It just, it's something that we aren't taking care of ourselves and sexual pleasure is the ultimate form of self-care.

And so for that reason, it is going to lead to more self-confidence.

It is going to lead to a better sense of being able to show up in your life and be present and be

alive and have a sense of vitality that's going to serve you in every other element.

And you're right.

And I think that, you know, you've mentioned a couple times this idea that we tend to fall back on this idea of sexual pleasure as being selfish.

And I think that this is something that especially women struggle with.

Right.

Because women have been socialized, first of all, to be way more ashamed of their sexuality.

Right.

To you know, if you think about, you know, I one of the questions I I pull my students on every single quarter is, you know, do you have a pet name for your genitals?

Right.

I find that men are about three times as likely to say yes, right?

Men kind of let it all hang out there.

There's a lot more pride about their bodies.

There's a lot more sort of emphasis on the importance of pleasure.

But for women, right, we're taught to feel ashamed, right?

We don't even often use the proper language to describe it.

And the clitoris, for example, which is the main source of sexual pleasure, we didn't even have a full mapping of the internal and external structures of the clitoris until 2006, Drew.

I mean, and the clitoris, the sole purpose of the clitoris is female sexual pleasure.
