AES – An Ethical Slut…(wanna-be!),
Is an Australian male whom over the course of a life lived has found human sexuality to be equal parts intoxicating and utterly challenging.
Ever since a note was dropped in my school bag by three school girls at age 13 saying they liked me I was hooked on sexuality and everything that makes it what it is.
And so at or very close to that point in 1982/83, I started on the journey that continues to this day largely now via this blog.
It will end one day, but in the interim I intend to enjoy the ride for as long as I can and learn and be the best I can be on this divisive (and sadly) poorly discussed and debated subject.
In an effort to encourage said discussion about 10 years ago I had a go at trying to form a local group with polyamory discussion at its core but found group management to be difficult and with poly so shiny and new in Australia (and the world generally) and with no real direction in mind other than discussion it folded pretty quickly.
That was a difficult time for me because The Ethical Slut book had just hit me smack in the chops saying ” This is a genius no-brainer of a way to live your best sexual life ” but bridging that gap, one to this day (Dec 2022) that is still massively stoned on patriarchy was a bridge too far for the idealist who writes in these pages.
But hey, that is all water under the bridge now.
One person I need to acknowledge whom I never really have (and I regret that) is a lady who calls herself AJ Ruby.
She was the first group member and pitched in where others wouldn’t or like me somewhat (didn’t know how to respectfully) and I never did thank her, so AJ wherever you are now…Cheers lady.
Anyhoo, if human sexuality and the relationships, trysts, crushes etc. in which it resides interests you like it does me, then please read on.
Because I genuinely hope there is something in this blog that excites a neuron or three and pushes you onwards to read more and through that reading, learning, talking and putting into practice even a modicum of the now masses of great information out there now, maybe we will all get better at sexuality.
And just maybe, through all those many individual journeys we might even solve for good some of the current crop of problems (that to date) are really well overdue for a solution or just need to have some sunlight shone on them to encourage further discussion.
Cheers
