I know there is no shame in talking about sexuality. But socialization throughout my life makes me hesitant, choosing indirect words that sound softer and less sexual.

​

As a person coming from a conservative East-Asian culture, I thought it was a problem unique to my upbringing. However, as I have built xxTALK, I've spoken to many womxn from different cultures and religions and sexualities that experience many of the same things I do. It surprised me how all these womxn share guilt when talking about sex, understanding their own pleasure, or even thinking about their own sexuality.

​

Our guilt and insecurities are not just about sexuality. These feelings are a reflection of an understanding of your body and yourself.

​

I, along with all of us building xxTALK, am hoping to help empower womxn to live and love confidently. Until the day we can speak about sex without any embarrassment.
