The Phallic Tongue of the Chingona

Title of Event: The Phallic Tongue of the Chingona

Description of Event:

This two-part webinar explores the tongue as a site of language, memory, desire, and survival. Across two live sessions, participants are invited to examine how the tongue holds history and power, from colonial violence and translation to pleasure, voice, and erotic expression.

Drawing from Chicana/x, Xicana, and Latina/x feminist frameworks and contemporary understandings of fascia and anatomy, this course reframes the tongue beyond silence or shame.

Participants will explore the root of chingar to chingona, revisit La Malinche as translator and bridge rather than traitor, and learn how the tongue, breath, and fascia connect voice to the pelvic floor and sexual expression.

This webinar is designed for both sexuality professionals seeking continuing education and community learners interested in re-animating their Chingonisma through cultural memory and embodied knowledge. No prior background in anatomy or sexuality studies is required. This course is especially relevant for sexuality educators, counselors, and therapists whose work engages Chicana, Xicana, Mexican, Latina communities, offering a culturally grounded context for understanding voice, sexuality, and embodied expression within these lived realities.

No prior background in anatomy or sexuality studies is required.

Learning Objectives:

1. By the end of this session, participants will be able to identify at least one anatomical connection between the tongue, fascia, and pelvic floor relevant to voice and sexual expression.
2. By the end of this session, participants will be able to explain how fascia functions as an embodied system influencing voice, sound, and erotic expression.
