Castrating Our Nonbinary Boyfriends
In Post Cringe’s first guest episode, Elena and Skye enlist their “boy”friends (Will and Ted, respectively) to dissect some cringe instances of Guys Being Dudes. Reflecting on a recent article titled “The Case Against Aesthetic Castration,” they discuss the politics of sexual desire in art and debate whether the Getty Museum would use they/he pronouns. Elena describes something horrifying she saw at the LA Art Show, and Will talks about that guy who went viral on Twitter for coming out as a chaser in the middle of a warzone. They also offer genuine reflections on pronoun circles, the seedy world of pick-me guys, and their experiences listening to Red Scare as a form of self-harm.
