Episode 44: Know Your Self & Speak it. Sexual Honesty Sets U Free! Eve Eurydice w actor Haaz Sleiman - a podcast by Eve Eurydice

Eve Eurydice speaks sex with Haaz Sleiman, the first Muslim gay actor in mainstream Hollywood, who starred in movies like @TheVisitor, @TheState, Of Kings & Prophets, & TV series like @NurseJackie, @ER, @Nikita, @24, @NCIS, & is in the next @Marvel Superhero film w Angelina Jolie & Salma Hayek. His powerful coming out video (‘I’m gay & a total bottom & if you mess with me, I’ll kill you!’ ) is a must see! Haaz grew up gay in the United Arab Emirates & in Lebanon during the civil war & the Syrian occupation. We talk about our feminine & masculine sides & whether they clash or coexist, the eyes of love & the fullness of being human; about gay bars, lesbians & trans, Fetish lifestylers, introverts & extroverts, people who are genuine & posers, gender blind & non binary people, the male gaze vs the female gaze in patriarchy. We talk about the self-repression of gay men, same kink over variety, bottom shaming, the great injustice that prevents men from wearing make up dresses skirts wigs & acting emotional, & the greater injustice that equates our self-respect to what we do in bed. We talk about the acting profession & the suspicion that actors are good liars, & the vast empowerment of coming out because being honest about our sexuality isn’t slutty or shameful but life-changingly powerful. We discuss his interview w the Advocate when he falsely claimed he was straight because of the prevalent definitions of manhood that confuse what we do in the bedroom with how we conduct ourselves in daily life. We are all unique, nuanced & sophisticated sexually. When we live in a toxic culture, we don’t have the words to recognize & describe our truth. We must step out of the nonstop propaganda to understand it & ourselves. Empathy & sensitivity make for good sex. Part of our job when we are being sexual with other people is to proselytize them to being free! Because we need help from each other in our sexual healing & in our letting go of our fears—& of our cliche, mean, indoctrinated moral judgments. Sex gets us out of our heads which are colonized by the dominant culture & out of our public calculating selves. That is where our healing happens. That’s where speaking Sex comes in. Speaking Sex makes the moments of freedom real. Help each other speak sex, & then use that to be freer in everything else. Sex expands us & opens us & raises our vibration. Most daily life constructs & tightens us & makes us aggressive, paranoid, stale, rigid, self-protective, & brainwashed. Sex makes us wanna live this life. Sex makes life worth living. There’s no other way to undo our mass repression but to speak about this & spread the word! Speak Sex, you all! ?? Want to learn How to Speak Sex? Want to Practice Honest Conscious Sex?
