Why Are People Into That?!

You'll recall the meme featuring the great Iggy Pop wearing an evening gown alongside his quote: “I'm not ashamed to dress ‘like a woman' because I don't think it's shameful to be a woman.”

This month's episode is a discussion between two cisgender queer women who have both made a living for many years facilitating the fantasy of cisgender men to dress up in dresses, lingerie, heels, makeup, and wigs. Beginning with the premise that the very idea of “crossing” from one gender to the other is horribly outmoded (for example, both Tina and guest Morgana Maye were definitely both wearing pants during this conversation), these two professional dominants discuss the erotic possibilities and mind-bending politics of those who enjoy erotically embodying femininity without identifying as a woman per ce.

Discussed: “Please explain me to myself” / The difference between erotic degradation, humiliation, and embarrassment /...

Can a size queen ever be satisfied? Maybe not, but why should she? This episode is a tribute to big cocks, giant hands, oversized vibrators, voluminous screams, zaftig bodies, and insatiable appetites. T.Pantherella has sold toys, instructed the sexually curious, and thrown her hip out during a burlesque act, so suffice it to say she knows all about things that take up space.

S-L-U-T: she may be a slut but she looks good to me! That classic Todd Rundgren song may be stuck in your head after listening to Tina and Reid slosh around in a bathtub in Oakland California blowing bubbles and gabbing hard about sexual extroversion. Come for the orgy stories, stay for the cogent perspectives on love and dating from two of the world's sluttiest sex educators.

Why do we get off on the things that scare us? That's the question Tina posed to her old friend Mickey Mod, along with very special guest co-host Quinn Cassidy. As a long-time veteran in front of and behind the sex industry camera, Mickey has a lot to say about the reasons that fear sells porno. This dreamteam threesome ate a lot of nachos, sipped some fine liquor, and talked some serious talks about race, power, and desire.

Pain, discipline, rosy-red butts – there's a lot to love about spanking, and a lot of loaded questions to ask about it, too. One of the most prominent mainstream journalists to tackle those issues these days is Jillian Keenan, who has written extensively about her own spanking fetish. She reveals a bunch of emotionally honest and nerdily physiological explanations into why spanking is such a turn on for her… and our host… and probably most of our audience, too!

Instead, she pulled it together and asked the writer, porn star, and advocate to discuss the Occult. How is magic related to sex? Why are gay sex and BDSM such a threat to those in power?
