[Image ID: a Twitter thread by twitter user "@ tara_chara" which reads: "i believe, very strongly, that openness about sexuality is good, that eroticism in art is good, that the sexual revolution was uncomplicatedly good, and that any queer person who pretends that their social status isn't directly pinned to their openness about sexuality is a rube."
"i don't think it's coincidental that attitudes towards public sexuality are so drastically turning at the same time abortion is overturned in the US and people like Elon Musk openly float low white birth rates as a problem. this whole reaction smacks of artificiality."
"it is abhorrent to me that open sexuality, a cultural good, an essential aspect to the full realization of human life and a building block of the status of queer people in society, has become such a bête noire in lockstep with a general, socially reactionary, political program."
"the people who think that sexuality-in-itself is revolutionary, i believe, are fooling themselves, but sexual expression is a cultural good, sexuality is a channel of human fulfillment that ought to be open, and openness about sex is a prerequisite to queer liberation generally." /.End ID]
