As research for this article, I sent out a text to every girl in my phone and asked them: What song do you feel empowers your sexual freedom? I got a lot of responses, but there was one that stuck out. My friend who identifies as bisexual responded to me by saying that she doesn't feel like there are any. All sexual songs she knew are gender conforming and heterosexual based. At first I didn't think this could be true. After doing some digging myself, I found this to be overwhelmingly true. I was saddened by this discovery, being a part of the LGBTTQQIAAP community myself. I ended up finding some songs that I find to be gender fluid and non-constrictive on sexual identity. Of course there is nothing wrong with preaching how much you love your man, but for my purposes I was seeking something a little more inclusive.

Sexual freedom is something that women have been deprived of for centuries. If a girl shows any interest in sex, she is considered a slut, while men do not have the same problem. These are a few of the songs that I feel encourage my sexual freedom. These are the songs I will blast in my car on a night out when I'm feeling sexy.
