LoveDoesNotHurt

Empowering—engaging—
unapologetically speaking healing
and love into existence.

love does not hurt… is a synergetic
and multimedia performance that
passionately engages the audience
in the male and female voice of
intimate partner violence.

The “superwombon” status and
blame are taken off the shoulders of
girls and womyn and replaced with
self-care, affirmations and positive
energy. This mind, body and soul
experience not only gives womyn
images of empowered girlhood and
womonhood, but also offers boys
and men images that are not
misogynistic or limits boyhood and
manhood to power, control and
aggression over girls and womyn.

love does not hurt…offers balance,
love, truth and an open line of
communication among and between
the sexes.

Come experience five couples
journey in the pattern of abuse called
domestic violence.
