Description
Most of us grew up feeling like our worthiness, our virtue, and our ability to be loved hinged on whether or not we were obeying certain rules or keeping commandments. When you break a rule or disobey a commandment, it can leave an irremovable stain on your character. Principles, on the other hand, are "a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning." They should be at the root of the "rules" we live by. Last week, we introduced the Six Principles of Sexual Health: • Honesty • Shared Values • Consent • Pleasure • Protection from STI's and Unwanted Pregnancy • Non-Exploitation This week we are going to talk about how these principles fit into our morals, and rules. We'll explore how these principles can elevate the conversation beyond mere rule-following... How they can become a roadmap for breaking the chains of shame... Developing true connection with yourself and your partner... Talking to your children about sex and porn... And ultimately, developing sexual health.
