Beyond the superficial, the consideredphrase, “It feels right to me,” acknowledges thestrength of the erotic into a true knowledge, forwhat that means is the first and most powerfulguiding light toward any understanding
I like the point that Lorde makes throughout this essay about how the erotic becomes a source of strength for women when reclaimed. This reminds me as viewing the erotic as a form of resistance, as a form of power. It is taking a term one step further as to represent a internal sense of satisfaction, joy, and connection to oneself and others. To mean more than just something as simple as sex.
