You may be wondering Hump Day...Wonderfully Sexual Wednesdays...What is this all about? I'm so glad you asked. Remember...this is a new week and a new day!! Every Hump Day, we will be exploring topics surrounding human sexuality.
The contextual framework for our discussions on Wonderfully Sexual Wednesdays is adapted from Life Planning Education created by Advocates for Youth, which is located in Washington, DC. Dennis M. Dailey, Professor Emeritus, University of Kansas, derived the five circles of sexuality based on the initial work of Harvey Gochros.
We are mental beings, emotional beings, physical beings, social beings, and spiritual beings; similarly, we are sexual beings. And yes, there are five circles or aspects to our sexuality. Oftentimes, we confuse sex and intimacy or we identify our sexuality based on our sexual behaviors. In other words, we view our sexuality from a narrow scope. Let's enlarge our mental territory and embrace our sexuality in its totality.
The five circles of our sexuality are:
Sensuality
Intimacy
Sexual Identity
Sexual Health and Reproduction
Sexualization
Did you know that you even had five circles to your sexuality? Now that you are enlightened to the five circles, I want us to look forward to our purposeful discussions about this topic to gain a broader scope and deeper understanding of our sexuality. Please note that every aspect of our beings has a purpose and an intent. Let's get back to the intentionality of our sexuality and make it wonderful!!
What are your thoughts? Comment on them.
Why?
