Sex scenes in movies turn me on – Yaz
In this episode of Good Girls Talk About Sex, we talk with Yaz, a 30-year-old who describes herself as half-Persian/half-European, polyamorous, and single. I wanted to interview Yaz because I recently saw her describe herself this way: “My assets include diversity (I am genderqueer, pansexual, a person of color, fat, and make under $30,000/year), a playful attitude (I am really a kid in an adult body), and a know-how of holding space for those whose voices get lost in the shuffle.” Here are some of the great moments we shared with Yaz: 6:24 – Discovering the delights of the shower and bathtub faucet 9:18 – Discovering porn and movie sex scenes 15:14 – Yaz defines gender queer, pansexual, and gender non-conforming as she experiences them 17:15 – How being fat has affected her experience of sexuality 26:18 – Her first experience of penetrative sex … and what happened when she realized she wasn’t ready 31:20 – The STARS talk (as featured in Episode 8a) 38:45 – Is it still non-consensual if we don’t say “no?” 40:55 – What Yaz looks for in a potential partner 41:35 - THE QUICK FIVE Mentioned in this episode: Sex Positive Portland – Where Yaz and I met, that provides education on sex positive topics as well as organized events in the Portland, Oregon, area Sex Positive World – The parent organization for Sex Positive Portland, with chapters around the world The STARS talk - an easy to remember acronym that will help you begin conversations leading to great, consensual sex. We did an entire episode on it and you can listen here!
