Yami opens up about a variety of common though
not-commonly-talked-about subjects: sexual assault by a family
member, and navigating polyamory.
Yami is a 23-year-old, cisgender female who describes herself as
bisexual and heteroromantic, in a relationship and exploring
opening up with her partner. She describes her body shape as “a few
extra pounds.”
Public service announcement: It is not your job
to not be assaulted. Especially as a younger person, you shouldn’t
even need to know how to not be assaulted.
Term to learn: Compersion is feeling
pleasure when your partner is experiencing pleasure.
Bookmark moments:
- 4:54 - Yami remembers being about 6 years old, and exploring
with another young girl.
- 7:27 - She shares her timeline of growing up in the Dominican
Republic before moving to the US.
- 9:16 - She’s a little obsessed with getting her period, though
there’s no sex talk at home; she discovers masturbation on her own,
then loses her virginity under pressure.
- 15:30 – Yami’s second sexual experience is also non-consensual;
she is raped by an older family member. She withdraws from her
friends, and a long period that follows is a blur.
- 29:00 - A couple years later, she is alone in a room with a guy
for the first time and is finally able to feel safe. A serious
boyfriend after that is able to conquer intimate touch with her,
but he is a manipulator and a cheater. She gets an STI.
- 35:57 - After lots of hard experience, her current boyfriend
totally pleases her. They have loads of great sex and have been
exploring swinging and play partners. They’re now open to exploring
polyamorous relationships even further, on an emotional and more
dedicated level.
- 42:42 - Yami talks about sexual boundaries with other
parties—how they’ve navigated them in the past, and what they might
look like around potential future engagements.
