Sensually Speaking: Exploring Sensuality & Sexual Liberation For Masc. Identifying Queer People
Hosted by Kalyn Jacobs
[In-Person]
The world of sexual wellness is largely seen as a predominantly femme space; And by no means is that a negative critique but a concerned observation. We live in a world where visibility changes the course of people’s lives and it’s important for people to be able to see themselves and hear stories from those like them when it comes to navigating a subject so vulnerable and intimate. Sensually Speaking is an incubator space, soon to be podcast, inviting masculine identifying queer people to discuss body acceptance, the relationship between vulnerability and pleasure, and explore the concepts of sensual and sexual liberation and what that journey looks like for each individual. This space is open to all who is interested in coming, but very intentionally centers those that identify as masculine presenting. There will be time set aside towards the end for all to comment and ask questions.
Through a series of prompted questions, the objective of the discussion is to offer a safe space for people to share their experiences and self-care practices in navigating sensuality. A Self Check-In worksheet will be provided for the group to allow each individual a personal moment of reflection in regards to their sensual self. This worksheet also serves as a keepsake from the event for people to reference as they as continue their sensual journeys in life.
This event would be most effective in-person at the Matka studio due to its intimate subject matter, however, should the current Covid 19 surge carry into the end of February, this event is fully prepared to be shifted into the virtual space via zoom.
