Here is a stream-of-consciousness list of what defines it for us. Add your own thoughts in the comments!
Sex Positive Means:
- sex is healthy and pleasure is good for you
- getting away from fear, and building towards empowerment in your sex life
- talking about subjects that are typically taboo
- teaching comprehensive safer sex without fear that education causes infection (quite the contrary)
- having an open mind to a variety of desires and sexual activities
- if everybody's consenting and happy, what someone's doing isn't morally wrong
- all our bodies are normal and different
- there are (almost) no wrong answers in sexual exploration, just trial and error
- like anything you care about or want to be good at, study it! Read, experiment and talk about sex
- there is no shame in having desires or seeking pleasure
- loving someone of the same gender is ok
- changing your mind about your sexual identity throughout your life is ok
- sexual identity and desire can be fluid
- gender identity can be fluid
- masturbation is safe, healthy sex
- sex toys are fun, labor-saving devices that can enhance any sexual activity
- you are beautiful
