Episode 82 The Nuanced Implications of Sexual Freedom
Can sexual liberation truly be empowering if we overlook its consequences? In this episode I begin to unravel the complexities of modern feminism and the pivotal concept of choice for women.
Through the lens of popular culture phenomena like "Sex and the City," I delve into the nuanced implications of sexual freedom, emphasising the importance of understanding the potential health risks and responsibilities that come with our choices. This episode is a thoughtful exploration aimed at empowering women to make informed decisions that resonate with their personal values and long-term well-being.

The Beat of Nature
Hello and welcome to the Wellness Connection podcast with Fiona Cain. I'm your host, fiona Cain. Today I would like to talk a little bit about some of what feminism has brought about and negative things. Don't get me wrong. Feminism is an interesting topic because there's going to be a health aspect of this. By the way, this is really not about politics at all. Look, feminism. There's been different waves of feminism and I certainly do appreciate the ladies who've come before me who fought for a lot of the freedoms I have today, so I'm not kind of going anti the idea of some parts of feminism. However, I just want to talk about some of the like a lot of things.
Speaker 1:We sometimes go too far one way or we only see one thing as being right, when I actually think that one of the great things about being a modern woman and having all of the opportunities we have is that we have choice, and I think that's what I want to talk about more than anything that we have choice about what we want our lives to look like. And it's weird because we didn't have choice at one time, or we had limited choices, and now we've got lots of choice, but I feel like we're being a lot of us are being funneled down one choice and saying, oh, that's the only way you can go. So that's the sort of stuff I want to talk about. It might sound a bit confusing, but anyway, that's. You'll get what I mean when I get started. So you know some of the things that you know, because I was a teenager in the 80s and it was certainly very much a kind of you know, you're going to be an independent woman and you're going to an independent woman is also sexually liberated and independent and all that jazz. And I think it is sold to us as the thing that everyone wants to do or the thing that everyone should do, like the whole, like I've watched Sex and the City over the years and, look, it's kind of, you know, fun to watch, but a lot of what happens in it might suit some people and not others. And just clarify too before I continue this isn't really a morals discussion. Look, your morals are your own business and your religion is your own business as well. I'm just generally talking more about we have choices and we just have to understand that choices have consequences. I think we're being sold a bill of goods that says there's no consequences for certain things and there are, and kind of just exploring that, really not sort of doing the whole moral, righteous thing. I I'm not in a place to do that. I certainly have made my mistakes in my life and done some things that I regret and um, made choices and whatever. So that's what I wanted to talk about.
Speaker 1:So you know, the first thing is that, like I said, the whole sex in the city thing. We are kind of encouraged to have this sort of sexual freedom and while in some ways that's a good thing, it certainly is a good thing when I read books and novels from back in the day and I don't know what it was like, but if I base it on the books I read women weren't really even allowed to enjoy sex, it would seem. In some places, in some areas, actually some places in the world. Today it's still the same, since women are having female genital mutilation. That's a whole other topic, I suppose. So it still is a problem in the world. So it is good that women are allowed to be sexually powerful or sexually uninhibited in that way that we can make our own choices. So it's a good thing that we can make our own choices and it's interesting because when I was younger, if you had had a sex tape come out or something like that, you were shamed. This was nothing good was going to come out of that, right, but in my lifetime, what I've seen is that change, and like people like Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian who, I suspect, both probably deliberately released their sex tapes and made them famous and gave them a whole career so you know that things have changed in that time. Do I think it's a good way to get fame? No, I personally don't.
Speaker 1:Whatever, ultimately, though, it does cost you. There's a cost to it, and that's sort of what I wanted to talk about. So the whole sort of sexual liberation thing you can be with whoever you want to be, and all of that yes, you can, but there is a cost and you have to understand that. So, first of all, there's the cost of health and sexual health. So we do have to have an awareness around those things, and a lot of people you know they just sort of they will go on the pill or something like that, but they won't be using condoms or other things, and there is still a lot of sexually transmissible infections that you can get. That can be very challenging. Some can be challenging lifelong.
Speaker 1:So, while you can be free and everything, you still have to consider these things. You have to understand this. You have to understand your sexual health. You have to get checked regularly by a doctor, you have to know what to look for, you have to have conversations with your sexual partner. So the first thing is you have to take that seriously. It really is serious and you have to take it seriously. And that stuff still exists. Whether or not we're sexually free or not, that stuff still exists, whether or not we're sexually free or not.
Speaker 1:So that's one thing. Oh, I just noticed I moved out my little guys for something I did on TV the other day and I'll have to bring them back. My heart and brain and what's the other one? Irritable bowel. I just realized my backdrop looked different. Oh, I'll bring them back, don't worry. So we have to have an awareness around sexual health and the cost and is there is a cost and we have to be aware of that. So that's one thing that people I find don't really seem to take as seriously as I think that we should.
Speaker 1:So that's one aspect. The other aspect is pregnancy is the risk of pregnancy and understanding. I think it's a good idea myself personally, and this probably is a moral thing it's my choice, I suppose but I think it's a good idea not to have sex with someone that you wouldn't be willing to have a child with, and I think, if that's kind of where you're at, that's probably a good thing. Other people will disagree with me, and that might work for them and more power to you as well. So just, obviously, you just do what works for you, but you do have to consider you know, if you're sexually active, you might get pregnant. If you do get pregnant, what are you going to do about that? What does that look like? What are your choices around that? And that will affect you as well. So what I do know is that you know, now that we have our sexual freedom, there's a lot more people choosing to not have babies when they do get pregnant, and, again, I think people need to do what is right for them, and so I'm open to that that people make the decisions.
Speaker 1:What I find, though, is, I think, that sometimes people don't understand the consequences of those choices. So I'm not talking about the consequences of, I'm not talking about the moral stuff, or talking about whether or not it's right to abort a child or anything like that. Again, that's sort of a different conversation to the one I'm having. But what? And it may or may be to you, you might have really strong opinions about that, and again, that's fine. We all have to use our own moral compass with those things.
Speaker 1:What I'm talking about more is that I think that people are told that it's simpler than it is or they're lied to about these things. So I have talked to people who have chosen to go ahead with those procedures and have very much regretted it and were told that it's just a clump of cells and later on realized it was a whole lot more formed than what they realized it was, or told that they wouldn't regret it. And they really did deeply regret it. And that can happen. That definitely does happen. It happens to a lot of women, is it? And that can happen. That definitely does happen. It happens to a lot of women. Is it all women? Probably not. There must be some that don't. Again, it's not.
Speaker 1:I know this is tricky. It's a real tricky topic I'm talking about, but I'm not trying to moralize on it. I'm just trying to encourage people to think about it in conversations about it, or just with themselves, think about it and conversations about it, or just with themselves, think about for themselves because it is important, and I think that we, we kind of are if you get pregnant, it's all right, get rid of it, and while that might be true, uh, in a practical sense there's still a cost to it and it could be also a cost with uh. You know your own health because there are dangers associated with different procedures and even morning after pills and things like that, and you know there could be issues with any of those procedures, like there's complications. So some women have infertility from it, some women have infections and pass away and some women have various other away and some women have various other complications and many women don't. So just saying it's just like it's not, none of it is without potential costs.
Speaker 1:Everything in life, every choice we make, there's costs and benefits and I feel like we're kind of oh, it's free and easy and you can do what you like, and it's not as simple as that is all I'm really trying to say in this. It's not as simple as that and we have to understand that when we make choices, when you make a choice to be sexually active. It's not simple and there's a lot of things that you don't realize that you're going to contend with, that you're going to have to contend with those things that we're told that we won't care or it won't bother us or whatever. I find with a lot of people it really does. And again, no judgment around it. Just you have to know that because we're not told that we're sold, that it's free and easy, you can do what you like and there's no cost. There is cost.
Speaker 1:All I'm trying to say is there's cost and for some people it might be emotional, spiritual, physical, whatever. Some people might be fine, but I'm just letting you know a lot of young women don't know this because they're not told this. They're just told oh, you can do it your like and it's free, and nothing in life is free. Everything there's a cost to it. All I'm trying to do is highlight that so that you can think about these things. You can think about these things.
Speaker 1:The other thing that we don't always fully understand hang on, I just need to pause, I'll be back in a moment. So the other thing in regards to this is there is a cost. There is an emotional cost and there is like a certain sort of spiritual cost. And again, women are built differently. So there are some women who don't seem to be really bothered about this sort of thing and there are other women that are very deeply affected. So again, I'm not moralizing, just sort of pointing out that you kind of have to know which one you are, or figure out which one you are, so that you can tread a path that aligns for you and that's going to work for you.
Speaker 1:You know, sex is a very intimate thing and I personally think that for women, having men being with men in that way is very, not just physically intimate, of course, very physically intimate, but it's another level. It's like something to do with that energy of that person as well. So again, it's like you be aware of the energy of that person because you kind of to me, I feel like you're taking that on to a certain extent or you're being affected by it to a certain extent. So we've got to consider that. So again, some women may have no issue and they're fine, and other women it really might affect them a lot, the choices that they've made, that they chose to be with people who maybe that wasn't a good idea for them and it has affected them.
Speaker 1:The other thing is just in general, just not talking necessarily even about sexual relationships, but in in relationships in general, I think we do have to be careful about who we have in our life and who we trust and and who we are intimate with and understand different personalities and and whether or not we're with someone who we're sort of emotionally and physically safe with. So that's sort of all part of this and that's just something that we have to consider and I think that just overall, relationships and sexual activity have a very large cost to women and also can be a great benefit, both right, but they can have a very large cost. So we do need to understand what those costs are and make decisions wisely that work for us like I'm not again not moralizing, just decisions that work for us ourselves. So rather than kind of go oh, sex and the City says you know, different guy every weekend is cool and fine, maybe it is for some people, but maybe it's not for you and you're the only one that can make that choice, but just have an awareness around that whether or not you feel that really is going to feel good for you and sit right for you and I do see a lot of women who, you see, women who've done porn or porn. I've been very with a lot of partners when they're younger who do regret it when they're older. I'm sure there's ones that don't as well. So again, it's each to their own.
Speaker 1:But I just remind, I'm just letting women know you should really think about these things, not because I have a, you know, whatever my opinion is, just because I think we I don't know in the modern world, because we're all so, oh, we can be what we want and do what we want. And you know what you know. We've got freedom. Freedom comes with lots of choice, but choices have consequences and I just think that we don't. I don't think we talk about them enough. And it was the opposite when I was younger it was all about the consequences, and now it's like we don't talk about them at all, or maybe we are, but I'm not hearing these conversations. So that's why I just wanted to begin this conversation with you Again, not judging anyone's choices, just letting you know you have to live with your choices and choices have consequences and you have to consider what your values are, what feels right for you, how you're going to manage your health, how you're going to manage your fertility, those kinds of things, and they're important and some of these things can have lifelong consequences.
Speaker 1:So you just have to have an awareness around this stuff, right? So just an awareness and thinking about it and making choices that are right for you. And if you make choices that aren't so right for you which I did, make choices that weren't so right for me when I was younger and choices that I really do regret then also kind of being willing to say okay, rather than just do the same thing over and over, maybe saying okay, that's not working for me, maybe I'll make different choices and again, whatever's working for you. The other thing I think that a lot of us are told is having children is the worst thing you can do, and they get in your way and they destroy your life. And I wasn't able to have children. There was times where I didn't want children, but then I also ultimately wasn't able to have them anyway, and I don't believe that.
Speaker 1:Look, I do believe that obviously, children do take over your life and it is full on and it's it's huge right. So there's no question about that. But I also think that they bring I think they bring a maturity to you. I think they they get you out of your own your own head and out of your own sort of selfishness and and you become more aware of other people and less obsessed with yourself. I think also they give you a sense of purpose and they reflect a lot of you back to yourself and force you to grow up a lot and, if you're really lucky, you create a family and that creates a safe space for you, hopefully, as you get older, that you've got someone who will support you and all of that stuff, right. So I actually think having a family is a positive thing.
Speaker 1:And look, not everyone has to and it's not right for everyone, but the whole kind of having children so many TikTokers and stuff saying, oh, I don't have to have children and I'm in my 40s and I can just drink all night and party yeah, you can, it might be a bit empty at some point. Yeah, you can, it might be a bit empty at some point. And again, whatever's right for you, do your thing. I don't have children. So one way or the other, but there's a cost of both, right? So the cost to me is I don't have children and I won't have anyone to look after me when I get old, necessarily, and I don't really have that family and when my mom passed away a few years ago and I'm thinking about things that I'm remembering and that I could pass on, but there's no one who I can pass that on to, right? So there's no one I can't kind of pass on my family heritage or my family history to anyone. So you know, there's consequences to not having children right and there's consequences to having them both. Everything in life has consequences.
Speaker 1:But again, I want to encourage young women and women in general just to think about these things, because you have to. It's just part of life. You have to understand these things. The other thing, too, is also understanding that fertility has a finite time, especially for women. Now we might be getting better and better with all sorts of technology, but believe you me, if you want children, the earlier the better for women, because our fertility does get less and less as we get older and it gets much more challenging.
Speaker 1:And there's a lot of women who have been told to have the career first and then, by the time they go to have the family, they're unable to do it, and I think that you can have both. I just don't think you can have it all at the same time. I was interviewing someone for another podcast the other day and this woman was a lawyer and she really gave her life to law but then she lost her marriage over it and she's got some young children and she's figuring all that out and she was talking to me about her regrets around that that she she didn't focus on her family and and I don't think there is a wrong or right around that that you know, all women should be at home with their children or all women should have careers like there's not a wrong or right, but there is certainly consequences to both choices. So I think again, as women, we need to consider what those and as families, as marriages, whatever we need to consider what are the consequences are and make our decisions like that. And if I was talking to a younger person, I would probably say start a family younger if you can, because ultimately we're just fertile, ideally women, I'm not sort of saying, but we're most fertile when we're 18 or 17, 18, right Now, that's not always practical right, but I'm just saying that that's when we're fertile. So because we're kind of now often starting trying to start families at 38 instead of 18, that's a problem. So I'm not necessarily telling all the 18-year-olds to go out and get pregnant, but I'm also saying, just have an awareness around this and maybe you know, just be aware that it has an end limit to it and we have to make decisions around those things.
Speaker 1:And again, all I'm doing is pointing out that decisions have consequences and you have choices and I think there are some women who are really suited to a career and don't really want kids. There's some women who are really suited to kids and don't really want a career, and there's some women who want both and will happily do both. And it's just getting the balancing act right for them and whatever works for that family. I don't think there's a wrong or right way to do it. There's the right way for you and there's a new family, and so the other thing is kind of like just not having the judgment on, because it's really weird Women who want to stay home and have children and raise their family. They get judged a lot these days. Oh, why don't you want a career? You just want to be a mother. Well, being a mother is a wonderful thing and being a mother and looking after your family is a beautiful thing to do. Having a career can also be a great thing. They can both be great things, right. So there's no judgment there. Just don't judge each other.
Speaker 1:Allow women to do the thing that works for them and don't constantly tell women that having children is the worst thing that you can do and it's going to ruin their life. Because I just don't believe that's true. It's going to change your life for sure and there's consequences, good and bad, to either having or not having children. But just women just being told, oh, children are just going to ruin your life. I think that's true and I don't think that's fair and it's an unfair thing to tell women and a lot of women believe this, and then they finally kind of start to understand it when they get to an age where maybe there's not much they can do about it. So having children is not the worst thing you can do. Ultimately, do what is right for you and let other people make your decisions for you. And if you want to be a stay-at-home mom and you're able to do that, go for it. Good on you, that's wonderful, and if you don't, you do you right.
Speaker 1:So the other thing, too, is that sort of the whole we have to be masculine to get ahead in life. No, we don't. You can be feminine, you can be who you are, and if you are masculine, if you're naturally that way, that's fine as well. But essentially you can be who you are, whatever that is. There's no right way to be a woman. There's just the way that works for you and that's fine. But just, you know, you do you and there's no kind of rules about you. You have to be masculine to get ahead or you have to be this, you have to be that. No, just be yourself, whatever that looks like.
Speaker 1:And the other thing, too, is that we see a lot of is. You know that, um, you know, being, you know, being modest is oppressive, and it's oppressive in some situations, I think. If you're being forced to wear a burka or whatever those other different coverings are called, if you're doing that and you're being forced to do that, and you're in a place where you're not allowed to even show your face and you can't even see properly, and you're going to get hit by a car because you can't even see it across the road but you can't take your face covering off, I think that's oppressive, personally, if you're doing that because you want to good on you, but if you're doing that because you're being forced to not so good, like some of the stuff that's going on in Afghanistan at the moment and other countries like that. But at the same time, I don't see letting it all hang out everywhere all the time as being freedom. I don't know it's like.
Speaker 1:Is that freedom? Again, this is me. I suppose this is me moralizing to a certain extent. You do you, I just don't. Is that freedom? I suppose freedom to me is that you could be modest and you could choose that. Freedom to me is you could not be and you could choose that as well. Either is a choice and both come with consequences. So again, you do you and both is fine. But I just like not only free if you have it all hanging out. You can be free if you choose to be modest as well or whatever in between. Again, actions have consequences. Just have an awareness over that. And you do you.
Speaker 1:But this whole need, this whole kind of need to some of the songs and some of the stuff these days. I probably sound like a really old lady now, but I just think that what we've done is a lot of. You see this in some rap culture I'm not having a go all rap culture, I like some rap, but in some rap culture and some R&B and rap culture and just like pop music, whatever. These days there's a lot of women doing really degrading things to themselves and it doesn't feel really freedom-y to me. It actually doesn't feel good at all. It just feels like, oh, you know, and really cheapening themselves and cheapening women and yeah, I don't know, I can't. It doesn't feel like freedom to me. It doesn't feel like that at all. So and it's like, oh yeah, but we're sisters and we're doing it, we're choosing to do it ourselves and got my OnlyFans account and we're doing that for myself, and it's like freedom and I'm so free and well, maybe you are, and good on you.
Speaker 1:However, I still feel like the choices are going to have consequences and you may or may not like those consequences, but um, but yeah, I just think a lot of what women are doing in the name of freedom now is really degrading, and some women might be doing certain things and feeling empowered by it as well. I'm just like that's. I understand that. I understand that not everyone's me and not everyone thinks the same way as me, and I did grow up with my grandmother, so I will kind of put my hand up and say that I grew up in a time and place where things were a bit um, confined in regards to this stuff. So I that's my bias has come from my age and my time and the growing up with my grandmother, but it just feels to me some of the things that we're doing in the name of kind of freedom now don't feel so free and I think a lot of what we're doing is really really just cheapening women overall and cheapening ourselves. I don't think that's necessarily a good idea and I think that I see some of those people feeling those consequences. I've even seen Cardi B saying, I think, that she doesn't want her children to see that song.
Speaker 1:So I think that, yeah, we think that it's freedom and I don't know, I don't know if it ultimately ends up being freedom. You can make that choice for yourself, but just don't know, I don't know if it ultimately ends up being freedom. You can make that choice for yourself, but just don't get caught up in the freedom is all those things mean freedom. Freedom is also the choice not to do that and to have a bit of modesty and choose what you share with the world. And you're free to do either of those things for sure, and they both have different costs for different reasons, and you decide, you decide for yourself. But I just try to encourage people just to think about it. Think about it rather than just being, oh, we're free and we're young and we can do you can.
Speaker 1:But no, and look, not saying I didn't wear sexy clothes when I was younger and all that you know. You could say, oh well, old lady, you can't get around in the look of those sexy clothes when I was younger and all that you know. You could say, oh well, old lady, who can't get around and look at those sexy clothes anymore and doesn't look like that anymore is just jealous. Yeah, you could say that. But it's not just about that and I'm not even like I'm not against girls going out in pretty dresses and being a bit sexy and whatever. It's not really that. It's more kind of like the Cardi B stuff and some of these video clips and things like that where like, yeah, I don't know there's there's sexy and then there's next level pornography, what I think some of it's pretty vile personally. So again, that's very much a judgment, but oh, that's my choice to make that judgment. It's your choice to do what you want to do. And just all I'm doing is I'm just saying please think about it, please think about consequences, because there are consequences.
Speaker 1:And look, the other thing that we're told is we're told that career is everything and that will be completely fulfilling for you. And it is for some people, but not for everybody. So I would just say, if you're younger and you're not quite sure what you want to do, I wouldn't put all my eggs in the basket of one or the other. Necessarily, maybe you know. Obviously, if you can study or do something or learn something and start a career, that's fantastic. But if you want a family and you want to interrupt your career for a little while and start a family and you do that when you're younger, that's fine as well.
Speaker 1:Sort of, do what feels right for you and look after yourself and your family and be aware that ultimately, ultimately, I think what I'm trying to say in this episode is that we, as women, we do have choices, we have a lot of choices, and sometimes it's like we've got so much choice that it's actually quite challenging and I feel like there's a culture where we're just been encouraged with one thing that it's all about freedom and it's all about sexual liberation and it's all about not having children and having their career, and I'm going to have my OnlyFans account and blah, blah, blah. I think there's a lot of young women being pushed down that funnel and being told there's going to be no consequences, you're just going to be happy, you're just going to be rich, whatever. There's a lot of consequences to a lot of things in life and ultimately you choose your own path and you make your own choices and ultimately I hope that you're happy with whatever choices that you do make and I hope that that's fulfilling for you. But to be a successful woman or a woman who's respected, you don't have to have a career. That might be being a mother. For you, it might be having a career, it might be both. And I think that women, we need to get off each other's backs and not be so judgmental of each other, and I think that we need to bring back an acceptance of supporting young mums and supporting mothers, that it's okay to be a mother and it's a great thing. And it is a great thing, because bringing people into the world and nurturing them and bringing up our next human beings that are going to be the next level of grown-ups is actually a really, really important job. So, anyway, I hope that I've been rambling a bit today, but I hope that I've encouraged you to just think about the fact that there's lots of options as a young woman today and you can make lots of choices, but they do have consequences and I'm just encouraging you to think things through.
Speaker 1:The other thing is in regards to when you become sexually active and the sort of the age that that happens, and I'm pretty sure in Australia at this stage 16 I think, but I know I'm not. I haven't looked up the laws lately. Just be aware that you can think that you're ready and you're not, and we think that we're ready. I know that was my experience. I thought that I was ready and I wasn't and I paid for that and it was costly, and I just want other people to know, to have a bit of a think about that. So, if you think you're ready, maybe you are, but think about it again.
Speaker 1:Give yourself a bit more time, learn a bit more about, learn about your biology, Learn about your body, learn how it all works. That's the other thing too. We go into these. We grow up and we become sexually active. We don't even know how we get pregnant. We don't even know about STDs. We don't know how our body works, about sexual function. We don't know. So many of us just don't know any of that and we just launch into this world of being grown up and doing all these grown up things and have no idea.
Speaker 1:So I would encourage you to learn more about that, to learn about your body, learn about your biology and look at the issues of morality and choice and all of that and get a feel for what feels right for you, what your values are, and stick with your values. It doesn't have to be the same as someone else, they're your values and kind of make your decisions around those things and just take it just a little bit slower and just investigate more about your choices and consequences so that you just understand what they are and what you're choosing. So that's what I would just encourage. So the purpose of this episode I hope it was clear is not to make any judgments on anyone. I know some of the things I'm moralized about, but hey, that's just my thoughts for me, and I also respect that other people have different opinions and you might choose different things and that's fine as well.
Speaker 1:I just would like you to understand that we do have a lot of choice these days and we also have to live with the consequences, and I believe that we should just take it a bit slowly, learn a bit more, learn a bit more about ourselves, understand a bit more about ourselves emotionally, values-wise, physically before we embark on things that can be quite life-changing and also can be wonderful. Sex and relationships and marriage and all those things can actually be really wonderful. But that might not happen for you or that might be more challenging for you if you make other choices that might harm you physically, spiritually, emotionally, whatever. When you're younger, that might make it a bit more challenging for you to reach to achieve that happiness in your life. Anyway, I hope that made sense. I'd love to hear your feedback as well.
Speaker 1:It's really just about giving yourself some space and time to figure out, understand your body, understand your own morals and values, or start sort of building your own morals and values and just sort of learning a bit more about those things and understanding that, yes, you have freedom, but your choices do have consequences, so just have a think about them and choose as wisely as you can.
