amor en su sentido más profundo." barres

muchas veces renunciamos a indagar en lo erótico y a considerarlo una fuente de poder e información, confundiéndolo con su antítesis, la pornografía. Ahora bien, la pornografía es la negación directa del poder del erotismo, ya que representa la supresión de los sentimientos verdaderos. La pornografía pone el énfasis en la sensación sin sentimiento.

The erotic functions are sharing any deep pursuit with another person. Sharing of joy, physical, emotional, psychic or intellectual.
I feel the power of the erotic through music and dancing.

“And that deep and irreplaceable knowledge of my capacity for joy comes to demand from all of my life that it be lived within the knowledge that such satisfaction is possible, and does not have to be called marriage, nor god, nor an afterlife.”
