Explore more: Sex and relationship advice

Meg-John Barker — Thu, 09 Mar 2017 16:55:51 +0000

The Explore More summit started yesterday, and my vid went live today, along with excellent chats between Dawn Serra and Feminista Jones (sexuality and anti-racism expert) and Betty Martin (consent inspiration).

Check out this page to watch all the vids and find out more about the rest of this amazing online summit about sex, love, relationships, self-care, and much more.

My vid covered:

The systemic & pervasive problems with sex advice, and what Justin Hancock and I are proposing as an alternative to enjoying sex.
Why having sexual goals (orgasm, erection, wetness, intercourse) pushes us further from pleasure & connection.
Getting our needs met from a variety of sources and the importance of valuing non-romantic, non-sexual relationships.
Consent for the entire relationship and what that looks like for all of us.

Here’s a teaser video for my slot on the Explore More Summit. There’s still plenty of time to sign up to this fabulous free online event on sex, love, relationships, and much more.

My full video will be appearing on the summit on Thursday (9th March) and I’m stoked to be on the same day as the amazing black feminist writer and activist Feminista Jones, and one of my all-time consent heroes, Betty Martin.

I’m so excited to announce that I’m speaking at the Explore More Summit again this year. I had a great time last year and was very pleased to be invited back to chat more about the Enjoy Sex book and many many other things.

Explore More is a free online summit that is all about exploring your more: in sex (of all kinds), in your relationships, and in your life.

There are talks on sexual pleasure, body politics, oppression, diet culture, trauma, emotional intelligence, disability, and so so much more.

It all starts March 8th and runs for 10 days, but if you register early you get a free mini workbook full of prompts, questions, and quotes from all of the talks. Also there’s a private Facebook group where you can connect with other attendees and the speakers.

If you fancy it, grab your spot, check out the line up, and tell your friends – exploremoresummit.com
