SO much to digest here. I need a nap. Then I'll start googling. Then I'll probably need another nap.

The celibacy bit is the first tributary I want to paddle down. There is so much to unpack here, but I just can't get past how the whole idea reduces women's value to sex. As if it is our core currency and source of power. I can't reconcile that with my own lived experience or my ideals. However, I also have to acknowledge it might be so jarring because it's true.

I know. It’s been bugging me for ages now. There seems to be an accumulation of this, from the 4b movement in South Korea to famous women declaring a no sex policy for themselves and now I see it catch on too on social media and platforms like Reddit. It will take more brain space than I have right now to dig deep and figure some stuff out. Let me know your thoughts. Happy napping first. 🙏
