<v Speaker 1>So whip out the X lube and get the puppy pads.

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 3>Ready because this episode is all about fisting. Game.

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 1>That was a very loaded transition. I'm really excited to hear,

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>what's your experience with fisting? Not much. I'll tell you

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>that I've tried it. I have told I am an

0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 1>ideal size for fisting. Okay, people look at my height

0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:20.040
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, would you fist me? And I'm like,

0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:22.960
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine percent of the time, the answer is no,

0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:25.800
<v Speaker 1>It personally does very little for me. I'm not that

0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:27.680
<v Speaker 1>interested in it. I did you still Look up with

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>this guy when I first moved to New York and

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:31.759
<v Speaker 1>he was like, Hey, I want to ask you something.

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:33.960
<v Speaker 1>He was like, super shy about it, but he wanted

0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>me to fist him, and I didn't know what that

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>entailed at all. Yeah, So he sent me home with homework.

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>He gave me a book on fisting, and he was like,

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 1>read this and if you think you'd be interested in

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:45.840
<v Speaker 1>doing it to me, come back and we can do it.

0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>I was like, all right, And I read the book

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:49.080
<v Speaker 1>and I learned a lot of things that would have

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:51.680
<v Speaker 1>terrified me if I'd gone into fisting. So there's like

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 1>a whole section in the book that talked about what

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.160
<v Speaker 1>happens once you go beyond the knuckle uh huh, that

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>like the body just kind of sucks.

0:01:57.640 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 3>The rest of your army.

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.240
<v Speaker 1>That is correct, and I'm like, that is exactly what happened,

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 1>and it is very unsettling.

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 3>It is.

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>It felt like something out of alien, you know what

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean. It was like and it made a sound.

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was wild.

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.680
<v Speaker 1>So again, I'm really glad that I read up before

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:17.359
<v Speaker 1>doing that. I think I did it more because I

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>was into him, but it felt less for me. Okay,

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 1>it felt very much for him. Wow, Okay, we are

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.880
<v Speaker 1>so different. Yeah, because your eyes are telling me that

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>you have a story you did definitely like to share.

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I mean I fisted someone for the first time

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 3>when I was sixteen.

0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:33.919
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god.

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know how anal sex worked at sixteen.

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.440
<v Speaker 3>No, I entered like a craigsist ad and he like

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 3>asked me if I would be into it, and I

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:43.919
<v Speaker 3>did not know what he was talking about, and he said,

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:46.640
<v Speaker 3>don't worry, I'll show you. And like I showed up

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.160
<v Speaker 3>and there was, you know, a man and a container

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 3>of crisco where old school, old school. Yeah, and that

0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:54.079
<v Speaker 3>sort of started me on my fist and journey and

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 3>I've been doing it ever since. So was that a

0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.799
<v Speaker 3>positive experience? I mean, you were clearly too.

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Young to be doing that, but like, was it a yeah?

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:07.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean yes, yes, well well yes yeah.

0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.359
<v Speaker 3>But I I love it. I think it's one of

0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 3>the like most intimate acts you can engage with sexually.

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 3>I truly enjoy it.

0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Is this like the regular part of your sexual practice

0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:20.200
<v Speaker 1>or is it like depending on the partner?

0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:22.040
<v Speaker 3>I have no idea.

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 1>Chris, you contain multitudes. I do multitude, But fair, you're

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.440
<v Speaker 1>the fister. I'm the fister, okay, top I see and

0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I have massive hands.

0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:33.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah you do. I know.

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm the beginning. I'm like the training

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.839
<v Speaker 1>dildo and you're the like literally not for the novice. Yeah.

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 3>If you've listened to our show for the past two seasons,

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 3>you've heard us deep dive on lots of kings and fetishes,

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 3>from puppy play to chastity to wrestling.

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:50.720
<v Speaker 1>But fisting seems to be one of the biggest fetishes

0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 1>in the queer community, and as years go by, it

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>just keeps getting bigger and bigger and bigger.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 3>With fisting videos all over Gagewitter, Fitzfluencer's pushing prolapsed dildos,

0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 3>and more and more young people getting into it. It's

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 3>almost like we're approaching fisting's total crossover from kink to

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 3>common practice.

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>In this episode, we're going to talk to one of

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:11.320
<v Speaker 1>our favorite sex writers, the incredible Alex Cheves, who first

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>gained a following as a sex writer dolling out advice

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.240
<v Speaker 1>for The Advocate. In twenty twenty one, he published his

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:19.280
<v Speaker 1>debut memoir, My Love Is a Beast Confessions, where he

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:24.160
<v Speaker 1>talks with a raw, poetic honesty about his sexual awakenings, fisting, kink,

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>sex work, HIV, and so much more.

0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:29.799
<v Speaker 3>Please welcome to Snippy's Cruising Confessions. Alex Chevez.

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Alex welcome, Thank you for being here, Thank you for

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 1>having me, Thank you so much for calling in. For

0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:37.360
<v Speaker 1>listeners who don't know, Alex is calling in from Berlin,

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>the kinky sex capital of Europe.

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:40.560
<v Speaker 4>In the sex capital of the world.

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I would say, so this might not be the case

0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:46.119
<v Speaker 1>in Germany, given that you are the kinky sex capital

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.720
<v Speaker 1>of the world. Correct, But I feel like I have seen,

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>at least anecdotally, in the US a lot more people

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>talking about fisting. Do you think fisting is having a

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>moment right now?

0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 3>Is she the it girl?

0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 4>Fisting? Is the it girl? It?

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.360
<v Speaker 5>Fisters talk about fisting Twitter It is the phenomenon in

0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 5>the fisting world, and I think it's been the it

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 5>girl for a little bit now. If anything, I feel

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.240
<v Speaker 5>like we're on our way out of fisting Twitter. But fisting,

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:13.160
<v Speaker 5>I think in a few years is going to be

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 5>a whole generation of fisters who met each other through

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 5>Twitter because for whatever reason, it was one of those

0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:23.760
<v Speaker 5>lanes of sex content on Twitter that just really created

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 5>a tight community. Were not that type, but I'm just exploded.

0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 5>It was one of those kinks that really took off

0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:34.279
<v Speaker 5>in the era of social media.

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.279
<v Speaker 1>It is interesting that you mentioned Twitter because I feel

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.039
<v Speaker 1>like that site was one of the few social media

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 1>sites that did not censor sexual content. And even on

0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 1>sites like OnlyFans, I believe things like fisting are still

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:48.040
<v Speaker 1>not allowed to be distributed or shown platforms.

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 4>That's why I got kicked off of Only Fans way.

0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:52.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I put fisting videos on there and I didn't

0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 5>know the rules, and they like, sorry, you can't do this.

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Do they have customer service? Can you call it and

0:05:58.360 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 1>be like, my fisting videos are taken down?

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:04.960
<v Speaker 3>So a lot goes into shaping what you're into. Are

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 3>there any parts of your life that made you gravitating

0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 3>towards fisting.

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's not exciting. I found fisting the way a

0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 5>lot of people did my age is through porn. And crucially,

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:15.480
<v Speaker 5>for a long time, fisting lived in the avenue of

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:18.600
<v Speaker 5>things that I was never interested in actually doing. And

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I think a lot of people have those things, right,

0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:23.919
<v Speaker 5>You have these kinks that you might watch, but are

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.599
<v Speaker 5>things that you're never really interested in actually living out.

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:28.400
<v Speaker 4>And for years, actually.

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 5>Fisting was always this like, oh, look at this cool

0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:33.719
<v Speaker 5>thing online, but I never wanted it to be part

0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 5>of my life. I never once took the steps of

0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 5>like training and finding a regular fisting playmate.

0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:40.120
<v Speaker 4>It just kind of happened.

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:42.039
<v Speaker 5>And then once that happened, I was like, oh, okay,

0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 5>now I'm into fisting, Like, now I'm real I do it.

0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 3>And what was it about that experience that made you

0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:48.200
<v Speaker 3>jump headfirst into it?

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:49.400
<v Speaker 4>That first experience was.

0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.599
<v Speaker 5>It fulsome It was with one of these amazing dumbs

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 5>that just I never once said I was into fisting.

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.800
<v Speaker 5>I never once expressed interest. But after a nice long session,

0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 5>he just knew. He just knew when to put loub

0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.600
<v Speaker 5>on his hand and slide it in, and it was

0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 5>amazing how he could just tell and he could read

0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 5>my body and it happened without any dialogue, any communication.

0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:15.360
<v Speaker 5>Now to clarify, that's not what I tell other people

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 5>to do, and that's not whatever to say, Like, that's

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 5>like I would tell everybody to, you know, communicate, talk

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 5>to somebody, train, carefully, use toys. Like I don't think

0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.600
<v Speaker 5>that the way that I got into fisting is necessarily

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:29.360
<v Speaker 5>a way that I would prescribe other people to get

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 5>into fisting.

0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:31.600
<v Speaker 3>Just to put that out there, Yeah, I mean that

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 3>seems kind of as a person who's like intofisting, like

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 3>that feels I don't want to say crazy, but like

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, you're just sort of like it just

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 3>sort of happened one day, you know. But I do understand,

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 3>like as a fitting top, Like do understand being able

0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 3>to read someone's body and knowing when they're ready for it,

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 3>because the body will tell you.

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:54.920
<v Speaker 4>The body will tell you yeah, and my body was

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:56.160
<v Speaker 4>just like read, let's go.

0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Was it kind of tricky for you to get into

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.080
<v Speaker 1>the rhythm of it at first?

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:03.320
<v Speaker 5>No, I found it very difficult. And I think a

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 5>lot of first time fisters run into this issue where

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 5>I have my first experience it's a ton of fun.

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.800
<v Speaker 5>I love it, I want to do it again. And then,

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.560
<v Speaker 5>for the first time ever, I have to start communicating

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 5>this to potential partners. And it was actually quite difficult

0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:20.320
<v Speaker 5>from that point on because there seemed to be a

0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 5>strange resistance to playing with a beginner, and I talk

0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 5>to a lot of beginners now and that seems to

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.640
<v Speaker 5>still be the case, which is really unfortunate. And I

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 5>feel like sometimes fisting Twitter and fisting media exacerbates this

0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.439
<v Speaker 5>problem that we as a community tend to kind of

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:39.199
<v Speaker 5>prioritize very advanced bodies and very advanced tolls, and we

0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.920
<v Speaker 5>don't necessarily make enough space for the beginners.

0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:45.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think, as a fisting top who like

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:49.240
<v Speaker 3>we want, I have really big hands, and so beginners

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:53.920
<v Speaker 3>aren't always my favorite because the time commitment portion of

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:57.079
<v Speaker 3>it I don't always have. And it's not because I'm

0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:59.400
<v Speaker 3>not interested in helping someone learn and grow. It's just

0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:03.079
<v Speaker 3>because it's like I've only got two hours on a Wednesday.

0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 5>There actually are guys out there who really erotically enjoy

0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.559
<v Speaker 5>the process of training and working somebody open, and that's

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.679
<v Speaker 5>the dream, right, Like, if you're a beginner, you kind

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.199
<v Speaker 5>of want to find these guys that like opening a

0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:18.560
<v Speaker 5>new butt is kind of their fetish. So I would

0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.520
<v Speaker 5>tell everybody to maybe make that your focus in the beginning,

0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:24.760
<v Speaker 5>because yeah, I've trained beginner bottoms too, and they're always like,

0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:26.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna come over on Tuesday and I'm gonna take

0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:29.160
<v Speaker 5>my first fist today and I'm like, Babe, I don't

0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:30.720
<v Speaker 5>know how to tell you this, but it's not gonna

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:32.520
<v Speaker 5>happen the first time we try it. It's not gonna

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.120
<v Speaker 5>happen the first three times we try it. And that

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.960
<v Speaker 5>is that is a huge commitment. That's a big time commitment. Yeah,

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:39.439
<v Speaker 5>I'm in New Yorker, I've got things to do.

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she's a busy girl.

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 3>She's a busy girl.

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:45.360
<v Speaker 1>She's only got time for fingers today.

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:45.760
<v Speaker 3>Sorry.

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Right.

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:48.680
<v Speaker 1>So then what does that kind of entail? What should

0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:50.280
<v Speaker 1>people expect if they're kind of starting out.

0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 5>I think most people go to toys, and that's my

0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.480
<v Speaker 5>advice to most people training or just starting out. One

0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 5>thing I commonly tell people is that you don't advance

0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:03.160
<v Speaker 5>as fister with fists. You advance through toy play and

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:06.080
<v Speaker 5>solo sessions, because it's really about learning your own body

0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:10.559
<v Speaker 5>and how something just feels up there. It sounds very unsexy,

0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:11.679
<v Speaker 5>but you do have to kind of treat it like

0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:15.079
<v Speaker 5>a gym membership, like once a week, I'm gonna sit

0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 5>on this butt plug and go really slow and use

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.559
<v Speaker 5>lots of lube.

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 4>And make it sort of my solo time.

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.079
<v Speaker 5>And you do kind of have to keep a schedule,

0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 5>like if you're really seriously training, some people say you

0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:26.959
<v Speaker 5>should be doing some ass play once a week, some

0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:29.200
<v Speaker 5>people say it a couple times a week. I would

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.960
<v Speaker 5>say at least every two weeks. You're not necessarily fisting

0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 5>with other people every time. In fact, most of those

0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:37.719
<v Speaker 5>times should be solo and with yourself, And that's what

0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 5>I recommend people do.

0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:39.360
<v Speaker 4>That's what I did.

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Did you have a mentor to sort of help you

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:42.720
<v Speaker 3>along in this process?

0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:47.520
<v Speaker 5>Actually, I just met fisting friends fisting sisters. Yes, yeah,

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 5>and we're still really close because of it. Like, if

0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:53.319
<v Speaker 5>you're starting off as a fist bottom, your best friends

0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:57.080
<v Speaker 5>are other fist bottoms who can tell you toy recommendations

0:10:57.160 --> 0:10:59.839
<v Speaker 5>and their favorite lube. And yeah, it's like little things

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:02.040
<v Speaker 5>like that that you don't really think about that you

0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.160
<v Speaker 5>need other bottoms to coach you through.

0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Now We've talked a bit about fisting bottoms, but I'm

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>wondering if you have any advice for first time fisting tops.

0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the conception for a lot of fisting

0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 1>tops is like, oh, well, you just throw some glub

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 1>on your hand and like slowly slide in and you're good. Right, Like,

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:20.599
<v Speaker 1>what do fisting tops need to know and what do

0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>they need to be bringing to the table.

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 5>The saying in the fisting community is the best tops

0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:28.199
<v Speaker 5>or verse guys or you know, former bottoms. I've known

0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.240
<v Speaker 5>some tops that are very, very naturally skilled tops that

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:33.560
<v Speaker 5>have never taken a fist or aren't interested in taking

0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:36.440
<v Speaker 5>a fist themselves and not interested in bottoming, but they

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:40.280
<v Speaker 5>are rarer. I think every top could benefit from at

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:43.839
<v Speaker 5>least trying to bottom a little bit, because otherwise you

0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:46.920
<v Speaker 5>don't really know where you're going and how it feels.

0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:49.640
<v Speaker 5>And I became a better top after I had been

0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 5>fisting for years, and now I'm very very verse, and

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.800
<v Speaker 5>I fist top just as much as fist bottom. Now,

0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 5>if you're just starting off and you're not interested in bottoming,

0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.439
<v Speaker 5>I'd say learn from a very experienced fist botto and

0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.640
<v Speaker 5>ask questions and ask what feels good and it's okay

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 5>to do kind of a clinical training session. I've done

0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.079
<v Speaker 5>that with beginner tops sore. I've been like, look, this

0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:11.120
<v Speaker 5>isn't going to be sexy. This might not be the

0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:13.319
<v Speaker 5>hottest session you ever have, but like, I'm going to

0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:14.920
<v Speaker 5>go through the steps and be like, here's how you

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:18.319
<v Speaker 5>mix the lube, here's how you lay down blankets, and

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:21.000
<v Speaker 5>then I'll literally like do a diagram of my hand

0:12:21.120 --> 0:12:23.120
<v Speaker 5>and I'll be like, okay, you start this way, and

0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:26.280
<v Speaker 5>then it's just stop, go, stop, go, kind of traffic

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:29.680
<v Speaker 5>light telling him when to push forward, when to pull back.

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:32.200
<v Speaker 5>And it's not a sexy session, but it is how

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.840
<v Speaker 5>you train somebody to top. And I think every aspiring

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.800
<v Speaker 5>fistop needs a few sessions like that.

0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 3>So what feels good about fisting? In your own words?

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 5>So, I can't explain the pleasure behind it except that

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:49.160
<v Speaker 5>it's the best orgasm I can feel. It's the greatest

0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:50.880
<v Speaker 5>physical pleasure I can experience.

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 4>And I don't know why.

0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:56.560
<v Speaker 3>Now there is something about watching someone get fisted and.

0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.720
<v Speaker 1>You're getting lost in the visual Right now now I am.

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.040
<v Speaker 3>I'm thinking about the last time I fisted behind and

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.880
<v Speaker 3>I see it with you. It was truly magical and

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 3>just watching that look on their face and like the

0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:15.080
<v Speaker 3>pleasure that their body is receiving, it is like top tier.

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:16.240
<v Speaker 3>It's magic.

0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 5>We You can also have an anal orgasm, right, Yes,

0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:22.760
<v Speaker 5>I think I don't know if I've ever ejaculated from fisting,

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:26.560
<v Speaker 5>but I've had like a full body shaking anal orgasm.

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's the whole New world.

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Orgasms are kind of the best thing out there. Honestly,

0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:36.600
<v Speaker 3>They're really because you can have like multiple of them,

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:39.839
<v Speaker 3>you can have back to back, and like it took

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:41.600
<v Speaker 3>me a long time to experience one.

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:44.720
<v Speaker 5>And actually the first time I had an anal orgasm

0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.960
<v Speaker 5>was at a big group fisting party where they were

0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:50.800
<v Speaker 5>like fifteen slings set up and I swear it sounded

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:52.760
<v Speaker 5>like somebody was giving birth to a cow. I mean

0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:56.360
<v Speaker 5>I just yelled for minutes, like just shouted.

0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:58.640
<v Speaker 4>That was it. It was great.

0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So not to harsh the vibe in the room,

0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.199
<v Speaker 1>not to pull out my whole fist at once, but

0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious. I do want to know about some of

0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.480
<v Speaker 1>the risks involved with fisting. I know that some of

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:12.719
<v Speaker 1>them are highly stigmatized and exaggerated, but I know that

0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:14.959
<v Speaker 1>some are practical concerns that we have to think about.

0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:17.840
<v Speaker 1>What are some health and safety concerns that you'd encourage

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:18.920
<v Speaker 1>people to think about.

0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:22.400
<v Speaker 5>Several I mean, I've been fisting for well over a decade,

0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:24.720
<v Speaker 5>and I've been involved in the fisting scene, and i

0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 5>know multiple friends that have been in the emergency room

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.880
<v Speaker 5>that have had surgery, that have had such severe injuries

0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 5>that they will never be able to fist to the

0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:36.040
<v Speaker 5>same extent that they did before. If you get injured,

0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:39.080
<v Speaker 5>you can get permanent scar tissue inside your rectum, and

0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:42.600
<v Speaker 5>scar tissue doesn't stretch, so you can stop even your

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.280
<v Speaker 5>regular like not even fisting, but just anal sex life

0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 5>for the rest of your life. So it is a

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:50.160
<v Speaker 5>high risk sex sport. But you can go too fast

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 5>in the very beginning and push it, and because you're tight,

0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:55.360
<v Speaker 5>you're going to get hurt or when you're going from

0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 5>like punches to like elbow, you know, and there's a

0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 5>lot of fists life between those two places, and it's

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:06.120
<v Speaker 5>always in those two spots very beginning or pretty advanced

0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:09.080
<v Speaker 5>that people seem to get pretty badly hurt. So people

0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 5>do need to think about gloves is a way to

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:17.200
<v Speaker 5>moderate risk and actually just going really slow and listening

0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 5>to your body and obviously using proper loube. But the

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:26.400
<v Speaker 5>biggest predicator of injury potential infesting is fisting on kims,

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 5>on substances that override your own ability to read pain

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:33.960
<v Speaker 5>and read your own bodies limits. And everybody I know

0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.200
<v Speaker 5>who's gotten hurt and fisting has done so high. They

0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.960
<v Speaker 5>were pushing it past their own limit and they weren't

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 5>listening to their body, and that's how you get hurt.

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, thank you for mentioning the kims and fisting,

0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 3>because I think as a sober person, it took me

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.440
<v Speaker 3>a long time to get back into fisting sober. It

0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:53.480
<v Speaker 3>took a lot of conversations with people who do it,

0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.720
<v Speaker 3>and just like being able to understand that, like fisting

0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 3>can happen without kims, and it can happen without poppers.

0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 3>Like I know people who take doubles without poppers, which

0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.480
<v Speaker 3>is mind boggling to me, but they exist.

0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, I used to term doubles. Is that exactly what

0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 1>it sounds like?

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:09.240
<v Speaker 6>It?

0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 4>Sure?

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:12.880
<v Speaker 6>Thank you?

0:16:13.680 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you mean two heads? Double?

0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:16.800
<v Speaker 4>Doubles are my favorite thing?

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Interesting, You guys should form a doubles team and then

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 1>we'll go bowling.

0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:20.680
<v Speaker 3>It'll be great.

0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:20.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 1>So I kind of wanted to address another misnomer. I

0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>think for a lot of folks, there's this idea that

0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.720
<v Speaker 1>fisting quote unquote ruins other forms of sex, that like,

0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:35.200
<v Speaker 1>once you've found fisting, you never want to do anything else.

0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 1>So I'm curious what would you say to folks that

0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:38.120
<v Speaker 1>have that concern.

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 5>I have been fisting for well over ten years, and

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.200
<v Speaker 5>I love other kinds of sex, and I have a

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.120
<v Speaker 5>lot of other kinds of sex. I don't know any

0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:49.520
<v Speaker 5>fisters who only fist. I don't know a single fister

0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 5>who like that's it.

0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:53.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I do have a friend who.

0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Always have a friend. If there's anybody that has a

0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:00.960
<v Speaker 1>friend and it's Chris.

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.680
<v Speaker 3>She does have other sacks, but she's less likely to

0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:08.399
<v Speaker 3>prioritize that over a fisting appointment totally.

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:10.400
<v Speaker 5>Like I went on a date recently with this guy

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:12.840
<v Speaker 5>and he wasn't into fisting, and we had a couple

0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:15.360
<v Speaker 5>of dates and he was like, so are you going

0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:17.440
<v Speaker 5>back and I'm gonna fucket your place? And I was like,

0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:20.080
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna be honest with you, dude. If I'm douching tonight,

0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:23.600
<v Speaker 5>it's for fisting and you're not into fisting, so sometimes

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:26.400
<v Speaker 5>sometimes yeah, Like if you're gonna put in the work

0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:28.120
<v Speaker 5>of cleaning out, yeah.

0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 3>And that's the way it comes down to. He's like,

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 3>if I'm douchinge, then I'm going to get a fist.

0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:36.120
<v Speaker 1>What does douching and preparation for fisting look like compared

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.280
<v Speaker 1>to getting fucked by a dick.

0:17:39.640 --> 0:17:42.119
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if there's a single monolithic answer to that.

0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:45.960
<v Speaker 5>Because some guys, these mysterious creatures out there, have these

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:50.600
<v Speaker 5>magical golden rectums that just work after one poop and

0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:53.440
<v Speaker 5>they're spotless and they're fine. They tend to be vegan,

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:57.960
<v Speaker 5>and some people, like I fully admit here that I'm

0:17:58.000 --> 0:17:59.920
<v Speaker 5>one of the people that takes a little bit longer,

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:02.320
<v Speaker 5>or my body's a little bit more funky. I have

0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.320
<v Speaker 5>lactose in tolerance, and so I have to be much

0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:06.520
<v Speaker 5>more careful with what I eat beforehand, and so my

0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:08.800
<v Speaker 5>duching regimen is going to be completely different. I know

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:11.239
<v Speaker 5>guys who spend twenty minutes and they're fine, they can

0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:13.160
<v Speaker 5>get fisted all night. And I know guys who spend

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:16.360
<v Speaker 5>two hours getting ready and they're like, okay. I think

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.159
<v Speaker 5>I'm like mostly okay, and it all depends on your piping,

0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 5>your body, your system, but duching's not good for you,

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:24.680
<v Speaker 5>and I would tell most people to try and minimize

0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:27.359
<v Speaker 5>the duching process as much as you can, especially since I.

0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:27.960
<v Speaker 4>Came to Europe.

0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:31.080
<v Speaker 5>I'm actually one of those people that I'm completely comfortable

0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.240
<v Speaker 5>with just giving it a shot. If it's just a dick,

0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:35.879
<v Speaker 5>I'll be like, well, let's just try it and if not,

0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:38.639
<v Speaker 5>we can wash up after, Whereas I would never do

0:18:38.760 --> 0:18:40.879
<v Speaker 5>that with fisting. I would never be like, let's just

0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:41.920
<v Speaker 5>give it a shot and see.

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 4>How it goes. Like No, with fisting, I'm gonna imagine.

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:48.560
<v Speaker 3>Three hours later, Yeah, yeah, What have you learned about

0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:49.439
<v Speaker 3>yourself through fisting?

0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:53.320
<v Speaker 5>Actually, I've learned a lot about my gender, or the

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 5>idea of gender, because when I first came out, I

0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:59.240
<v Speaker 5>was like hard gay, like strictly gay.

0:19:00.040 --> 0:19:01.600
<v Speaker 4>I felt very very.

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 5>Sis and I went through a whole gender journey and

0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 5>I still feel very sis gender. But fisting gave me

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:09.520
<v Speaker 5>this space to sort of challenge that, and it certainly

0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:13.119
<v Speaker 5>challenged my sexual orientation. And thanks to fisting, I realized

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:16.280
<v Speaker 5>I'm not strictly gay. I will have sex with any

0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:20.000
<v Speaker 5>person of any gender. I have sex with men, women, transmn,

0:19:20.119 --> 0:19:22.760
<v Speaker 5>trans women, and the great thing about fisting is that

0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:26.640
<v Speaker 5>gender wise, it's very equalizing. I've met so many amazing

0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:29.639
<v Speaker 5>fist toop trans men who they're like, my hands are

0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:33.639
<v Speaker 5>my dick, and they feel so empowered by fisting because

0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:37.440
<v Speaker 5>everybody has hands in a butthole, so gender really becomes

0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:40.600
<v Speaker 5>irrelevant in fisting. We all have the same parts, and

0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:42.639
<v Speaker 5>anybody can be a top and anybody can be a

0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.679
<v Speaker 5>bott of. Anybody can be dominant, anybody can be subby.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:47.880
<v Speaker 5>I've never had a very strong connection to my dick.

0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:49.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm not a big dick guy. And there was a

0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 5>moment a few years ago in my fisting journey where

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:54.360
<v Speaker 5>I was like, oh my god, what does that mean?

0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:56.760
<v Speaker 5>Am I broken? Shouldn't I have a strong connection to

0:19:56.840 --> 0:19:59.920
<v Speaker 5>my dick? Does that mean that I'm not cisgendered? Should

0:19:59.920 --> 0:20:02.920
<v Speaker 5>I start questioning this? And in the end I came

0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.720
<v Speaker 5>to the understanding that I'm very cis gender. But I'm

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:08.640
<v Speaker 5>grateful that fisting gave me a space to ask those questions.

0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:11.320
<v Speaker 5>You know, when I was like hard fist bottoming a lot,

0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:14.760
<v Speaker 5>I felt very connected to feminine energy, especially when I

0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:17.600
<v Speaker 5>started adding like laingerie and stuff like that. And I

0:20:17.800 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 5>find that that's true with a lot of fisters. We

0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:24.040
<v Speaker 5>tend to be really comfortable with gender fluidity, with non

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:28.760
<v Speaker 5>traditional gender presentation because fisting as a culture renders gender

0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:30.840
<v Speaker 5>kind of mood. We all have the same parts, we

0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:31.959
<v Speaker 5>all have the same bodies.

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:33.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean, like one time I was.

0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:36.440
<v Speaker 5>At Berkheim and I was like standing in a corner,

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:39.800
<v Speaker 5>like in my little red Jox trap and a tiny,

0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:43.760
<v Speaker 5>petite Cis woman came up to me and like cruised

0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:46.360
<v Speaker 5>me hard, and she was like, hey, I see you're

0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 5>wearing a red Jox trap. Does that mean you're into fisting?

0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:52.639
<v Speaker 5>And I was like yes, and she was like cool,

0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:55.040
<v Speaker 5>I have gloves and I have lube. I'm a fist top.

0:20:55.119 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 5>And I was like fuck yeah. And in that moment

0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:01.720
<v Speaker 5>I liked her energy and I was like, oh, you're

0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:05.439
<v Speaker 5>a domb like you're alpha energy, and she was like tiny,

0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:07.160
<v Speaker 5>you know so much short. I'm like to her, I'm

0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.520
<v Speaker 5>a relatively big guy. And I swear she could have

0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:12.720
<v Speaker 5>led me around that club on a leash, like she

0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 5>was complete dumb energy. And in that moment I became

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.959
<v Speaker 5>complete sub energy. And it was beautiful because we were

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.520
<v Speaker 5>both into fisting, and so we spoke the same language,

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 5>and so bodies gender. It all felt so irrelevant. We connected,

0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:28.440
<v Speaker 5>We linked, and she was this amazing fist top and

0:21:28.520 --> 0:21:32.399
<v Speaker 5>I was this quivering little fist bottom and it was great.

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:35.399
<v Speaker 5>It was so hot and connections like that happened in fisting.

0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:36.000
<v Speaker 4>It was great.

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:38.040
<v Speaker 1>This feels like a great place to take a break.

0:21:38.560 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 1>So when we come back, we're going to be asking

0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Alex for more tips and tricks for first time fisters

0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:43.919
<v Speaker 1>and the fist curious.

0:21:44.280 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 3>Stay tuned, Welcome back. We're here with Alex Cheves, writer

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:56.840
<v Speaker 3>and expert fister, and in this act we're going to

0:21:56.880 --> 0:21:59.560
<v Speaker 3>be pumping Alex for more practical advice that you can

0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:01.920
<v Speaker 3>use the blossom into the fullest fister you can be.

0:22:02.560 --> 0:22:04.960
<v Speaker 3>So in your book you talk about being HIV positive

0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:07.600
<v Speaker 3>and I'm wondering, how does that relate to your fisting practice.

0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 5>Well, I only started fisting after I was positive, so

0:22:11.080 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. I've been positive since before prep, so

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:17.879
<v Speaker 5>I still remember like dating before anybody knew about PREP

0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:21.920
<v Speaker 5>and how awful it was. But actually, interestingly enough, when

0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:24.480
<v Speaker 5>I first tested positive, and I was in my junior

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:28.840
<v Speaker 5>year in college, I had a really progressive, good doctor,

0:22:29.520 --> 0:22:31.240
<v Speaker 5>and at that time it took a long time to

0:22:31.280 --> 0:22:34.080
<v Speaker 5>get on medication. I would have to wait months before

0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:35.800
<v Speaker 5>I got my first meds. And so he was like,

0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:39.159
<v Speaker 5>you know, there are safer sex practices that don't involve

0:22:39.200 --> 0:22:41.920
<v Speaker 5>fluid transmission, and fisting is one of them, So if

0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:44.200
<v Speaker 5>you want to try that, And in that moment, I

0:22:44.359 --> 0:22:46.200
<v Speaker 5>was like, I would never.

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:52.199
<v Speaker 1>And here we are, and here we are playing doubles.

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, has PREP changed the fisting scene at all for you?

0:22:56.840 --> 0:22:59.879
<v Speaker 5>I don't know if PREP changed fisting for me, but

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.280
<v Speaker 5>PREP profoundly changed dating for me.

0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:02.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:05.920
<v Speaker 5>I actually tested positive the year that PREP was approved

0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:08.680
<v Speaker 5>as a drug, but it seemed to take about two

0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:11.160
<v Speaker 5>years at least in my memory, for it to become

0:23:11.640 --> 0:23:14.920
<v Speaker 5>part of the gay ethos. And for those two years,

0:23:15.320 --> 0:23:17.840
<v Speaker 5>the minute I told somebody that I was positive, I

0:23:17.920 --> 0:23:21.440
<v Speaker 5>got blocked on every platform and every app. But the

0:23:21.680 --> 0:23:25.440
<v Speaker 5>fear in the stigma was much higher, and PREP profoundly

0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:28.040
<v Speaker 5>changed life for me, and I think for most HIV

0:23:28.119 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 5>positive people, because suddenly negative people could protect themselves and

0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:36.040
<v Speaker 5>so they weren't as powerless. That certainly empowered people who

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:38.600
<v Speaker 5>are HIV negative, but empower people who are HIV positive too,

0:23:38.760 --> 0:23:41.440
<v Speaker 5>because it made the stakes of having sex with someone

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 5>a little bit lighter, a little bit more easy.

0:23:44.640 --> 0:23:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we've talked a little bit about like Cynthia Slater

0:23:46.960 --> 0:23:50.320
<v Speaker 1>and some fisting trailblazers throughout history on the podcast. But

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious, what's your sense of fisting as a historical practice.

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:56.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, we read back and it seems like it

0:23:56.080 --> 0:23:58.720
<v Speaker 1>was quite popular, especially in the Bay Area in the seventies.

0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 1>So what is you sense of how like fisting has

0:24:02.080 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 1>evolved throughout the years or sort of its historical context

0:24:05.119 --> 0:24:05.920
<v Speaker 1>within our community.

0:24:06.040 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 5>I mean, we know that fisting has been around, like

0:24:08.640 --> 0:24:11.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean in versions of the kamasuture, there's inserting a

0:24:11.280 --> 0:24:13.760
<v Speaker 5>hand into a into an orifice, but we're doing a

0:24:13.800 --> 0:24:14.760
<v Speaker 5>lot more than that now.

0:24:16.160 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Shoulder deep, shoulders, yeah, hands coming out of my mouth. Yeah,

0:24:22.920 --> 0:24:25.159
<v Speaker 1>that's the point. I love your ambition. I love you

0:24:25.320 --> 0:24:26.159
<v Speaker 1>what a trendsetter.

0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:28.240
<v Speaker 5>I got really lucky in the fact that one of

0:24:28.320 --> 0:24:33.000
<v Speaker 5>my first regular playmates was this very experienced had been

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:35.520
<v Speaker 5>fisting for forty years, Like he was fisting at the

0:24:35.680 --> 0:24:40.159
<v Speaker 5>underground fisting clubs in San Francisco back in the mid seventies,

0:24:40.200 --> 0:24:42.480
<v Speaker 5>and so he'd been fisting for most of his life

0:24:42.560 --> 0:24:44.680
<v Speaker 5>by that point, and so he really was a great

0:24:44.720 --> 0:24:47.879
<v Speaker 5>partner to learn from and train for and trained with. Actually,

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:51.879
<v Speaker 5>one time I just asked him what suddenly made us

0:24:51.920 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 5>start doing this? And he was very blunt. He said,

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:59.919
<v Speaker 5>when synthetic recreational drugs became widely available in the American

0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:03.040
<v Speaker 5>public and ammal nitrates came out, he was like, fisting

0:25:03.119 --> 0:25:06.159
<v Speaker 5>did take off. The intensity and the extreme ways that

0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:09.399
<v Speaker 5>we play in festing do go hand in hand with

0:25:09.480 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 5>substances a lot more so than I would say that

0:25:11.560 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 5>another fetish scenes. And I think that only recently is

0:25:13.800 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 5>there a generation of queer men who are critiquing that

0:25:17.440 --> 0:25:21.560
<v Speaker 5>and re looking at fisting sober because we've lost so

0:25:21.640 --> 0:25:24.600
<v Speaker 5>many friends. We've had so many friends struggle with addiction issues,

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:26.720
<v Speaker 5>and fisting is kind of a gateway drug.

0:25:27.000 --> 0:25:29.359
<v Speaker 1>Another thing that I think scares people away from fisting.

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:33.359
<v Speaker 1>We got to talk about the prolapses. I think some

0:25:33.560 --> 0:25:36.320
<v Speaker 1>people really love seeing them and some people get really

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:38.919
<v Speaker 1>freaked out when they see them. And I don't think

0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:41.200
<v Speaker 1>prolapses are like specific to fisting, but they seem to

0:25:41.280 --> 0:25:44.359
<v Speaker 1>go hand in hand if you will back in by

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:46.920
<v Speaker 1>porn Day's people love to like show their low prolapse

0:25:46.960 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 1>and the calm leaking out at the end, and we

0:25:48.400 --> 0:25:50.159
<v Speaker 1>all clap and it would be amazing. Some of them

0:25:50.200 --> 0:25:51.720
<v Speaker 1>were bigger than others. I'm not here to I'm not

0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:54.880
<v Speaker 1>a size queen, right, but I'm wondering when it comes

0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to fisting, are there any risks to one's body in

0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:00.920
<v Speaker 1>terms of prolapses? And then how much of it is

0:26:00.960 --> 0:26:03.679
<v Speaker 1>just sort of like fear at seeing the inside of someone.

0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:07.480
<v Speaker 5>I have to be very upfront and say, I'm not

0:26:07.680 --> 0:26:09.760
<v Speaker 5>a doctor and I'm not a medical professional, so I

0:26:09.800 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 5>don't know if I'm the most qualified to answer that.

0:26:12.520 --> 0:26:14.639
<v Speaker 5>I know a lot of people who do prolapse. Do

0:26:14.840 --> 0:26:19.280
<v Speaker 5>I personally believe that prolapsing is completely harmless? No, I don't,

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 5>But I don't think that fisting as a whole is

0:26:21.960 --> 0:26:24.679
<v Speaker 5>completely harmless. There is a certain point at which fisting

0:26:24.720 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 5>does become body modification. Yeah, in part because of fisting Twitter,

0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:31.480
<v Speaker 5>we're all competing and uploading our videos and trying to

0:26:31.480 --> 0:26:34.720
<v Speaker 5>outdo each other. And over the last ten years, I

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:37.320
<v Speaker 5>think that the frequency at which I hear about my

0:26:37.400 --> 0:26:41.560
<v Speaker 5>friends getting injured has increased, and it seems that the

0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:46.320
<v Speaker 5>level of intensity at which people are fisting has dramatically increased,

0:26:46.359 --> 0:26:49.240
<v Speaker 5>and with that will come more risk because more intense

0:26:49.280 --> 0:26:52.720
<v Speaker 5>fisting means a higher likelihood of injury. Fisting hasn't been

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:55.320
<v Speaker 5>like this mainstream ever. So I will be one of

0:26:55.359 --> 0:26:58.639
<v Speaker 5>the first generations to have grown up in a fisting

0:26:58.720 --> 0:27:01.840
<v Speaker 5>community that I want get bigger. By the time I'm

0:27:02.240 --> 0:27:04.359
<v Speaker 5>what forty to fifty, I'll have been fisting for like

0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:07.040
<v Speaker 5>most of my sexual development, and so will have all

0:27:07.119 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 5>my friends. And I'm really curious whether or not when

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:13.119
<v Speaker 5>we're there, we'll look back and say, oh, that fisting

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 5>is dangerous. There very well could be long term health

0:27:16.040 --> 0:27:18.760
<v Speaker 5>effects and deleterious health effects that come as a result

0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:21.680
<v Speaker 5>of frequent fisting. We actually just don't know because in

0:27:21.720 --> 0:27:25.359
<v Speaker 5>the pre Internet days, fisting was niche and obscure and small,

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 5>and so we just didn't have the kind of data

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:30.400
<v Speaker 5>on whether or not fisting was safe long term.

0:27:30.480 --> 0:27:31.760
<v Speaker 4>And let's face it, in the.

0:27:31.800 --> 0:27:34.879
<v Speaker 5>Eighties, everybody died, you know, and so we lost a

0:27:34.920 --> 0:27:37.880
<v Speaker 5>whole generation, and so we lose that data. Yeah, now

0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:40.800
<v Speaker 5>that people are living longer and queer men are living

0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:44.200
<v Speaker 5>full lives as fisters, we've yet to see if fisting

0:27:44.359 --> 0:27:45.480
<v Speaker 5>is safe long term.

0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:47.879
<v Speaker 3>I also feel like the age of people who are

0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:51.920
<v Speaker 3>interested in fisting is getting younger and younger. Right Like

0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:55.159
<v Speaker 3>when I started, obviously I was really young, but like

0:27:55.280 --> 0:27:57.199
<v Speaker 3>the only people that were into fisting were in their

0:27:57.240 --> 0:28:00.520
<v Speaker 3>forties and fifties and beyond. And now I know twenty

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:05.480
<v Speaker 3>three year olds who are gape investors, you know, like advance.

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:08.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, you're twenty three, what age should you start

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:09.680
<v Speaker 3>this process?

0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:10.119
<v Speaker 1>You know?

0:28:10.400 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 5>When I was twenty one, I remember when I was

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:16.440
<v Speaker 5>asking for somebody to train me or somebody to fist

0:28:16.520 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 5>with me, the most common response was concern. Advanced fisting

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:24.280
<v Speaker 5>guys would be like, you're too young, you shouldn't be

0:28:24.359 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 5>doing this yet. Which is interesting because now I know

0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:30.520
<v Speaker 5>twenty one year olds that are like way past where

0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:34.120
<v Speaker 5>I am at, and that is fisting Twitter. That when

0:28:34.240 --> 0:28:37.720
<v Speaker 5>something's regularly available and at your fingertips online, more and

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:39.120
<v Speaker 5>more people are going to do it at a younger

0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:42.000
<v Speaker 5>at younger age, and there is a competitive element to

0:28:42.080 --> 0:28:44.920
<v Speaker 5>fisting that really I think is the biggest danger in

0:28:45.000 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 5>the scene and the biggest problem in the scene is

0:28:47.000 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 5>the way it's talked about online is that it's a

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:52.400
<v Speaker 5>goal oriented fetish. Everyone's like, I want to get to

0:28:52.840 --> 0:28:54.920
<v Speaker 5>doubles or I want to get to punches, or I

0:28:54.960 --> 0:28:57.960
<v Speaker 5>want to get past the elbow, and like they see

0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:02.080
<v Speaker 5>it now as this fetish of growth and development that

0:29:02.200 --> 0:29:05.080
<v Speaker 5>comes with like markers and tears, and I want to

0:29:05.120 --> 0:29:06.680
<v Speaker 5>get to that marker, and then I want to get

0:29:06.720 --> 0:29:08.960
<v Speaker 5>to that marker. And that is the wrong way to

0:29:09.040 --> 0:29:11.000
<v Speaker 5>view fisting, and that's how people get hurt. That's a

0:29:11.040 --> 0:29:13.440
<v Speaker 5>really dangerous way to you fisting, because the reality is

0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:16.760
<v Speaker 5>that some bodies can't fist to the obo. Some people

0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:21.840
<v Speaker 5>have anatomy that can't fist deep. And by prioritizing and

0:29:22.120 --> 0:29:25.800
<v Speaker 5>celebrating the very, very advanced fisters, it becomes an issue

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:29.280
<v Speaker 5>of like ableism and access almost like some bodies simply

0:29:29.360 --> 0:29:32.160
<v Speaker 5>can't do that. And if we make that desirable, then

0:29:32.200 --> 0:29:37.080
<v Speaker 5>people will feel like their bodies aren't desirable. And that's

0:29:37.440 --> 0:29:39.560
<v Speaker 5>not the kind of fisting scene that I want to

0:29:39.600 --> 0:29:42.040
<v Speaker 5>be part of that I participated.

0:29:41.760 --> 0:29:43.880
<v Speaker 3>So ox, I would love to know what is in

0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:46.680
<v Speaker 3>your fisting kit, Like, oh, you have a go bag.

0:29:47.040 --> 0:29:50.320
<v Speaker 5>Fisting kit will vary if I'm going as a top

0:29:50.440 --> 0:29:52.880
<v Speaker 5>or as a bottom. My fisting kit at the top

0:29:53.080 --> 0:29:57.040
<v Speaker 5>is pretty it's pretty minimal. I mean, there's not a

0:29:57.120 --> 0:30:00.920
<v Speaker 5>whole lot I need, so as a bottom usually bring toys.

0:30:01.320 --> 0:30:04.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm a big toy queen. I always make my own loob.

0:30:04.360 --> 0:30:08.080
<v Speaker 5>Everybody has a different kind of lube that they like,

0:30:08.400 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 5>and there's a battle among fisters about who has the

0:30:11.520 --> 0:30:13.880
<v Speaker 5>best formula. I have the best formula.

0:30:15.640 --> 0:30:18.280
<v Speaker 3>Are you willing to share? What is your concoction?

0:30:18.840 --> 0:30:21.360
<v Speaker 5>You need a blender for good loob or I use

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 5>X lube and I mix Crisco into it. And when

0:30:25.280 --> 0:30:27.160
<v Speaker 5>I was in the US, I used to use it

0:30:27.280 --> 0:30:29.520
<v Speaker 5>was like a corn Huskers lotion. Used to be able

0:30:29.560 --> 0:30:31.400
<v Speaker 5>to get it at like feed in seed stores. It

0:30:31.480 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 5>was a kind of calming I know, right. It was

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 5>like this cheap hand lotion for guys who worked out

0:30:37.200 --> 0:30:39.000
<v Speaker 5>in the fields. And I used to mix a little

0:30:39.000 --> 0:30:42.280
<v Speaker 5>bit of corn huskers lotion into my concoction of jlube

0:30:42.520 --> 0:30:45.720
<v Speaker 5>and Crisco, and I would actually add a tiny little

0:30:45.800 --> 0:30:49.920
<v Speaker 5>dash of clove oil because clove is a natural anti inflammatory.

0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:52.760
<v Speaker 5>Mix it in a blender and it's perferfect.

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:55.640
<v Speaker 1>So I'm curious. I think we've all seen like the

0:30:55.680 --> 0:30:58.360
<v Speaker 1>retro photos from like clubs in the meatpacking district with

0:30:58.560 --> 0:31:02.160
<v Speaker 1>like giant things of chris Like. It feels like Crisco

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.080
<v Speaker 1>was sort of the fisting lube of the past. It's

0:31:05.120 --> 0:31:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the throwback, it's the nostalgia factor. I'm shocked to hear

0:31:07.920 --> 0:31:11.320
<v Speaker 1>that it is still used, and I'm curious, what's sort

0:31:11.360 --> 0:31:13.680
<v Speaker 1>of the difference between something like Crisco and then are

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:17.360
<v Speaker 1>like alphabet of lubes that we have now like klube,

0:31:17.440 --> 0:31:18.400
<v Speaker 1>jlube x lube.

0:31:18.920 --> 0:31:22.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, Crisco doesn't have to be mixed, so that's the thing. Crisco.

0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 5>You just open it up and go the letter lubes

0:31:25.720 --> 0:31:29.640
<v Speaker 5>like klube X lube, jlube, they start off as a

0:31:29.680 --> 0:31:34.080
<v Speaker 5>powder and when you add water you turn them into lubes.

0:31:34.120 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 4>You have to make them.

0:31:35.640 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 5>There's drawbacks to both. Crisco stains everything. Crisco's not toy

0:31:40.600 --> 0:31:43.640
<v Speaker 5>friendly to every kind of toy, whereas the water based ones,

0:31:43.680 --> 0:31:46.200
<v Speaker 5>the ones that you mix. The powder ones are toy

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:48.120
<v Speaker 5>friendly across the board. You can use them with any

0:31:48.200 --> 0:31:51.480
<v Speaker 5>kind of toy, silicone not silicone, whatever. And people like

0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:54.320
<v Speaker 5>the fact that the powder based fisting lubes are customizable,

0:31:54.840 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 5>so if you add more water, they become more runny,

0:31:57.440 --> 0:32:00.600
<v Speaker 5>more viscous. I like my loub to be really kind

0:32:00.600 --> 0:32:04.560
<v Speaker 5>of thick and goofy, which means I increase the ratio

0:32:04.680 --> 0:32:07.720
<v Speaker 5>of powder to water. But you can play with it,

0:32:07.840 --> 0:32:09.840
<v Speaker 5>right you kind of find what you like your own

0:32:09.920 --> 0:32:13.800
<v Speaker 5>mixture to be. But with the powder ones, jlube is

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 5>highly highly slippery. Excellute is highly slippery. I mean people

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:22.320
<v Speaker 5>fall all the time from this stuff. Whereas Crisco has

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:26.320
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more give, more grit, more texture. You're

0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:28.960
<v Speaker 5>not completely incapacitated if you're covered in it. You just

0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:32.360
<v Speaker 5>kind of slimy with the mixing loubs and you can't

0:32:32.440 --> 0:32:34.160
<v Speaker 5>like do anything with your hands until it's off.

0:32:34.280 --> 0:32:36.240
<v Speaker 3>It is kind of intense, and trying to wash it

0:32:36.360 --> 0:32:38.720
<v Speaker 3>off is like a process.

0:32:38.480 --> 0:32:39.480
<v Speaker 4>Absolute nightmare.

0:32:39.800 --> 0:32:42.880
<v Speaker 5>I mean, somebody watching this is gonna is gonna use

0:32:42.960 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 5>one of these lubes and they're gonna be scrubbing for

0:32:45.520 --> 0:32:47.400
<v Speaker 5>forty five minutes trying to get the shit off them.

0:32:47.760 --> 0:32:49.600
<v Speaker 5>And so I want to tell them right now the

0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:53.480
<v Speaker 5>secret is salt. Yeah, Salt breaks down the bond of

0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:56.160
<v Speaker 5>most powder loubes with the water and it makes it

0:32:56.280 --> 0:32:58.320
<v Speaker 5>run off. So get like a couple things of like

0:32:58.600 --> 0:33:01.640
<v Speaker 5>cheap grocery store or salt that has like the thing

0:33:01.760 --> 0:33:04.520
<v Speaker 5>you can really pour it and just cover your hands

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:07.800
<v Speaker 5>in salt, and never share loub because that, that too

0:33:08.040 --> 0:33:10.640
<v Speaker 5>is a good health rule. Yes, never share lube. I

0:33:10.720 --> 0:33:13.720
<v Speaker 5>want to broadcast that to everybody. Never share lube. It's

0:33:13.800 --> 0:33:14.240
<v Speaker 5>not safe.

0:33:14.680 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, because some folks put kims in theirs and they

0:33:17.240 --> 0:33:18.840
<v Speaker 3>don't tell you that they put kyms in there. So

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:21.600
<v Speaker 3>if you're like using your fisting and they're like all

0:33:21.640 --> 0:33:24.120
<v Speaker 3>of a sudden, you're like, oh, that's that's an interesting sensation.

0:33:24.280 --> 0:33:27.960
<v Speaker 1>See, yeah, that's spicy. Is there like a sanitation reason

0:33:28.000 --> 0:33:30.120
<v Speaker 1>as well? Like everyone's just like dipping their hands in, Like,

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:32.680
<v Speaker 1>what's the primary reason you should not be sharing lube?

0:33:32.800 --> 0:33:33.600
<v Speaker 4>Well, so think about it.

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 5>If there's like a central tub and your hand is

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:40.680
<v Speaker 5>inside someone's rectum and it's dipping back into the same

0:33:40.880 --> 0:33:44.920
<v Speaker 5>vat that hands and other people's rectums have been inside,

0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:48.920
<v Speaker 5>it's just an easy formula for infection and easily formula

0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:53.120
<v Speaker 5>for spreading gut bacteria. And that's how you walk home

0:33:53.160 --> 0:33:55.480
<v Speaker 5>from a fisting event with like H colorI and E.

0:33:55.600 --> 0:33:58.240
<v Speaker 4>Coli. Yeah, don't share loube.

0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 3>How should people find the sea insane partners to fists?

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:03.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, I think that's a really hard question

0:34:04.120 --> 0:34:06.280
<v Speaker 5>across all of gay sex, because it doesn't matter if

0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 5>you're into fisting or anything else. The tools that we

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:10.920
<v Speaker 5>have available to meet sex partners are the same. We

0:34:11.040 --> 0:34:14.160
<v Speaker 5>all have in person events and we have the Internet. Yeah,

0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:16.959
<v Speaker 5>if anything, I would say that people who are willing

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 5>to have a dialogue beforehand and talk about limits and

0:34:20.160 --> 0:34:22.920
<v Speaker 5>boundaries and experience is a good way to sort of

0:34:23.120 --> 0:34:26.120
<v Speaker 5>filter out the people who you shouldn't play with. One

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:27.920
<v Speaker 5>common thing that I did when I was just getting

0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:31.160
<v Speaker 5>started is I would meet a fist top and I

0:34:31.239 --> 0:34:33.160
<v Speaker 5>would ask him, oh, well, what kind of loob do

0:34:33.239 --> 0:34:36.000
<v Speaker 5>you like? And if he was just like, oh, you know,

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:40.919
<v Speaker 5>regular loob, I'd be like, I don't know, I don't think.

0:34:40.840 --> 0:34:45.800
<v Speaker 7>This is a matter yeah morning, well yeah really, but seriously,

0:34:45.920 --> 0:34:47.200
<v Speaker 7>like you do have to kind of use stuff like that.

0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:49.200
<v Speaker 7>And then if somebody was like, oh well I have

0:34:49.320 --> 0:34:52.239
<v Speaker 7>my special formula, I'm like, all right, good, you know

0:34:52.280 --> 0:34:55.359
<v Speaker 7>what you're doing. Somebody has that level of knowledge. It's

0:34:55.400 --> 0:34:56.759
<v Speaker 7>not a guarantee that they're going to be a good

0:34:56.800 --> 0:34:59.279
<v Speaker 7>fisting partner, but it does show that they know at

0:34:59.360 --> 0:35:01.680
<v Speaker 7>least a little bit about websisting entails.

0:35:01.920 --> 0:35:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, earlier we were talking about some of the potential

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:06.360
<v Speaker 1>risks of harm and stuff that folks should look out for.

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:10.480
<v Speaker 1>But I'm curious about duration. Is there a time period

0:35:10.560 --> 0:35:12.440
<v Speaker 1>where you could be fisting for too long? Like is

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:14.239
<v Speaker 1>there sort of an ideal window where you're like, all right,

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:16.240
<v Speaker 1>we should take a break, or we shouldn't go longer

0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:17.879
<v Speaker 1>than like X amount of time.

0:35:18.200 --> 0:35:20.400
<v Speaker 5>You know, I really like a long session as long

0:35:20.440 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 5>as you do frequent breaks. I think there's no problem

0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:26.680
<v Speaker 5>doing a long session. I mean, I've I mean doing

0:35:26.719 --> 0:35:29.719
<v Speaker 5>fulsome Berlin, I'm fisting like most days in a row,

0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:33.160
<v Speaker 5>you know, for four or five days, and so No,

0:35:33.360 --> 0:35:36.200
<v Speaker 5>I don't know if I think that there's an objective limit.

0:35:36.640 --> 0:35:40.279
<v Speaker 5>That said, when you add substances to the mix, then

0:35:40.600 --> 0:35:43.279
<v Speaker 5>it's harder to read that limit. I had my own

0:35:43.480 --> 0:35:46.440
<v Speaker 5>history with drugs that thankfully is really healthy now, at

0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:47.200
<v Speaker 5>one point it was not.

0:35:47.680 --> 0:35:49.799
<v Speaker 4>And the only times that I have ever.

0:35:49.800 --> 0:35:52.880
<v Speaker 5>Felt like I pushed it too far that I know

0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:55.560
<v Speaker 5>that I skirted injury because of endurance, because of how

0:35:55.600 --> 0:35:59.320
<v Speaker 5>long I was fisting was on substances that eliminated my

0:35:59.400 --> 0:36:02.480
<v Speaker 5>ability to read my own body. Like one time I

0:36:02.920 --> 0:36:06.640
<v Speaker 5>was in Fire Island Pines and I did a marathon,

0:36:06.920 --> 0:36:10.280
<v Speaker 5>druggy fisting session with the guy who had huge hands,

0:36:10.520 --> 0:36:14.160
<v Speaker 5>and I overdid it and I bruised my rectum and

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:16.600
<v Speaker 5>I had painful poops and I had to go back

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:19.640
<v Speaker 5>to the hospital in New York and the doctor was like,

0:36:20.400 --> 0:36:23.440
<v Speaker 5>you're fine, You're just bruised and really sore. Like it

0:36:23.560 --> 0:36:25.520
<v Speaker 5>was a really really good gay doctor, and I told

0:36:25.600 --> 0:36:27.320
<v Speaker 5>him everything. I told him exactly what I did, and

0:36:27.440 --> 0:36:30.640
<v Speaker 5>he was like, this was a warning, Like you're not injured,

0:36:30.920 --> 0:36:33.600
<v Speaker 5>but that's because you stopped when you stopped, and if

0:36:33.600 --> 0:36:35.880
<v Speaker 5>you had kept going, you probably would.

0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:36.160
<v Speaker 4>Have been injured.

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:39.680
<v Speaker 5>And so that comes from keems, not from fisting. Like

0:36:39.880 --> 0:36:42.080
<v Speaker 5>if I had been sober, I would have recognized that

0:36:42.120 --> 0:36:44.520
<v Speaker 5>I was starting to get sore, because you can feel

0:36:44.560 --> 0:36:47.839
<v Speaker 5>in an ass when someone's starting to heat up, when

0:36:47.920 --> 0:36:51.120
<v Speaker 5>someone's starting to wear out, Like when I'm fisting a bottom,

0:36:51.400 --> 0:36:54.319
<v Speaker 5>even before he's aware that he's getting a little sore

0:36:54.400 --> 0:36:57.399
<v Speaker 5>and tired, I can actually feel it. The tissue gets

0:36:57.480 --> 0:37:00.160
<v Speaker 5>warm and inflamed, and if you're fisting some much, you

0:37:00.239 --> 0:37:04.080
<v Speaker 5>can feel that inflammation happened. And then normally as a top,

0:37:04.200 --> 0:37:07.359
<v Speaker 5>I'll say, all right, I think it's time to take

0:37:07.400 --> 0:37:07.759
<v Speaker 5>a pause.

0:37:08.000 --> 0:37:10.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, can we talk a little bit about aftercare.

0:37:10.760 --> 0:37:13.480
<v Speaker 5>I take a depository and that kind of keeps it

0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:18.240
<v Speaker 5>like not rollen and painful. Like fisting does cause damage,

0:37:18.480 --> 0:37:21.880
<v Speaker 5>It does cause inflammation, It does cause pain. Post fisting,

0:37:22.160 --> 0:37:25.239
<v Speaker 5>kind of look for care, look for any damage, and

0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:29.200
<v Speaker 5>not go too hard anymore. I mean, like, I know

0:37:29.280 --> 0:37:31.439
<v Speaker 5>guys who will do a lot of heavy toy play

0:37:31.520 --> 0:37:34.279
<v Speaker 5>after after a fisting session. I wouldn't do a heavy

0:37:34.520 --> 0:37:35.680
<v Speaker 5>play after a fisting session.

0:37:36.000 --> 0:37:38.280
<v Speaker 3>No, that sounds that sounds crazy.

0:37:38.320 --> 0:37:40.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah it's not. Yeah, it's not the best.

0:37:41.040 --> 0:37:44.560
<v Speaker 3>So this is cruising confessions. I would love to hear

0:37:44.680 --> 0:37:47.520
<v Speaker 3>some of your wild cruising confessions, whether it be from fisting,

0:37:48.040 --> 0:37:49.680
<v Speaker 3>sex work or your life in Berlin.

0:37:50.360 --> 0:37:52.839
<v Speaker 5>My most beautiful fisting experience as the top was when

0:37:52.920 --> 0:37:56.200
<v Speaker 5>I was in sex work in New York. I had

0:37:56.239 --> 0:37:59.960
<v Speaker 5>this regular client. He was significantly older, and he lived

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:04.000
<v Speaker 5>in this beautiful apartment and everything in his apartment was

0:38:04.080 --> 0:38:07.080
<v Speaker 5>cream colored. It was all milky and cream and silk.

0:38:07.480 --> 0:38:09.759
<v Speaker 5>He was a really advanced fist bottom. I mean, we

0:38:09.840 --> 0:38:12.480
<v Speaker 5>talked about prolapses earlier, but he could push out his

0:38:12.600 --> 0:38:17.719
<v Speaker 5>prolapse pretty significantly, and when it happened, I told him

0:38:17.760 --> 0:38:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry, but this is such a design triumph because

0:38:20.400 --> 0:38:23.440
<v Speaker 5>this is the only color in this room, is this

0:38:23.800 --> 0:38:29.600
<v Speaker 5>one little spot of red. And I'm like, you've almost orchestrated.

0:38:28.960 --> 0:38:31.480
<v Speaker 3>This as like he absolutely did.

0:38:31.880 --> 0:38:35.719
<v Speaker 5>That is literally the pop of color literally popped and

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:37.880
<v Speaker 5>I was like, oh my god, that's amazing.

0:38:38.239 --> 0:38:38.680
<v Speaker 4>But he was.

0:38:39.320 --> 0:38:40.520
<v Speaker 5>He was a client that I had a lot of

0:38:40.560 --> 0:38:43.200
<v Speaker 5>really beautiful conversations with, and he was the old guard.

0:38:43.280 --> 0:38:45.719
<v Speaker 5>He lost everybody he lived through the eighties. He was

0:38:45.760 --> 0:38:48.520
<v Speaker 5>an AIDS activist. He was so small that I could

0:38:48.760 --> 0:38:52.120
<v Speaker 5>literally cradle him in my arms and like rock him

0:38:52.440 --> 0:38:55.080
<v Speaker 5>with my forearm and he just kind of held onto

0:38:55.120 --> 0:38:59.000
<v Speaker 5>my neck, and I felt like I was caring for

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:03.040
<v Speaker 5>one of our elders in a way that felt meaningful

0:39:03.120 --> 0:39:05.920
<v Speaker 5>and beautiful. And he was lonely and he wanted just

0:39:06.080 --> 0:39:08.400
<v Speaker 5>some company. He wanted just some fisting every now and then.

0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:11.879
<v Speaker 5>But it evolved into a really intimate and loving relationship.

0:39:12.800 --> 0:39:16.560
<v Speaker 5>It was beautiful, really really lovely person. But that's not

0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:19.719
<v Speaker 5>the hottest thing I've ever done. The problem is, like

0:39:19.760 --> 0:39:22.120
<v Speaker 5>cruising confessions, fisting is it something that you kind of

0:39:22.280 --> 0:39:24.680
<v Speaker 5>cruise to do. Fisting is like a date that you

0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:27.800
<v Speaker 5>schedule and you prepare your home space for it. I

0:39:27.920 --> 0:39:29.759
<v Speaker 5>tend to not do it in public. Fisting for me

0:39:29.920 --> 0:39:32.000
<v Speaker 5>is now like a one on one experience, and so

0:39:32.080 --> 0:39:34.560
<v Speaker 5>it's not that wild. I don't have any like wild

0:39:34.600 --> 0:39:38.040
<v Speaker 5>fisting stories because fisting is like my intimate sex. Whereas

0:39:38.480 --> 0:39:39.960
<v Speaker 5>I can go to black party and have sex with

0:39:40.040 --> 0:39:42.480
<v Speaker 5>like fifty people and that's that's fun. That's great, but

0:39:42.560 --> 0:39:46.000
<v Speaker 5>that's not You shouldn't fist at black party. What was

0:39:46.040 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 5>the black party that they did. It was the last

0:39:47.640 --> 0:39:49.640
<v Speaker 5>one they did in Manhattan and everybody hated it. It

0:39:49.760 --> 0:39:52.040
<v Speaker 5>was called Dark Matter. Do you remember that one? There

0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:55.720
<v Speaker 5>was this really hot muscle fisting couple who every fister

0:39:55.840 --> 0:39:59.160
<v Speaker 5>in New York was after and was really into, and

0:39:59.320 --> 0:40:01.839
<v Speaker 5>they were fist thing on the dance floor and they

0:40:01.880 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 5>were really putting on a show and they were fisting

0:40:04.719 --> 0:40:06.520
<v Speaker 5>like right in front of everyone on the dance floor,

0:40:07.040 --> 0:40:09.640
<v Speaker 5>and then they ran off the dance floor really quickly

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:12.919
<v Speaker 5>because the guy had like we saw like a line

0:40:12.960 --> 0:40:15.680
<v Speaker 5>of shit like going down the dance floor, and so

0:40:16.760 --> 0:40:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I mean, he wasn't fully ready, and like it happens,

0:40:20.400 --> 0:40:22.399
<v Speaker 5>It's gonna happen to everybody. But that's why you don't

0:40:22.480 --> 0:40:24.440
<v Speaker 5>do it on a dance floor, correct, in front of

0:40:24.800 --> 0:40:26.040
<v Speaker 5>New York ravers.

0:40:25.719 --> 0:40:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Like, yeah, it's just the way the girls are bumping

0:40:29.280 --> 0:40:30.960
<v Speaker 1>into each other on the dance floor. People are never

0:40:31.360 --> 0:40:34.600
<v Speaker 1>aware of their space sometimes, so I'm like, if your

0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:37.960
<v Speaker 1>hands are inside somebody and you've got like millimeters of leeway,

0:40:38.800 --> 0:40:40.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to get you know what I mean.

0:40:40.640 --> 0:40:43.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm a clumsy girl. I don't want another clumsy girl

0:40:43.600 --> 0:40:47.320
<v Speaker 1>that could not be me. Yeah, yeah, that's wild. Well, Alex,

0:40:47.400 --> 0:40:49.640
<v Speaker 1>we have almost reached the end of our interview, but

0:40:49.680 --> 0:40:51.440
<v Speaker 1>there's so much more we want to know, so we

0:40:51.640 --> 0:40:54.280
<v Speaker 1>are going to ask you some rapid fire questions.

0:40:54.320 --> 0:40:55.319
<v Speaker 3>If you're down, is that all right?

0:40:55.440 --> 0:40:56.839
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god? Yeah sure, Okay.

0:40:56.960 --> 0:40:59.040
<v Speaker 1>I know fisting takes a lot of preparation. You got

0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:00.480
<v Speaker 1>to get the blender out, you got to mix your

0:41:00.520 --> 0:41:02.800
<v Speaker 1>proprietary thing. But we're gonna make a quick and dirty.

0:41:02.600 --> 0:41:05.840
<v Speaker 3>Now, if that's all right? All right, describe your snippy's

0:41:05.840 --> 0:41:06.560
<v Speaker 3>profile pick.

0:41:07.120 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 5>Honestly, I take really stupid pick, so it's probably and

0:41:09.840 --> 0:41:12.520
<v Speaker 5>I cannot take a shirtless pick without sticking my tongue out,

0:41:12.600 --> 0:41:15.480
<v Speaker 5>so I probably look like like Miley Cyrus when she

0:41:15.680 --> 0:41:16.959
<v Speaker 5>was like always sticking out her tongue.

0:41:17.000 --> 0:41:19.840
<v Speaker 3>All right, describe the last person you fucked in three.

0:41:19.719 --> 0:41:30.960
<v Speaker 4>Words, Harry, toxic and precious? Was it me? Was that?

0:41:31.800 --> 0:41:31.840
<v Speaker 6>Me?

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Did? I? Was?

0:41:33.000 --> 0:41:33.520
<v Speaker 3>I in Berlin?

0:41:33.840 --> 0:41:34.160
<v Speaker 4>Wow?

0:41:34.760 --> 0:41:35.000
<v Speaker 6>Wow?

0:41:36.000 --> 0:41:36.319
<v Speaker 4>All right?

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:39.000
<v Speaker 1>So if you're meeting somebody for a fisting session, do

0:41:39.040 --> 0:41:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you prefer their place, your place, or a third place?

0:41:42.480 --> 0:41:44.959
<v Speaker 4>Only their place? Almost exclusively their place?

0:41:45.120 --> 0:41:45.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:41:45.600 --> 0:41:49.080
<v Speaker 1>What is your most controversial take related to sex and

0:41:49.200 --> 0:41:49.719
<v Speaker 1>queer life?

0:41:49.920 --> 0:41:51.680
<v Speaker 5>If I could tell one thing to people who are

0:41:51.960 --> 0:41:55.719
<v Speaker 5>just getting started sexually, the queer community places an outsized

0:41:56.200 --> 0:41:59.920
<v Speaker 5>value on sex, and I would just say it is important. Sexism,

0:42:00.360 --> 0:42:03.319
<v Speaker 5>it's great. I've spent my entire life being very sex

0:42:03.440 --> 0:42:05.640
<v Speaker 5>positive and very slutty, and I would want everyone to

0:42:05.719 --> 0:42:07.959
<v Speaker 5>do the same. But after you have a lot of sex,

0:42:08.040 --> 0:42:11.399
<v Speaker 5>you'll learn that you know, it's great. It's a fun

0:42:11.440 --> 0:42:14.200
<v Speaker 5>way to spend a Saturday night, But it's not as

0:42:14.280 --> 0:42:17.279
<v Speaker 5>important as I think a lot of us go through

0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:20.200
<v Speaker 5>our lives believing it is. I would still want everyone

0:42:20.280 --> 0:42:23.880
<v Speaker 5>to find sexual confidence, but you don't have to constantly

0:42:23.960 --> 0:42:25.799
<v Speaker 5>climb or build or do more and more and more.

0:42:25.840 --> 0:42:28.680
<v Speaker 5>It's okay to just kind of coast. I would never

0:42:28.719 --> 0:42:30.920
<v Speaker 5>want anybody to feel, especially with fisting. I would never

0:42:31.000 --> 0:42:32.880
<v Speaker 5>want anyone to feel like they have to reach a

0:42:33.000 --> 0:42:36.319
<v Speaker 5>certain level in order to think that beyond that level

0:42:36.400 --> 0:42:39.600
<v Speaker 5>it's great. There is no magical level at which fisting

0:42:39.719 --> 0:42:42.240
<v Speaker 5>or any kind of sex is just great. It's always

0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:42.759
<v Speaker 5>just sex.

0:42:43.160 --> 0:42:45.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I can relate to that.

0:42:49.000 --> 0:42:52.319
<v Speaker 1>That sounds like a great way to end our episode. Yeah, Alex,

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:55.120
<v Speaker 1>this has been a really incredible conversation. But before we

0:42:55.200 --> 0:42:58.040
<v Speaker 1>let you go, where can folks find your work? And

0:42:58.160 --> 0:42:59.719
<v Speaker 1>what's next on the horizon for you?

0:43:00.719 --> 0:43:02.959
<v Speaker 5>There is a second book coming, but the first book

0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:06.200
<v Speaker 5>is available whoever books are sold, and you can follow

0:43:06.280 --> 0:43:08.680

<v Speaker 1>All right, well, we've heard Alex's wild cruising confessions, but

0:43:21.239 --> 0:43:23.120
<v Speaker 1>in our final act we're going to hear an actual

0:43:23.160 --> 0:43:25.799
<v Speaker 1>cruising confession from one of you. Will it's a past

0:43:25.880 --> 0:43:28.120
<v Speaker 1>one of Alex's stories. I highly doubt it, but let's

0:43:28.120 --> 0:43:29.200
<v Speaker 1>stick around and see. Ye.

0:43:35.480 --> 0:43:39.399
<v Speaker 6>Hey, Sniffy's my cruising confession recently happened at a park

0:43:39.440 --> 0:43:41.960
<v Speaker 6>in Brooklyn. So I was walking my dog up on

0:43:42.040 --> 0:43:44.719
<v Speaker 6>the hill. I see these two guys pretty close to

0:43:44.800 --> 0:43:48.360
<v Speaker 6>one another. They look sexy from afar, so we go

0:43:48.600 --> 0:43:51.160
<v Speaker 6>check it out. As we're walking up the hill, it

0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:54.919
<v Speaker 6>starts drizzling and there's a tree. So my dog goes

0:43:55.080 --> 0:43:57.799
<v Speaker 6>and takes some shelter, and I get closer to these

0:43:57.840 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 6>guys and even sexy, you're up close and they are

0:44:00.400 --> 0:44:03.680
<v Speaker 6>up to no good. And so I decided to take

0:44:03.840 --> 0:44:06.840
<v Speaker 6>shelter with these guys, and you know, we start making

0:44:06.920 --> 0:44:12.120
<v Speaker 6>out and doing hand stuff and doing mouth stuff and yeah,

0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:15.160
<v Speaker 6>as we're blowing one another and you know, getting more

0:44:15.719 --> 0:44:21.360
<v Speaker 6>into it, it starts raining more, more downpour. We're absolutely drenched.

0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:25.600
<v Speaker 6>And this continues on until the first guy comes and

0:44:25.719 --> 0:44:28.440
<v Speaker 6>then I come, and then the guy at our knees

0:44:28.640 --> 0:44:32.239
<v Speaker 6>just goes, man, you too are like a waterfall. And

0:44:32.640 --> 0:44:37.720
<v Speaker 6>after that, I wipe the come away and I grabbed

0:44:37.760 --> 0:44:41.360
<v Speaker 6>my dog and we walked down the hill and the

0:44:41.520 --> 0:44:46.440
<v Speaker 6>sun comes out and I am feeling excellent. Thank you

0:44:46.760 --> 0:44:48.319
<v Speaker 6>for the load sniffies.

0:44:51.840 --> 0:44:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I was like, where was the dog? We lost track

0:44:54.600 --> 0:44:57.759
<v Speaker 1>of the dog. The dog, What was the dog doing

0:44:57.800 --> 0:44:58.200
<v Speaker 1>in the rain?

0:44:58.280 --> 0:45:02.160
<v Speaker 3>It's just like hanging out. Just walk. Yeah, I am

0:45:02.239 --> 0:45:03.879
<v Speaker 3>not a fan of hooking up in the rain.

0:45:04.200 --> 0:45:04.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm from Florida.

0:45:04.880 --> 0:45:07.120
<v Speaker 3>We don't fuck around with around the rain. I don't know.

0:45:07.280 --> 0:45:09.640
<v Speaker 3>I guess I gotta take more walks and parks. I'm

0:45:09.680 --> 0:45:12.799
<v Speaker 3>not I'll be the dog.

0:45:12.880 --> 0:45:14.840

0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:15.160
<v Speaker 1>it as.

<v Speaker 1>I love listening to these. It's my favorite part of

0:45:41.080 --> 0:45:42.400
<v Speaker 1>the show. So now that we're at the end of

0:45:42.440 --> 0:45:44.600
<v Speaker 1>the episode, I have to ask. The beginning, you sort

0:45:44.640 --> 0:45:48.080
<v Speaker 1>of mentioned that you were kind of sure that like,

0:45:48.360 --> 0:45:50.960
<v Speaker 1>fisting isn't for you. Has that changed based on our

0:45:51.000 --> 0:45:51.880
<v Speaker 1>conversation today?

0:45:52.239 --> 0:45:52.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So there was a.

0:45:52.920 --> 0:45:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Moment where Alex was like, I'm lactose intolerant, I can

0:45:55.200 --> 0:45:58.040
<v Speaker 1>still fist and I was like, wow, representation, That's what

0:45:58.080 --> 0:46:00.400
<v Speaker 1>I needed to see. Right when we got to the

0:46:00.440 --> 0:46:02.840
<v Speaker 1>prolapse as part and some of the dangers, and I

0:46:02.960 --> 0:46:06.080
<v Speaker 1>understand all sex is a calculated risk, right, We all

0:46:06.120 --> 0:46:08.600
<v Speaker 1>take calculated risks in in search.

0:46:08.400 --> 0:46:10.120
<v Speaker 3>Of pleasure living in New York.

0:46:10.200 --> 0:46:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, yeah, I take a calculated risk going to get groceries,

0:46:13.680 --> 0:46:16.759
<v Speaker 1>all right, So like totally understand that. But when we

0:46:16.840 --> 0:46:18.680
<v Speaker 1>did get to the injuries and prolapse part, I was like,

0:46:18.760 --> 0:46:21.960
<v Speaker 1>I think my ratio of not being interested when from

0:46:22.080 --> 0:46:25.000
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine to one hundred, Okay, me and my vowels,

0:46:25.120 --> 0:46:28.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, we've got an interesting relationship. I understand they're

0:46:28.160 --> 0:46:30.279
<v Speaker 1>they're a very uneasy girl. Yeah, And so I just

0:46:30.480 --> 0:46:33.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if fisting bottoming is for me, if

0:46:33.400 --> 0:46:34.320
<v Speaker 1>that will ever be for me.

0:46:34.440 --> 0:46:35.439
<v Speaker 4>No, I was wondering more.

0:46:36.000 --> 0:46:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I knew you would never be a fisting bottom, but

0:46:38.120 --> 0:46:39.120
<v Speaker 3>I was, well, what.

0:46:39.239 --> 0:46:40.839
<v Speaker 1>Gave it away so much?

0:46:43.560 --> 0:46:46.040
<v Speaker 3>But I'm wondering if you were more interested in exploring

0:46:46.120 --> 0:46:47.040
<v Speaker 3>fisting as a top.

0:46:47.239 --> 0:46:50.400
<v Speaker 1>I yeah, maybe it's not something I'm seeking out, But

0:46:50.520 --> 0:46:52.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you're if you're served a delicious plate,

0:46:53.800 --> 0:46:55.759
<v Speaker 1>why would you not How are you going to say no,

0:46:56.200 --> 0:46:57.920
<v Speaker 1>you got to take a bite. Yeah, take one bite

0:46:58.400 --> 0:47:01.680
<v Speaker 1>and then dip it in the case. That's not a metaphor.

0:47:01.680 --> 0:47:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why that came up in my head.

0:47:03.040 --> 0:47:05.359
<v Speaker 1>It's not that's not any sort of new slang.

0:47:05.719 --> 0:47:05.839
<v Speaker 6>Oh.

0:47:06.200 --> 0:47:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Very grateful to Alex. We're making the call the Away

0:47:08.040 --> 0:47:10.000
<v Speaker 1>from Berlin as well to take us through our very

0:47:10.120 --> 0:47:12.960
<v Speaker 1>first fisting episode. I'm kind of surprised it took us

0:47:13.040 --> 0:47:15.160
<v Speaker 1>until season three. I've been dying to dive in. I

0:47:15.239 --> 0:47:17.080
<v Speaker 1>couldn't think of anyone to do it better with than

0:47:17.320 --> 0:47:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Alex Chevez. And again a reminder. His memoir is titled

0:47:21.560 --> 0:47:23.719
