Remember, the healthiness of your media consumption, fantasies, and kinks is not determined solely by their content. What it really boils down to is how they translate into your real life. How do they intersect with your real-world behaviors? Does engaging with them in a fantasy realm make it harder to do other things, or do you want to pursue them in real life? If so, and if it brings harm to yourself and others, then that is when it becomes a problem and is unhealthy. While our minds may harbor contradictory desires, this doesn’t make us bad people. Our brains are complex, albeit sometimes chaotic and messy, and our fantasies can be complex too and may not always align with our real-life values. That’s okay!
Embracing these complexities while ensuring they remain safe within the boundaries of fantasy is the key to unlocking a healthy exploration of our own desires, which in turn leads to healthier expressions of our sexual selves.
