Let's talk about S-E-X...baby! Better yet, let's talk about INTIMACY! As his life's work, episode 5's male guest (author and theologian Mr. Osceola Thomas) highlights the root of this word - as coming from the Latin word intimare, meaning to "make familiar" or intimus meaning "inmost". The sisters have ears wide open this episode, and at some points, mouths wide open in plausible shock as we listen to Mr. Thomas' studies (leading to his most recent publication, The Naked Truth) regarding spirituality's tie to our identification as sexual beings. Now that we know the root of the vernacular, can we wrap our brains around the core of the actual deed? Are we as ready and receptive of/to our partners in their most vulnerable state as we claim to be? Have we reached a comfortable, accepting state when approached with our naked mirrored image before asking our partners to be accepting of such? What role does monogamy actually play in our sexual ideals? Is polygamy an accurate (and digestible) ideal, framework and viewpoint to describe intimate communion with God/Source/Spirit? And how is this time of quarantine-bae perhaps driving us (kicking and screaming) towards true intimacy? Yes, we cover all of this on episode 5 of Timbs 'n Teddies! So, strap on your seat-belts (or other PPE) and enjoy the ride.  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
