Because sexual variation exists, there is no universal vision of liberated sexuality. The personal is political, but what’s best for each person may be different. Liberated sexuality—that is, sexuality free from social shaming—can look like promiscuity or it can look like celibacy. And because liberated sexuality exists in many forms, there is no reason that being sexually conservative must mean being sexually repressed and no reason that being sexually conservative must prevent one’s political radicalism.
