An American Asexual
By J. Hughes 2023 “That’s what she said!” “It’s not that big!” “I got something you’ll like, baby girl” “I know you want it!” “Yeah, pull it out.” “Eggs Bacon Grits Sausage!” These are the things that make us laugh in theaters, or sitting safely at home watching television or scrolling through TikTok. These are the things we hear in our music, woven seamlessly into our American culture along with advertisements for thinner bodies and larger butts. These are the jokes thrown at mostly women who are depicted as prudish, shy and sweet, innocent and tender and not yet exposed to the so-called glories of sex and intimacy. So much of it goes over my head.
