explicit permission
Explicit Permission is half educational zine / half therapeutic workbook designed to guide readers through unpacking & re-assembling the many forces that’ve influenced their relationship to their sexuality and desire.
Our enthusiastic Yeses inform consent. Clarity about what drives our desire fuels pleasurable interactions with our bodies, selves, and partners. Confidence to discard what no longer serves us unlocks us from sexual shame. Culture shifts through self-work and self-worth. Dive into it!
