Pussy Power is on the Move

I will fully admit that I’m the type of woman that carries crystals around with her to protect my energy. While I am a scientific thinker, I was also raised to have faith and while I no longer subscribe to that particular type of faith anymore, I do believe that we’re all surrounded by “vibes” and energy. We give and we take from the universe and we are punished or rewarded (or neither) for our actions.

Whatever. Laugh if you’d like…it’s my spiritual journey and if I want to fuck myself with some dildos made of jade and rose quartz, I’m going to do it.

I don’t subscribe to everything that Gwyneth Paltrow and her website Goop have to say. In fact, most of the stuff that they write about is outside of my mind’s comfort zone. I’m not doing juice fasts or getting crazy with psychics or anything. She recently did an interview with InStyle Magazine talking about Pussy Power though, and I am definitely here for that.

Gwyneth released a candle that smelled like her vagina a few years back and people went crazy for it. Part of that whole schtick was to normalize having conversations about pussies. It certainly got the whole internet talking, that’s for sure.

In the interview, she talks about how the Cardi B/Megan Thee Stallion song WAP is helping that journey along. We can celebrate our bodies and discuss them without feeling ashamed. Our sex, gender and sexuality are all very different parts of ourselves and everyone should be able to freely discuss any or all of those bits.

Vagina having people have been repressed for so long that some of us have forgotten to celebrate every inch of our bodies. We have every right to touch ourselves and have conversations about how all of that feels. When songs like WAP are played everywhere, it tells the patriarchy to fuck the hell off and empowers us even more.

Gwyneth is quoted in the article below as saying:

It’s all part of the crumbling patriarchy and I think that we’re all changing it by releasing, like, a punk rock, feminist candle and Cardi B is changing it by her incredible lyrical prowess. You have to push, you have to go too far. You have to have a ‘WAP’ song or a ‘Smells Like My Vagina’ candle. So people are like, ‘What is this?’ And they freak out. And then the center moves a little bit more this way. It’s a process that happens over time.

Yeah, for real. Pussy power for life, Peepz. It’s what makes the world go round.
