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.
