Progressives Trend ‘Black Church Sex’ to Push Promiscuity, LGBT On Black Churches
Black progressives are trending #BlackChurchSex on Twitter in order to badger Black Christians into being more promiscuous and denying traditional church teaching. Sounds fun!
Jesus is not my boyfriend. The Holy Spirit does not satiate my sexual desires. #BlackChurchSex

Wait, what the hell!??
But real talk: One reason women can't get free around sex is bc they are devoted to very conservative kinds of bible interp. #BlackChurchSex

Real talk! This lady is a Salon contributor and we all know that Jesus said Salon contributors cannot make it into the Kingdom of Heaven. I mean, He generally said that. Anyway…
#blackchurchsex if women are made afraid to talk about pleasurable consensual sex, how can we be even be honest in discussing assault?

#BlackChurchSex how are we helping LGBTQ youth of color make sense of their identity AND their faith? They need us.

The other thing is churches teach poor sex ed. Soul ties? Utter bullshit. #BlackChurchSex
— Brittney Cooper (@ProfessorCrunk) May 14, 2015
The church needs to talk about the range of sexual experiences from asexual to queer to hetero. And make space for them all. #BlackChurchSex

i swear if i hear ONE MORE spoken word poem talmbout 'ladies don't give yourself away or he won't respect you" #BlackChurchSex

Do you know how hard it is to love yourself when you're constantly being taught that God HATES you if you're LGBTQ? #BlackChurchSex

The Bible doesn’t teach that. God hates sin, the behavior. This is a common strawman against religion.
how many black women have been involuntarily single for years b/c they were told to *wait* for God to bring them a husband? #BlackChurchSex
— Toxic Tweeter (@seelolago) May 14, 2015
Yeah stop waiting, start whoring it up, that’ll fix all your problems.
Women are shamed for expressing themselves sexually but the promiscuous pastor's integrity is never called into question #BlackChurchSex

OK this actually sounds like a problem, but that doesn’t mean you accept promiscuity.
A man who loses respect for you based on your sexual history never respected you anyway. They respected your respectability. #BlackChurchSex

Now, go forth and whore it up!
.@KENNotBeStopped one's sexual choices does not define who they are as a person, ESPECIALLY in a Christian context.
— Makiah Green (@makiahisms) May 14, 2015
This is utterly absurd – they’re saying you gotta whore it up because that’s who you are, but you can’t be judged on it, because that’s not who you are! LOL!
Christianity has trained women to think their validation is through a man #BlackChurchSex

Promoting healthy #BlackChurchSex does not mean promoting having sex w/ everything moving (less that's what you into.)
— Brittney Cooper (@ProfessorCrunk) May 14, 2015
No, we’re not all Bill Clinton.
Marriage doesn't guarantee anything anymore. So why is it still being promoted as the gateway into all things pleasurable? #BlackChurchSex
— Makiah Green (@makiahisms) May 14, 2015
Nothing fixes everything. But marriage sure as hell fixes a lot! Stupid premise.
"God you wrong about sex. I don't have to be married. Fornication ain't real." Let's all say it together. #BlackChurchSex

black women in churches are pressured to conform to a standard of "purity" that was never meant for us to begin with #BlackChurchSex
— Toxic Tweeter (@seelolago) May 14, 2015
Er… purity wasn’t meant for black women? Sounds a leeeetle racist!
Was taught being "made free" = abiding by gender + sexually oppressive theology. Which is… the exact opposite of freedom. #BlackChurchSex

Sexual Repression and patriarchy go hand in hand. #blackchurchsex
— Randy Savage (@MichealSinclair) May 14, 2015
There's a huge chunk of Jesus' life missing from scripture. Jesus was pubescent at some point. He was a man. He was sexual. #BlackChurchSex
— ella's homie (@_BrothaG) May 14, 2015
There are married women in the church who have never had an orgasm. Chile. People need to wake up #BlackChurchSex
— Mrs. Grotke (@__BHB__) May 14, 2015
What? Maybe in the fifties.
A lot of this conservative sex talk is just respectability politics masquerading as sound theology. #BlackChurchSex
— Brittney Cooper (@ProfessorCrunk) May 14, 2015
Damn sure we don’t need respectability! OK. I could do this all day. But I need to go wash my mind out with bleach and Febreeze. Thank you for participating.
