I would love to direct your attention to an amazing project by Shilo McCabe, the artist behind the Sex Positive Photo Project. Every day for the entire month of May, she plans to post a photo of a different person masturbating, paired with their thoughts about the activity. I had the pleasure (and I do mean pleasure) to be one of her subjects — that will be coming up later this month.
I don’t know about you, but I will be checking her site daily!
Let me leave you with her words… taken (with permission) from a great article about the project on the Good Vibrations blog.
Masturbation is natural. It can be a vehicle to explore our spiritual selves, and a soothing balm for many ills. Masturbation is part of a healthy lifestyle and great therapy! It is an intimate and powerful way to show yourself unconditional love. Loving yourself is a way to reinforce the idea that you are worthy of love and is a way to remind you that you are capable of loving others.
As a part of The Sex Positive Photo Project I want to celebrate National Masturbation Month with a daily photo gallery of people masturbating, along with some text from them that completes the statement “I masturbate…”.The idea is to create a sex-positive celebration of masturbation for the entire month of May.
