Sexy Intersections: Anti-Oppression & Sex Positivity

This class helps us all think about the many power dynamics that affect us when we interact in sex positive community. This is a core class in Sex Positive World for all of us wanting to learn more about how we show up/speak up/receive feedback from others when we share space together. It’s a good space for beginners who are eager to learn as well as for experienced community members who want more tools and techniques to navigate sexy spaces well.

We’ll think about our many identities and how they shape our expertise, and the areas where we need to learn and grow. We’ll spend time talking about the inevitable mistakes we make and the ways we hurt each other. Then we'll walk through ways to better handle those hard times when we’ve done things that don’t align with who we think we are.

We’ll center race and gender in the exercises we work on together while learning more about how all aspects of oppression and privilege affect our sex positive interactions in the community. We'll encourage folks from all walks of life to work on perspective-taking from our privileges as well as our oppressions.

Sex Positive World is an umbrella organization that encourages and supports worldwide sex positive communities. We are an entirely volunteer-run non-profit committed to changing societal ideas and values around sexuality through education and empowerment.

Our umbrella covers all aspects of human sexuality including gender and orientation (LGBTQIA), relationship styles (monogamy-polyamory), and sexual expressions (kink, tantra, lifestyle). We focus on consent and boundaries, how to have a sexy safer sex talk, body-positivity, healthy touch, sexual health, reproductive freedom, trans rights, anti-racism (yes, this is a sex positive issue!), sex-positive parenting, and more.

This organization was founded in 2009 as a single chapter in Portland, Oregon, and we have since expanded to more than 5000 members and 10 chapters in cities across the US and Europe. Click HERE to learn more about Sex Positive World & find a chapter near you!
