SEX!

Let’s talk about sex.

‘Cause it’s fun.

Or, as the CAKE team phrase it, “Why is sex so great anyway? Because it feels fucking great. In this crazy world of ours the moments of sexual expression, exploration, letting go and release are the most pure sense of humanity going.”

CAKE is a New York based women’s sexuality enterprise. Formed in 2000 to give women a forum in which to express their sexuality and the importance sex plays in our everyday lives.

Whilst CAKE may be predominantly a heterosexual group, I am sure I am not the only bisexual woman to find something uplifting and inspiring from the whole CAKE philosophy:

THE CAKE PHILOSOPHY

Women like to initiate sex
We get turned on every day of the week
We are visual
We fantasize
We know how to get ourselves off
We like sex
We know how our bodies work
Sex isn’t over until we orgasm

Their website goes on to state:
We know our bodies more accurately than ever before, masturbate as a daily ritual, realize our own sexual fantasies, see orgasm as a part of intercourse, ask our partners to explore vibrators, create visual stimulation that doesn't objectify women, and demand sexual equality in the boardroom and the bedroom.

I recommend the CAKE website to ANY woman, young or old. Read this page for background.

And try to get hold of a copy of their wonderfully sex-positive book “A Piece of Cake”. (Australian readers you need to order the book from either CAKE or Amazon – maybe it’s a bit too rad for our book stores?)
