Condom bible bombing, sex toy recycling and rope shopping can all be acts of sexual citizenship. It may not occur to you when you are getting sexy, but there are things you can do to help the future of fucking. It’s like sexual composting! Ah wait, I’m not explaining it right… Sex educator, Midori, teaches how to not only be sex-positive, but act sex-positive.
One suggestion:
When the clerk at the hardware store, mountaineering or marine supply shop asks what you need the rope for, say nicely, “For a little bedroom adventure and fun.” Make sure to be sweet, short and matter-of-fact about it.
