Liberte, Egalite & Fellatio: The Queer Confessions of a Fanboy Slasher
From La Zambinella to Sarrasine:
"If you were a man or a woman... How much more interesting, though, to be both and neither."
I think I hate the word gay. It's became ridiculous, stuffed with connotative distractions like drink-in-your-hand-cigarette-in-the-other-flower-between-your-teeth
happy. I also hate labels, which might be part of the problem. Yes, I
understand that, politically, for instance, they can be useful, but
still, blech. The word, like 'feminist' and 'queer', is so crammed full
of meaning that it don't mean anything anymore.
And it's not
like I don't use labels; I've called myself "gay" and "queer" (and
sometimes even "bi", because, even though I generally prefer cock, I'm
not completely opposed to pussy) when the subject's come up. When I
say, "I hate the word gay," I certainly don't mean that I'm ashamed of
anything, or that I'm not a gorgeous, cock-sucking, asslicking,
slash-writing, slash-loving badboy. I just don't especially like the
label for the wishy-washiness of it.
But couldn't the same thing
be said about stereotypes? Labels are undeniably easier, and maybe
that's why I don't like them, in part. "Bi", for example, has so many
negative connotations--everyone thinks that you can't make up your
mind, that you're hedging your bets, when you (and "you" is me *g*)
just aren't that picky when it comes to genitalia. Why have limits?
They're so limiting.
I feel like I've spent my whole life trying
to get away from terms that other people have chosen for me, from gay
to atheist to fan to man. These days I'd rather skip the whole
explanation, or do it right. I used to be stronger about stuff like
this, or maybe less worried might be more accurate, and say fuck
everyone; but these days I have this need to make sure that people know
who I am, not who they want me to be, so it won't come back to bite me
on the ass. This is obviously a personal decision, one that suits me,
but one that might not, of course, suit anyone else.
And we'll
never get beyond these goddamn labels if we slashers keep reproducing
them. I like slash best when it stomps all over labels and presents
this kind of sexual utopia where it just doesn't matter who you fuck.
We should just let the characters be omnisexual and fuck each other and
anyone else they might fancy without the need to explain or justify
their desires. Let them suck cock happily, like it's a perfectly
natural thing to do. Which it is.
I think we should all suck
cock like it's a perfectly natural thing to do. So go on, get out there
and suck some cock. Go blow some big hot stud in the name of oral and
political freedom. Vive la revolution! A vos genoux! Blowjobs for
everyone! Cock-suckers of the world unite!
