Every Gaze I Have Is Flawed

I want to understand sexuality in a way that is transferrable, so that the information I gather has the ability to be cohesively articulated to another. I don’t suppose that I have the answers to our most puzzling questions on sexuality. I am peering through different windows, asking questions and relaying what I am seeing. No matter how I see, I will always lack all the vantage points. We all do. Everything I attempt to do in this world will be flawed and every view I have toward it, lacks full understanding.

From what I have seen and experienced, sexuality is present in almost every facet of our lived experience. We are sexual beings and cannot surgically excise this feature from our person. It’s in the way we eat, the way we converse, how we move, what we do, how we speak…it is seemingly omnipresent. This conception of sexuality has widened my gaze and yet, without the help of others, I will always see less. And no matter how much I see, it will never be a full view.

I believe the acceptance of that reality, our flawed gaze, will free us to see further.
