A community-driven discussion around pleasure, sexuality, and relationships

<aside> 💎 Book club is a group of open-minded people who are curious about celebrating, exploring, and expanding their sexuality. We’ve been running for 2.5 years and have talked about SO many different things over that time period — the erotic, non-monogamy, desire, intimacy within friendship, bisexuality, asexuality, satisfaction in long-term relationships, nonsexual pleasures, and so much more.

COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

1. Confidentiality. Lessons leave, stories stay.
2. Take care of yourself. Tend to your needs throughout the meeting however you need to.
3. Don’t yuck my yum/non-judgment. Respect other people’s desires, preferences, and curiosities.
4. Assume good intent, attend to impacts.
5. All parts are welcome.
6. This is not sex therapy or a place to receive/elicit specific advice. This is a place to share from your personal experience and contribute more generalized ideas + insights.
7. Make space, take space. Be mindful of how you want to show up in the space. Are you leaving room for others to share their thoughts? Do you want to challenge yourself to speak to the group or would it feel better to just observe and listen?
8. Pleasure positivity and celebration, please!!! 🍒
