Today's topic: Exploring Sexual Projects!
“Sexual Projects” is a concept coined by Dr Jennifer Hirsch & Dr Shamus Khan in their landmark text "Sexual Citizens: Sex, Power, and Assault on Campus". This concept refers to the answer to what sex is for (for example, for pleasure, to connect with another, to have children, etc.). Reflecting on your sexual projects is a way to understand what’s important to you and what’s motivating your behavior. Identifying your sexual projects can improve your confidence, give you the chance to change direction if you need to, and most importantly, start communicating with others.
