Sex as Shame💋😞💋
I constantly address the bullshit shame we have around sex. Though another problem, on the opposite extreme is using sex itself as shame. This is equally as bad and has only caused sex to become a societal weapon of approval, particularly on the masculine side.

2. Sex is often considered as a right of passage, particularly amongst men, and if you haven't had it yet by a certain time frame, than there must be something wrong with you. This kind of societal expectation only causes people to run with empty hearts into sex.

3. I am no sexual puritan by any means. I say consenting adults can do whatever the fuck they want, not my place to judge. That said I do not believe having sex just to have it, so you can wear it as a badge of acceptance, is good for the soul.

4. I believe sex is best served with some form of genuine love and joy, or at least healing. Hell, that could even be a best friend with benefits lol. Just some kind of genuine connection based not on oh I have to do the sex to earn my place in society or to be a "normal" person.

5. This approach is pure peer pressure and shaming all the same. And despite my virgin hood I have sincerely never felt like running off somewhere just so I can say I lost my virginity. There is no shame in being a virgin, nor is there any shame in not being a virgin.

6. Sex should be something that you consciously and responsibly, without peer pressure, decide to do out of genuine love and joy from your heart, regardless of what moral system you personally subscribe to. Neither will pressured and/or disconnected sex solve any real problems.

7. If it did our society would be a hell of a lot healthier than it is today. In fact, it would be better to just stay home and self pleasure rather than run half hazard into situations out of peer pressure.

8. That said, one should be cautious not to over isolate, or to become withdrawn in sexual self pity. This can lead to dangerous mindsets like that of the Incel, that internalize their virginity into disgusts and hatred towards women.

9. It really is rather terrible that both sex and virginity has become weaponized and used as tools for social manipulation, gender warfare, and bullying. This is not ok and only perpetuates our deeply rooted sexual wounding.

10. Sex and Virginity is sacred, not in the fake "purity" religious bullshit kind of way, but in the way that it is a part of you! It should be YOU that decides when and how you loose it or get it, not your society, your preacher or your "friends" simply YOU and your heart.💋🥰💋

Punishing Pleasure💋💥👏
I feel one reason there is so much shame around self pleasure is because many of us were brainwashed to fear punishment from experiencing sexual Joy. Thus we make up these bullshit ideas that you will loose lifeforce, go blind, become a deviant and so on.

2. This is all based on the religious shame many of us grew up experiencing. We were taught that sex in general was pretty much a sin of lust, and so I believe many subconsciously carry this shame that gets morphed into "science" that says self pleasure is somehow dangerous.

3. Self pleasure is not dangerous, what is dangerous though is repressing your natural God given sexual energy. Do not punish yourself because you take pleasure from sex, it's normal. The important thing is to be conscious from your Heart and never to harm anyone.

@RationalImpact

Hello Twitter fam! You all know me as @RationalImpact but my real name is actually Nathaniel Scherer, though I go by Nate. I've never hid my name, but I got feeling like it was time to put my real name to my full work without shame and in complete acceptance of all that I am.

2. I've struggled with shame over every part of who I am, even within the spiritual world. It's not everyday that a shy gamer gets a calling to go in front of the world and talk about things like spiritual sexuality! I'll be blunt, I sometimes still feel out of place.

3. I'm an odd one here no doubt. I know I belong and I've been so lovingly accepted here, but it's a real challenge when frankly your whole life was in extracting the light within the denser parts of the matrix few wished to go but many love to judge.

Shift to Center➡️⬇️⬅️
I've been noticing that the spiritual world in general struggles to have a balanced center. There are many extremes of either love and light, everything is fucked, aliens everywhere, aliens no where, all plan all the time, no plan hold the popcorn and so on.

2. I tend to find my self adrift amongst several parts of the spiritual community and in truth we are all on the same race track but I feel we are riding the edges of extremes, often on the verge of wiping out. Some are to busy staring at the sky and others the asphalt.

3. We don't want to stare at the sky or the ground only, we need to look straight ahead and keep our steering steady, able to see and navigate the winding track of awakening.

Awakened Anonymous✍️👁️🛌
Are you disillusioned, down, doubtful of the plan, second coming, solar flash? Than welcome to AA, lets vent, regroup, refocus and get moving forward again!

2. Lets face it, the plan didn't go how we planned it, the second coming got held up in traffic, and the solar flash hasn't swept us away yet. Many of us are feeling burnt out, hopeless and lost as the world only gets crazier while we hold the burden of wakefulness.

3. Though in truth, none of these narratives are panaceas to this pantomime. Instead they should be supportive structures that are held up by the inner work of our own foundation. All outside saving graces can only be as good and effective as we are able to hold from within!

Rabbit Hole or Hell Hole?🐇🕳️VS👹🕳️
Honestly, many fall into a hell hole when they think they are falling into the rabbit hole. The rabbit hole eventually leads you back out into your newly awakened life, with a positive outlook, while the hell hole mimics the rabbit hole.

2. The hell hole traps you in an energy draining loop and negative outlook that gets you lost in an endless labyrinth. This hell hole halts peoples spiritual growth and is designed to be a poisonous red pill, instead of the authentic red pill.

3. This is where many get lost waiting for a savior, plan or solar flash, while doing no inner work. It keeps many who would otherwise shine their own light into the world, creating genuine ascension faster, trapped in the pits of hell as their light is simply absorbed.

Throw Out Tantric Sex🗑️💋👋
Ok, admittingly a loaded title on purpose. Tantric Sex and Tantra in general is a wonderful concept, as its all about being more conscious and self aware. However, I find that due to shame around sex, Tantric ideas have become to cold and calculated.🤖

2. I find that Tantric concepts often fall to deeply into the mind/third eye obsessed part of spirituality that often seeks to escape embodiment. Thus, what should be about becoming more spiritually embodied turns into just more spiritual escapism from our physical sexual nature.

3. It becomes all about using sex to ascend to higher planes. That would be great, if it still grounded into the psychical plane as well. This creates a system of ungrounded rules that still sees sex as dirty, or to primal, only being accepted within some kind of spiritual dogma.
