A review by hellolauren
Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good by adrienne maree brown

Did not finish book. Stopped at 33%.
She references One Taste — a sexually exploitative cult investigated by the FBI for sex trafficking and labor violations — as a source of wisdom for her orgasmic meditation practice. While she does acknowledge in the footnotes that the group/location are a source of harm, she encourages the reader only to “come to your own conclusions, as with everything else”. To me, this read as dismissive of the sexually violent and abusive nature of the cult in service of her making a point about her own sexual satisfaction.
