Getting naked can mean an unhindered flow of sexual energy between you and a partner, but what if you’re only comfortable if you cover up? Cartoonist Archie Bongiovanni discovered the term Genderqueer years ago, and finally, a beyond-the-binary signifier that fits their gender identity! That first dingy homemade binder made them feel better in their skin, but the responses to it from their hookups didn’t - until Archie meets Jock and Triple Leo Andy, and suddenly the binders are flying, and skin-on-skin feels oh so right. #QueerYourLimits #Trans #Negotiation #ItsABop   See Archie’s art at https://www.archiebongiovanni.com/ Archie’s Books, Merch & more at https://linktr.ee/archiebongiovanni   Song: ‘These Shoes’ (Skyler Bennett) Thank you, Skyler!   Episode Links Event: Our First Outdoor, Fully Vaccinated Post Pandemic Bawdy was a Sold out Success!  The next live Bawdy Storytelling is happening on Saturday July 17th, 2021 (8-10 PM) in San Francisco.
