Sex positivity means creating an environment where individualized sexuality and sex is supported and encouraged in a safe and consensual manner. Sex positivity works within a system of consent and open communication. Dialogue should be used to ensure the parties involved are fully consenting and aware of the sexual activities. Sex positivity means people support healthy sexual encounters as well as supporting a person’s right to chose a non-sexual encounter or to not engage in sex. Sex positivity fosters an inclusive environment for all.

That was the thing about words, they were clear and specific- chair, eye, stone- but when you talked about feelings, words were too stiff, they were this and not that, they couldn’t include all the meanings. In defining, they always left something out.
