Yes means nothing, if no isn’t an option.
This has been a prominent part of my relationship, consent being at the very heart of all decisions in and out of the bedroom. Sex is a power exchange, not a siphon used to drain the life from one person to the next. A kiss doesn’t feel better from resistant lips & A body on my list isn’t more important than her feeling safe when I lay between her hips. “No” means everything, when I know “yes” was taken from her before. “No” means I need your arms around me a little while more. “No” means for just a moment remind me that I am more than my body. “No” is a chance for calm reassurance, an opportunity for intimacy on a level that leaves this world behind and melds us together long past when our bodies won’t function like bunnies in spring. I want to plant seeds that will hold us throughout winter. To hold her on porch swings we can barely get out of, ending our days joking about how we used to think our bones were brittle in our twenties and oh, if only we could see us now. She is more than her looks though she is my muse in every meaning of the word, my only expectation is that I’ll love her until our souls leave this world.
