Mouth Wide Shut: Sexual Politics & Understanding Emotional Abuse
“Over 90% of sexual assaults are done by someone you know.”
Mouth Wide Shut introduces the beautiful soul that is Ellie, founder of @iwanttoshag ... a sexual revolution ‼️ I was lucky enough to sit down with Ellie and learn about the importance of being educated about sexual health and sexual politics. Ellie & I discuss how to spot emotionally abusive relationships; exploring the boundaries between cruelty & love, as well as bringing attention to the fact that sexual assault IS HAPPENING & we MUST be more AWARE‼️ Ellie also opened up about her own personal anxieties, how hard anxiety is to understand/even explain, and what she does in order to OWN and manage it. Talking & painting with Ellie was honestly one of the most interesting and eye-opening afternoons I’ve had in a long time. There is so much that we don’t know enough about around topics of sex, consent & manipulation...and it is so important to be aware and know that your body is yours, your mind is yours & you are allowed to do whatever you want in order to keep it that way! There is so much support out there all you need to do is ask...I hope that watching this short video will provide some kind of support to anyone who can relate & encourage you that you aren’t alone in this...as I always say 💋🤗🌈☀️
