Societal and Cultural Cock-Blocks: Finding the Levity Within the Gravity of It All with Zach Budd
Erica Leroye and Zach Budd, LMSW, consent educator and OG SCWeek participant explore sexuality, consent, and the impact of toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, and “genderless toxicity” on mental and physical health.This conversation touches on race and culture, power and powerlessness, and the impacts of societal expectations on men's health. By naming that which is often unsaid they move the conversation about “softness” from shame and isolation to sexual empowerment by:
Normalizing men talking about penises and penis health especially in minority communities. Looking at the barriers and discovering ways to circumvent them, and/or just knock them the fuck out.
Addressing healthcare discrepancies, hypersexualization, and traumas that impact sexual well-being
Discussing medication related erectile/ejaculation/arousal issues and expanding what sexual pleasure might look like for those on meds
Vulnerability can enhance intimacy in relationships. Curiosity can alleviate anxiety in sexual situations and immense pleasure can be found in non-penetrative activities
