PLEASURE RESOURCES

Because we ALL have the right to a life full of pleasure.

Why has pleasure become become a dirty word in our culture? Why are men expected to seek it out while women are taught they exist for the pleasure of men? It's time we all start questioning these archaic paradigms. We deserve to feel pleasure and we have no obligation to the puritanical patriarchy who tells us otherwise. It's time to rise up and demand what has always been our right: pleasure in all forms.  Let's get started.
