Your sexuality, whether you are straight, gay or fall anywhere else on the LGBTQ spectrum is yours to own and claim, without any shame or explanation. In more relaxed terms – sexuality is the freedom to express your sexual needs, desires, and cravings and not feel shame about it. The rigid definition of sexuality goes like this – Human sexuality is the way people experience and express themselves sexually. This only means that sexuality is a key trait of our personalities and we should all learn how to accept it, embrace it and express it. Maslow recognized that we require sex, like any other physiological need in humans, to feel good about ourselves and advance in life.
Being sexual, embracing and expressing one’s sexuality, however, is nearly stigmatized.
We can have whatever trait we can think of that demonstrates how we wish to express ourselves, such as intelligence, ambition, boldness, introversion, etc.
