A Guide to 21st Century Sexuality, which our family has been going through like a hilarious family class for the last month. Willkommen, May. Danke, dass du da bist. Wir können hartes Leben machen. Danke, dass du da bist. Es ist so schön, euch alle zu treffen. Das ist meine Frau Abby. Das ist meine Schwester Amanda. Und ihr wisst alle, das ist May.
We have so much to ask you about, but we want to start with sexuality because that's just an easy subject. We can just get out of the way real quick. Yeah, just a light, you know. Easy breezy. Yeah. And also just because we enjoyed your book so much. Let's start by talking about why we should talk about sexuality because I loved your point about
Das heißt wirklich, Sexualität ist für alle, nicht nur für queere Menschen. Und die armen, strengen Menschen können nie über ihre Sexualität sprechen, weil es immer als etwas ist, das nur für queere Menschen ist. Aber du sagst in dem Buch, das ich liebe, dass Gender-Präferenzen die mindestens wichtigste Teil der Sexualität sind. Es gibt viele andere Teile.
Yeah, that's been my experience. And definitely even, yeah, regardless of how you identify, you're rarely attracted to an entire gender, right? It's to do with pheromones or the way people laugh. I have like very specific criteria. Yes, you do. Yeah, I think people often forget that Yeah, it's not just queer people that have asexuality.
Yeah, so some of the examples... And the token hetero on this pod, I will say, I will affirm that, that it didn't occur to me... We even did one on sexuality and I was like, oh, okay, I'll just listen to that one.
