How to be and feel Sexually Empowered!

 

Feeling sexually empowered means feeling confident and comfortable with one's sexual desires, preferences, boundaries, and decisions. Here are some tips on how to feel more sexually empowered:

1. Recognize Your Desires and Needs: Take time to understand and recognize what turns you on, what makes you feel good, and what your sexual boundaries are. Do not be afraid to communicate your needs to your partner(s) and prioritize your own pleasure.

2. Set Boundaries: Setting clear boundaries is essential for feeling sexually empowered and safe. Communicate your boundaries clearly and assertively, respect other people's boundaries, and ensure any sexual activity is 100% consensual.

3. Learn about Your Body: Explore yourself and learn about your body on your own terms. Try new things, research on new methods, and communicate with your partner(s) what specifically brings you pleasure during sexual activity.

4. Focus on Sexual Health: Taking care of your sexual health is empowering. Consult with healthcare providers, whether a doctor or therapist, for resourceful information and learn how to practice safer sex, get regular check-ups, and address any concerns without feeling shame.

5. Reject Shame and Guilt: Reject the idea that sexual desires are bad, dirty, or shameful. Instead, embrace your sexuality without feeling guilty or ashamed.

6. Establish Healthy Relationship with Yourself and Others: Prioritize healthy relationships built on trust, mutual respect, communication, and safety. Establish relationships that allow you to feel seen and heard while feeling confident to always communicate without fear of judgement.

7. Educate Yourself on Your Rights: Familiarize Yourself with your Human Rights, and understand what from a legal point of view is deemed violation of one's rights, this can go a long way in helping you make informed decisions about your own sexuality.

Remember, feeling sexually empowered comes from within. It is a journey and a process that requires self-awareness, self-love, and self-care.
