TARSHI’s platform featuring writing on sexuality: We work towards cultivating safe, inclusive, and self-affirming spaces in which all individuals can express themselves without fear, judgement or shame.
Language can be a limiting thing when it alone is considered to be the marker of success or failure in intimate spaces. Sometimes we get stuck on what is said and fail to notice what is done in relationships. At other times, denial of a need, request, or crossing of one boundary can make us feel like the entire relationship has lost its value.
As a queer-feminist mental health practitioner, my way to understand realities is to examine the power relations that exist in our social locations, identities and structures.
