Why Are People Into That?!

“Making porn informed how I wanted to have sex for the rest of my life. I just want to have sex with my friends who understand craft and narrative and know how to empathize through art.” Tina was so excited that cam model and writer Milcah Halili wanted to talk about the erotic appeal of narratives and storytelling. They went extra deep in a discussion of the stories we tell ourselves, our partners, and our clients in order to live.

This month's episode is, if we may say so, the kind of conversation you'll only find on Why Are People Into That?!. Poet Arielle Greenberg tells Tina Horn all about her fetish for hedonism. Arielle gets off on encouraging a partner to have another drink or another doughnut, to fuck a hot stranger, or to be in any way decadent. From an exploration of the seven deadly sins to a brand new way of thinking about certain cartoons, this discussion may inspire you to think about your own indulgences in a new, hornier light!

DISCUSSED: Bacchanals / Templeton's awesome night at the fair / The fetish possibilities of Greed, Pride, Envy, Sloth, Rage, Lust, and Gluttony / Feeding and Gaining / Emotional Edge Play / What do Magic Mike, Boogie Nights, and Caligula have in common? / Belly Worship / Cigar and Bootblack parties / Naked Desire

DISCUSSED: The difference between polyamory and swinging / A case for choosing swinging over cheating / Why the swinging community is welcoming to bi women more than bi men / Beyond “The Ice Storm” and key parties

Tina was pretty over the moon to talk to legendary comedian/storyteller/perv Kevin Allison about cruising. What do anonymous semi-public BJs have to do with gay male cultural heritage, and – more importantly – where are the best spots in NYC to get/give one? On his podcast, RISK!, Kevin is not shy about his erotic exploits, and this episode pokes around in the tons and tons of tiny little closet sized rooms in the bathhouse of some dirty minds.

DISCUSSED: The Secret Spiral Staircase of the Limelight / One Night in Central Park / The Bijou/ The West Side Club / The Guy Who Made Me Tie My Shoes To My Balls / “Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here” / Heart on my Sleeve, Cards on the Table / The Shadow World Where Rules Don't Apply

Tina Horn and Girl Sex 101 Allison Moon both love to put their strap-ons in the butts of lucky gentlemen. What is it about this specific gender configuration (a cis-woman fucking a cis-man in the ass with a strap-on), this so-called “reversal of roles,” that has the incredible power to queer heterosexual intercourse?

Some questions: What's in your pegging kit? / What does the third sphincter do? / What pegging position does the swamp planet Dagobah bring to mind? / How is a strap-on like a pair of boots?
