Our “Sacred Sex” collection is a reminder that our sex is, indeed, sacred. And recognizing the sacred nature of what we do with our Erotic Bodies is the first step in countering centuries of being told that we are sinful, impure or disordered. Those words have taken their toll on our community and many of us have experienced the shame and trauma that comes with them. Maybe we can generate positivity and healing by beginning to think of our sexual experiences as moments of grace, of blessing, or as opportunities to have deep gratitude for what our bodies give us. It’s time to take back words and concepts like ‘blessed’, ‘holy’, ‘consecrated’ and ‘sacrament’, to reclaim the truly sacred nature of our desires. In Penance, Ray Dexter, Tomik 9.5 and Troye Jacobs, we see a reclaiming of imagery and symbolism around this sacrament.
