This framing is so powerful! "genital preferences" as a concept which equates certain anatomical structures with a limited set of sexual acts is inherently heterocissexist. And also why it's gross when cis people project their "preference" for this or that anatomical configuration. When we conceive of sex as a realm of endless possibilities for connection, we give ourselves the agency to name the things we want or don't want, and the ability to hear 'yes'/'no'/'maybe' with equal grace and understanding. Thank you!

Oh my fuckin god THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! As a queer & sex positive human and therapist, this touches on the intersections of various topics my clients (and honestly my friends, partners, and my own thoughts) bring up! Damn, Devon, you are TRULY one of the boldest and most important writers in my scope of awareness. Thank you for your words on things many would leave leave unspoken or even unexplored! 💓
