| 0:00.0 | And another thing that I haven't spoken about yet, but is quite important is the idea that orgasmic meditation explicitly does not have an expectation of reciprocal pleasure giving. |
| 0:10.4 | So, for example, like a woman who receives this like pleasurable sexual touch from a stroking partner, once those 15 minutes are over, the explicit understanding in an |
| 0:22.7 | om is that she doesn't owe her partner anything, not a hug, a handshake, a thank you, a date, |
| 0:27.5 | more sex. And I think for a lot of women, that can be a pretty revelatory idea because you're |
| 0:34.8 | just brought up in a world where you're socially conditioned to believe that |
| 0:37.5 | if someone gives you sexual pleasure, you owe them something in return. In this new episode of CrawlSpace, we are joined by award-winning journalist Ellen Hewitt, |

| 2:00.4 | And this is a really |
| 2:01.2 | great example because it deals with intimacy separating intimacy from actual sex. I thought it was |
| 2:06.6 | really fascinating. What did you think? And I think this one taste cult is kind of like a another |
| 2:13.7 | in a long list of cults that are kind of surrounding like wellness. And I find that |
| 2:20.9 | fascinating, like as we keep going here in the, you know, almost into the year 2026, how many of |
