#10 The one about masturbation 1:19:36

1:19:36

Growing up in a very religious setting, I had very little information about sex, sexuality, and especially masturbation. In fact, I had never even heard about masturbation until the age of 15. My own self-explorations were shrouded in shame and guilt, and only about a decade later did I manage to shake off most of the damaging stories I'd internali…

I've spent most of my life either feeling ashamed of or resolutely ignoring my body. However, over the past few years I've come to integrate more and more my physical being into my sense of self, and have learned that my body holds a lot of truth.

I share some recent embarrassing moments from my lif…
