Instead, we must refer back to our normative bodily design for our sexual identity, and then foster curiosity about the meaning of our sexual arousal templates and patterns that deviate from our design. • #sexualorientation #samesexattraction #SSA #sexualfluidity #SAFETherapy #SOCE • References (Note: clips from other videos are used for commentary and fall under Fair Use): • Lisa Diamond's TEDx Talk on the born this way argument: • Why the “born this way” argument does... • Robin Dembroff's Queer Theory definition of sexual orientation: • What is sexual orientation?
