Sex is inextricably linked to deeply animal psychology of dominance and submission, tribal belonging and inclusion, trauma and healing from trauma.

I plan to do a longer post explaining this but in the meantime, please link me any psychologists who have written on this topic.
Our genitals aren’t just mechanical feel-good buttons but pathways to rewire our nervous systems to a new orientation in the world.

Homosexuality, fetishes, and transgenderism can all be explained as the animal brain intuitively seeking what it needs to heal.
The widespread prevalence of these phenomenon does point to our society being collectively unwell, but that doesn’t mean they should be shamed.
The path to healing is bringing the urges out of the shadow and satisfying them, in non-destructive and non-permanent ways.

Your body generates sexual desires in the same way that you will crave fruit if you’re deficient in vitamin C.
Also the whole thing about women being more likely to be bisexual than men is totally bunk. It’s an artifact of our culture.
