About This Quote
Sex-positive feminism embraces the entire range of human sexuality and is based on the idea that sexual freedom is an essential component of women's freedom. The first thing to know about sex-positivity is that it does not refer to promiscuity. In fact, activists argue that the idea of sex-positivity is a misnomer. Promiscuity is a negative term, used by conservative forces in the world to describe the sexuality of a person who engages in a lot of casual sex with partners who are often anonymous. Sex-positive feminism is about respect for all forms of sexuality and for individual choices regarding sex, marriage, family, and intimacy with partners.
