What happens when you open your marriage after 35 years and start exploring kink at 60?
In this episode of The Erotic Realm, I speak with Hawthorn a 66 year old genderqueer pagan who describes themselves as a bottom leaning switch, sensual sadist, sensation slut, and erotic exhibitionist.
We explore:
What it means to be a switch later in life
Reichian psychology, gender evolution, and spiritual kink
Defining sexual satisfaction beyond orgasm
Sensation play, demisexuality, and “talking scenes”
How erotic ritual and pagan practice intersect
Why being fully seen is the most underrated form of erotic nourishment
Plus, Hawthorn reads from one of their own erotic writings live on the show. Research Article: What is Sexual Satisfaction? Thematic Analysis of Lay People's Definitions
