The idea of '...Alright, I'll take the bait.<br /><br />The idea of 'sex-nonjudgementalism' v 'sex-positivism' would be a useful framework within which to discuss 'interfaith' v 'transfaith', because it brings out a cause of the problem that is often undervalued- many people who get a lot of positive things out of sex/religion and see people they know getting the same positive things assume that everyone must be able to access those same things, that sex/religion can be positive for everyone. The problem isn't deliberate uninclusive terms, the problem is the lack of awareness that we exist as people who could be unincluded. Therefore we need to look for words like 'sex-nonjudgemental' for religion, which stress inclusion of negative identities as well as positives. Words like 'transfaith', 'secular'.<br /><br />On the other hand, the usefulness of the comparison is limited by the fact that interfaith is subconciously 'religion-positive', while sex-positivity can be overtly and agressively sex-positive, therefore ways of dealing with them will be different.SlightlyMetaphysicalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17891271827553008521noreply@blogger.com
