Hello,

I have a question - what is sex positive feminism? For example, how would you describe it what is it I want to write an article on Scarleteen about why I am a sex positive feminist and I also want to explain why having not having sex does not make you a slut or a prude or whore? I am really passionate about writing this article so I would appreciate if you could help me I really would value your advice thank you.

Apologies if the question is confusing.

Hi L,

What a great question: For me a sex positive feminist is a person (male or female) who supports individual choice for all sex styles and life styles. This would include the variations such as straight, gay, bi, intersex, trans and of course self-sexuals and asexuals. Life styles would include bachelor (male or female) married (monogamous, serial monogamy, polygamy and polyamory.

And then there are those of us like myself who insist upon doing as many of the above as possible. Be sure to send me your essay that answers this important inquiry.
