Our whole economy is set up so that we can’t survive without making ourselves, at some level, into useful functions, and yet the prospect that this makes us less human does not keep us up at night – we still recognise ourselves, and even others, as more than what we do to put bread on the table

I don’t have an answer. I want very much to believe that the separation of body and self, sexuality and personhood, is simply a hangover from neo-platonism. That I can be a woman and a person. On the other hand, I know what it is to feel used, and I know what it is to feel utterly objectified by a violent and painful experience: to feel a rupture between body and being, the sense that one’s personal self has died, leaving only a “fuck-hole” behind.

My sex drive is normal and so is yours

If you had told me when I started this blog that I would end up writing about my sex life, would I have believed you? Actually, yes!

Believe it or not, I started a blog back in uni under a pseudo name, Annie – after my middle name, which is Ann. The idea actually came from 90210 when Annie starts a sex blog under the name Annabel. And so I decided I would do something similar, writing very frankly about my sex life. Nonetheless this never came to fruition, as a 21 year old who had very little sexual experience and found the whole thing rather awkward to discuss (and still do) – the dream didn’t last long.

So why now?

So, I’m now 25 and engaged and feel slightly more confident and comfortable in this area. But honestly I just think something need to be said on this topic.
