Cafe Pyala: How Not To Write About Sex in Pakistan
// December 18th, 2009 // Pakistan
A witty review and refreshingly opinionated write-up on the sometimes peculiar coverage of sex in the main stream Pakistani media. a shame, considering we are also the land of the joey capsule..
“In order to transform the dominant paradigms of relationships in our lives, based primarily on manipulation, power and control, I feel a stark need for us to connect to sources of power within ourselves, most potently through opening up to our own sexuality. We need, as men and women, to connect to our sexuality in a more loving, nurturing and non-dominant manner, seeing it as a sharing, as opposed to a conquering, and seeing women’s engagement with their sexuality not as shameful an attitude that many women themselves internalize but as natural, exuberant, joyful and a cause for mutual celebration! In this way, we may start to feel more power over our own lives, and can become actively loving participants in all of our relationships, sexual and non-sexual alike.”
You lost me at paradigms Naila.
