Niamey, Niger – (African Boulevard News) – The topic of sexuality has never really been a taboo for me. And I’ve always felt a bit like the friend to whom people come to talk about sexuality, to whom you come and talk about your problems and desires,” says Camille Aumont-Carnel, a France-based Nigerien author.
Aumont-Carnel, originally from Niger, has made it her mission to address a topic that is often shrouded in silence and mystery: sex. In her latest book, she aims to offer “the missing words” to help normalize conversations about sexuality.
Having grown up in a society where discussions about sex were considered improper, Aumont-Carnel understands the importance of breaking down barriers and opening up conversations about this fundamental aspect of human life.
“I believe that everyone has the right to access accurate information about sex and to freely express their desires. By offering ‘the missing words,’ I hope to empower individuals to explore their sexuality in a healthy and informed manner,” she explains.
Aumont-Carnel’s book explores various aspects of sexuality, including consent, pleasure, and sexual orientation. It provides readers with a comprehensive guide to understanding and embracing their own sexuality.
Experts and stakeholders in the field of sexuality education have praised Aumont-Carnel’s efforts in bringing these conversations to the forefront. Dr. Aminata Diallo, a renowned psychologist, underscores the importance of discussing sex openly.
“Sexuality is a natural and integral part of human life. By providing the missing words, Aumont-Carnel is contributing to a much-needed dialogue that promotes understanding, respect, and healthy sexual relationships,” he says.
Aumont-Carnel believes that education and empowerment are key elements in addressing misconceptions and taboos surrounding sex. She advocates for comprehensive sex education that goes beyond the biological aspects and tackles the emotional and psychological dimensions.
“We must move away from viewing sex as a purely physical act and recognize its emotional and psychological significance. By talking openly and honestly, we can dispel myths and promote healthy attitudes towards sex,” she emphasizes.
As Aumont-Carnel’s book gains popularity, it is sparking conversations and encouraging individuals to reflect on their own beliefs and attitudes towards sexuality. By offering the missing words, she hopes to redefine the narrative and create a more inclusive and accepting society.
In a world where discussions about sex are often hushed, Aumont-Carnel’s courageous endeavor to offer the missing words is a step towards breaking down barriers and fostering a more informed and liberated society. The conversation around sex is evolving, and it is authors like Aumont-Carnel who are leading the way in providing the missing words that have long been overdue.
