Excellent podcast, makes you think and consider how what we learn about sexuality when we grow up can be very limiting. There are so many people who don't fit that traditional mould, and all should be accepted and celebrated.

Description

1 podcast, 2 versions: 🇺🇸 Aline, 34, has never been attracted to anyone - neither sexually nor romantically. They retrace their steps through the trials and tribulations of an adolescence steeped in supercharged pop culture messaging and explore how accepting their asexuality and aromantism allowed them to redefine what love, relationship and family mean to them.🇫🇷 Pendant des années, Aline s'est dit « ça finira bien par arriver ». Elle s'est même mise dans des situations inconfortables pour forcer le destin. Ca n'a jamais fonctionné.Elle se sentait isolée, exclue et honteuse. Qu'est-ce que la vie sans l'expérience du désir sexuel ou romantique - de l'aventure d'un soir à la relation de couple ?----✨« En explorant sa propre absence de désir, elle pousse chacun et chacune à interroger le sien : pas besoin d’être asexuel pour apprécier de réinvestir l’amitié, désacraliser le couple, et s’écouter soi-même », Télérama✨“This compelling personal story has lessons and insights for anyone with a body”, Tribeca Festival✨"Though Free From Desire provides plenty of answers, its success isn’t rooted in being educational—accompanying Aline as they pursue agency and happiness, regardless of who understands it, fuels the show’s magic", The Atlantic✨Free from Desire is a podcast originally published in France, where it made the cover of magazines.It has been Tribeca Festival's best Audio Storytelling and Signal Awards' best Diversity, Equity & Inclusion podcast in 2023, and was one of the 25 best podcasts of 2023 for The Atlantic. ✨---Follow Aline on Instagram @YallahAline!--- Hébergé par Acast.
