- One would imagine
that in America,

we're a lot more liberal
when it comes to sexuality.

In our country,
we're still so judgmental.

Things are very taboo.

- Right now it's not
really happening for me.

I just survived
The Summer of Celibacy.

- I would say my sex life is--

I'm a very, like,
erotic kind of guy,

so I like the--
the slow, passionate--

you know, I like the build-up.

- If I could eat pussy
all day, I would.

But to me,
what I love the most is,

I like to eat pussy,
like to have sex,

When I'm done,
I gotta go have a sandwich.

People know that about me.
When I'm done having sex,

I'm gonna go have a sandwich,
come back,

and have sex again.

And then I'm gonna go get
another sandwich.

- Ideally, I'd have sex
twice a day.

Breakfast,
and fucking dinner.

- I think talking about sex

for everyone to do,

because we don't
talk about it enough.

- I'm London.
- I'm Donovan.

- Kelly.
- Michael, and this--

- And this--
- And this--

Both: And this is our sex life.

- Oww!

- There's a spiritual
component of it.

Really getting into the energy,
learning about energies

and the sensuality
of it all.

Sex is good.
We say "yes" to pleasure.

We say "yes" to variety,
both women and men.

We say "yes" to sharing!

It keeps
your relationship alive.

We're about enhancing
each other's pleasure.

- All right, son everybody,

we're gonna go ahead

First off, I want to say
thank all of y'all people

for coming and participating

I don't know how many
of you guys know me,

but I am gonna introduce
myself so you know

who the fuck I am.

I'm Cidney Green.
This is my brain child.

It started off as just
an idea and here we are,

three years later,
doing it.

And this is actually
a bit surreal.

You know what I'm saying?
So it's cool!

An Erotic Sleepover
is an all-inclusive,

luxury, spiritual,
sexual retreat.

♪♪♪

The people that come
to the Erotic Sleepover,

you get all walks of life.

I think the common thread
that keeps all of us together

is the desire for sexual
freedom and sexual expression.

And what I provide here
is just really a safe place.

It has to be safe
as far as not being judged,

safe as far as
just physical safety

and it's a very loving,
warm environment.

- I mean...

I've never been on
an Erotic Sleepover before.

- Mm-hmm.

- So I'm just...nervous?

- Nervous?
- Nervous.

- What kind of things
make you nervous about it?

- Being outside of our bedroom.

- Right, that's--

- So, again, we haven't
been outside

of our bedroom, sexually.

So being there
with a bunch of people--

I don't even know
how many people--50 people.

You know what I mean?
It's just gonna be like--

it's--it's not normal,
it seems.

But then, what's normal?

- Yeah, nobody else can
define your normal,

but you.

- I guess.

- So let's go define our normal.

[ both laugh ]
- I guess.

So hopefully, like,
we walk in and just find

the people that we're looking
to hook up with.

- Like, that's the dream.

- That's the dream scenario?

- Like, I don't want
to go searching.

- All right,
so you open the door.

Boom. Pow. Door open.

You walk in.
Describe the person you see.

- Girl or guy?

- Let's start with guy.

- Shirtless.
- Okay.

- Abs.
- All right.

- And he's sweating.
- Okay.

And then I'm just like,
"Oh, ah!"

And then you're like,
"Do you want him?"

And then I'm just like,
"Yeah,"

attack him.

Like, that's my--

if more people did this,

there'd be a lot less cheating
in relationships.

Yeah, like, there needs
to be no wrinkles in it.

Stephanie, do you have all the
alcohol stations planned out?

I can put that
in Milo's quarters

if you want to,
with the trays.

I don't know if you want
the trays to be

already in Milo's quarters or
have the trays at your station.

- Yeah, the trays are
gonna be split up.

- So this year's
Erotic Sleepover,

we're gonna have 30 guests.

And this venue is by far
the best venue we've ever had,

the biggest and the most
grandest venue we ever had.

So I just can't wait
for people to see it.

Thank y'all.
Again, if I'm sharp,

it is not because I don't
love and appreciate y'all.

I'm just--
this is just sharp time.

Like, I gotta be sharp.

I grew up
in Monroe, Louisiana,

obviously the South, okay.

So my mom did not raise
us in the church

like a lot of families were.

Even though my mom was
relatively liberal,

you still get
those ideals that sex is--

you shouldn't do it
and masturbation is bad.

But I started playing
with my pussy young.

I started masturbating young,
okay?

I started figuring out
that things felt good

when you touched
them a certain way

when I was about eight.

And to this day,
you should not trust me

around pool jets
because I will position myself

and act like I'm
reading a book when really,

I'm letting
the water hit my clit.

Yes, I like that.

But, I'm saying all this
to say

I still remember feeling guilt
about sexuality.

I had to figure out a way
to stop giving a fuck

about what I thought
a man wanted or what I thought

society expected of me,
being a black woman.

And I had to sit with myself,
just really figuring out

if there was no such thing
as a social norm at all,

would I like having more
than one man that love me? Yes.

Would I want to be
monogamous? No.

Would I want to have
sex as much as I want

and all this
other time? Yeah.

And I fell in love
with all of it.

And I fell in love with
the person who

had those beliefs
and had those desires.

And so yeah, I figured out
who the fuck I was

and fell in love with
that person and here you are.

I was repressed and now I'm not.

of impact play, right?

So tonight, I'm gonna do
a little demonstration.

We're gonna do a little
breath play, okay?

So if y'all don't
know what breath play is,

breath play is a little
choking, all right?

So before I do this,
consent is very key

and very sexy, all right?

So Junita, do I have your
consent to choke you tonight?

- [ chuckles ]
Yes.

- I'm watching everything
you guys do.

- Consent is very important.

Consent for everything,
not even just sex, okay?

If you want to touch somebody,

you have to get a hard "yes."

Anything that's not a "hell yes"
is a "hell no."

A "I guess you can"?

No. That's a "no," okay?

Everything has
to be a hard "yes."

Caribbean parents,

and I grew up very private.

In my house,
we always were clothed.

You know, come out the shower,
you have a towel on,

you have a robe on,
you have something on.

So if I ever had anything
little on with company over,

my mom's like,
"Put on some pants."

You know, so we were
very covered.

Very--you know, sex wasn't open.

So just seeing everyone
do that was a lot.

that 10,000 years ago,

prior to sexual repression.

Prior to the Victorian Age!

- I could definitely tell

that she was first starting
to get uncomfortable

right when we started
to sit on the beds.

And I think it was just
the overwhelming

of emotions
and sensory overload,

kind of with everything
that was going on.

So it was just a lot for
her to take in

and it was--it just started
going south, unfortunately.

- In societies where people
take care of each other,

all people have sex
together, who want to.

- And that's why I tried
to pay more attention to her,

every once in a while,
reach over and give her a kiss,

grab her hand
and try to hold her close,

let her know that everything's
going to be all right.

- If you would,
come around this way

an exact circle.

Preferably male, female,

- Oh.

- ...where you're going
to practice consent.

who've never been

to an Erotic Sleepover before,

first thing I would say is,
feel the nervousness,

feel some of the fear

Because on the other side
of fear is everything

that you've ever desired.

ended and we continue

to try and support
each other and

make sure we don't get
a repeat of last night.

"Yeah, we're gonna do this,

"we're gonna do that.
Oh, my God,

what if we had six guys?
What if you had--"

And you know, it was
all of this built-up excitement.

And then when I get there,
it was just a shock.

I didn't know what to expect
and it was just--

it was very overwhelming,
I guess.

- If you're not doing well
and you're not feeling well,

I'll get you up
and I'll bring you out.

You won't even have
to do that on your own.
