Orgasmic ecology manifesto: how can our subversive sexualities fuel an ecofeminist revolution?
After a 30-minute presentation to highlight the links between nature and queer pleasure, we will discuss and reflect together on how we can create our own proud, rustic, queer utopia. We will write down our craziest ideas and create a sapphic and ecofeminist manifesto together!
Lesbian penguins, pansexual bonobos, plants that go from male to female, flowers that masturbate: the biological sciences are full of examples that challenge heteronormativity. Psychiatry and LGBTQ+phobic discourses argue that queer people are against nature, that our sexuality goes against the ultimate and instinctive purpose of reproduction. What a pity for those thousands of poor white cis men's sperm that ran off into a napkin. Yes, we really don't want them. Our sexualities are destructive because they do not reproduce; they exist only for our pleasure and are completely natural. Patriarchal heterosexuality is an unembodied sexuality, influenced by pornography in which women are fetishised and objectified. This anthropocentric system contradicts the natural eroticism of our bodies. In the context of the climate crisis that threatens our existence, it is essential to reclaim the rural areas from which we have been displaced as queer individuals, and to return our pleasure to its proper place: nature. So let's grow body hair, let's sniff sweaty armpits, let's roll naked in the fields, let's lick the dripping honey from the cunts. Let us orgasm with the trees, the birds and the mud, let our orgasms shake the earth. Let us fill the world with our Sapphic, rustic utopias that live in harmony with the Earth and respect the rights of human and non-human beings.
