Your practical, no BS guide to non-monogamy.

Everybody’s journey with their self-identity loo

Everybody’s journey with their self-identity looks different. My gender identity was closely tied to figuring out my bisexuality. It took me so long even to consider the fact that I could be bisexual because I really liked boys! But I also liked girls and folks of other genders. It took me a while to accept that I actually was bisexual and not “faking it.”
ㅤ
Once I figured that out, I started to realize that I still didn’t feel like I was truly myself. I didn’t 100% agree with my gender, but again, I had this moment of imposter syndrome since I wasn’t androgynous, and there were days when I felt more feminine or masculine.
ㅤ
If you’d like to hear more about my journey with my gender identity, watch my newest video using the lincoln my bio.

One of my favorite ways to outwardly express my identity is through colorful hair! Here are a few of my last few styles!

@heartzilla_love always nails the look I'm going for! You won't regret visiting their salon if you're in the San Fran area. What colors should I choose next?

I love helping and encouraging people to embrace t

I love helping and encouraging people to embrace their kinky selves and explore different types of play and seggs that change their lives! No matter what dynamic or play you want to engage in, you need to trust your partner to fully support you and remember that you are still in ownership of yourself. If you find that your partner is trying to make decisions or control you in a way that hasn't been clearly negotiated prior to play, you need to press the pause button and have a conversation with your partner.
ㅤ
For kink and BDSM to be ethical and safe, all aspects of the relationship need to be agreed upon by all participating parties so you can fully enjoy the experience! Great seggs can change the world, but it all starts with open communication and enthusiastic consent! 💜

Ending a relationship is rarely easy, but the trut

Ending a relationship is rarely easy, but the truth is that it's a part of life. And it's OKAY to break up with people. A relationship can end for any number of reasons. It might be that you are not right for each other or that the timing in your life isn't right.
ㅤ
If something isn't working, acknowledge it! If there's something you can do to work it out, then that's great! If not, you can part on good terms and hold love for each other rather than hate each other. Ending a relationship is not a failure for you or the other person. Sometimes, it's the healthiest choice for you both.

If you’re unfamiliar with the terms non-binary o

If you’re unfamiliar with the terms non-binary or agender, you might think they sound interchangeable. The truth is that they are very different identifying labels. While there may be some overlap between the two, as non-binary is often a larger umbrella term, that isn’t always the case.
ㅤ
Remember, it’s always important to respect someone’s identity and use the labels and pronouns that best fit their individual experience rather than trying to keep everything organized into rigid boxes.
ㅤ
If you want to learn more about these identities and how they can be differentiated, watch my latest video using the lincoln my bio. 💜
