Suddenly, youвЂ™re the one coming on to HIM all the time. Suddenly, youвЂ™re the one trying to jump your boyfriend at every turn. WeвЂ™re sexually insatiable, and while the guys we date may think thatвЂ™s just fantastic, it ends up being more of a struggle. We refuse to find shame in our desires, no matter who tries to ostracize us. WeвЂ™re lustful and fantasize just as much as the male population. We want sex just as much, if not more than men do. We've embraced our sexuality, and we own it. Yet, just like most things, some of us are much more sexual than others.ДЄ highly sexual woman is just like any other woman. We all love a great sexual encounter of the sweaty, steamy variety.

The thing is, we definitely are sexual beings despite the conflicting rhetoric society likes to project. In fact, women being sexual creatures in any sense are a myth to most. YouвЂ™re a bit like a unicorn, a woman whom men have heard of but have never seen. If you would like to support our mission, please consider a donationВ to support Blackburn Center today.When youвЂ™re a woman who absolutely loves sex, youвЂ™re a minority among your female counterparts. Objectification and degradation of women in our mediaД«lackburn Center is committed to social transformationВ and to understanding the root causes of gender-based violence so that we can end it. At the same time, we will work to address the root causes of gender-based violence so domestic and sexual violence will not longer be so prevalent in our community and society as a whole. Since 1976, we have offered services to victims of domestic and sexual violence and other types of crime and violence, and we will continue to do so until our services are no longer needed. This is Blackburn CenterвЂ™s approach to gender-based violence. As an analogy, if the fire inspector came to your house and said your wiring was bad, what would you do? Put fire extinguishers in every room of the house, OR rewire? Until you got the rewiring done, youвЂ™d definitely want to have a supply of fire extinguishers вЂ“ but you probably wouldnвЂ™t stop there.

Of course, an effective approach to a solution requires a two-pronged approach that addresses the immediate problem and looks at the root causes. If they were trying to END homelessness, their resources would have been better spent on addressing issues like the lack of affordable housing, the significant gaps in job training and education, and the lack of availability of jobs with sustainable wages.

Homelessness is not caused by a lack of shelters. This was certainly needed on an immediate basis вЂ“ but they missed the root causes of homelessness. The city, though they had made a commitment to ending homelessness, had stopped well short of core change by focusing all of their resources on building homeless shelters in the city. Several years ago, researchers conducted a study related to homelessness in a large metropolitan area, concluding that the city leaders had not met their goal of reducing the incidence of homelessness. For example, many cities struggle with homelessness. Understanding root causes can be difficult, as it req uires us to look beyond what we see in front of us and attempt to see the more complicated factors that are driving the problem. At Blackburn Center, we believe that if we want to end gender-based violence, we must eliminate the root causes of that violence. But to get to real change, we must address the underlying issues in order for conditions to improve. It can be easier to deal with the concrete, immediate factors rather than the complex, far-reaching dynamics. When we consider a societal or community problem, itвЂ™s sometimes hard to see past the symptoms of that problem to get at the real cause.
