But shouldn't it be?
The whole Weiner scandal was a big topic of conversation in the Violet + Rye household in recent weeks. Sure, we wavered back and forth on the subject. Was it creepy? Was he Tweeting under age girls knowingly? Were the Democrats being fucking ridiculous?
Mostly we couldn't believe that people were so up in arms about something that so many of us do. Sure, he lied about it. Blah blah. But the core of the issue really seemed to be that Americans don't want their politicians to enjoy some of the same perversions that they do.
After all, on a scale of vanilla to freaky, Tweeting cock pics is pretty close to the vanilla end of the spectrum. I mean, if you're a reader of this blog, you'll agree on that statement. And we even consider ourselves fairly vanilla at times.
Easy for us to defend Weiner, right? After all, we're Tweeting photos of our dick and pussy to you on a near daily basis (artistically, of course). But if we're calling it like it is, we're guilty of those same charges.
Does this mean it's bad? NO. Weiner is an adult. He likes to fuck. Just like you like to fuck. Just like I LOVE to fuck. Who are we to judge if he has an agreement with his wife? Aren't we accepting of open marriages here? Of swinging? And if they don't have that arrangement, they've got some talking to do. But how many of you are looking at this without your husband or wife knowing? We all have desires. And living out some fantasies online is one of the more innocent approaches one can take when living out those desires.
What makes a lawmaker any different? Sure, he's an elected politician. That's his job. We both have jobs. And when we aren't doing them, we like to do any number of things. Eat. Drink. Fuck. Travel. Watch movies. Listen to music. Browse porn. Buy toys. Fuck more. Eat again. Jobs pay our bills. They don't define EVERYTHING about us. It's the same for a politician. Elected or not, we don't own them.
Anyway, the point of this isn't to say that Weiner is in the right. Or that Americans are in the wrong for shaming him. But just to say that, shit, isn't it time we all admit we have kinks? That, like most adults we know, we LOVE fucking.
Open up already! Stop shaming. Stop hiding. Stop being quiet about having desires and kinks. Pretty much EVERY SINGLE ADULT you pass on the street today (in NYC, that's a LOT), are going home to jerk off, fuck, get fucked, think about fucking, or maybe writing about how we should talk more about fucking (see what I did there?).
And yes, you're calling bullshit right now. Because after all, we're anon bloggers, sharing pics, stories, vids and our kinks. Without faces. Fine. Be a dick about it, why don't you?
But you can trust that in our social lives, we're trying to live with this new outlook. If friends ask us about our sex lives, I tell them I like getting pegged. Because fuck, it feels good. And maybe one of them will try it because one of their friends doing it takes the stigma away.
Having this blog has helped us come to terms with just how bunched up we all are. And how much nicer it is when you can just admit to your friends over a drink that you've recently discovered a real love for anal. And that Tenga eggs feel fucking awesome (they really do).
So, maybe that's where we can all head in the future. And this will be the last time we have to shame someone publicly for having a sex life as we keep our porn blogs open in a different tab. At least we hope.
Ok, off my soap box. Speaking of pegging...
Weiner went wrong with indiscretion. That was the real problem. I don't blame you two for being anonymous. What you do here has nothing to do with your day job, and it shouldn't. Being too public with your sexual selves could create a distraction at work. And maybe it should. I don't know what you do, so it's hard to say. It definitely created problems for Weiner at the office. The dude is a public figure, whose job is to push a political agenda. His dick pic made him wholly ineffective. So it's not a problem that he did it, but it is a problem that he got caught.
ReplyDeleteFor sure, there are gray areas, but sometime there are not. If you're a school teacher, you can't walk around with a dildo strapped to your forehead at work. If you're a cross dressing furvert you can't expect to work as a receptionist at a white shoe law firm unless you keep that part under wraps. I have no problem with anything I just listed (head-dildo, cross dressing, furvert, school teacher, receptionist) but I think in some cases it's reasonable to ask people to compartmentalize those parts of their lives. That doesn't mean every request to compartmentalize is reasonable, but asking a congressman to keep his dick offline (or at least unidentifiable online) seems pretty reasonable. We elected him to get things done in Washington, not to make the world safer for our perversions.
And even if we did do that, or agree that making the world safer for a more open sexuality is a good thing, you don't do that by secretly tweeting your cock to women you don't know (and who didn't want to see it) and then lying about it when you get caught. It's indiscreet. And that hurts the cause of perverts everywhere.
Now can we see more anonymous pix of you two fucking each other??? ;)
Yeah, what that person said above. Spot on.
ReplyDeleteI don't really have anything to add to the commentary here except thanks for having an open discussion about it. The area I live in is far too conservative to even admit that under our clothes we are naked, let alone that we enjoy s.e.x. (for shame!). so, ya... thanks!
ReplyDeleteIs that you (Rye) being pegged? Effing AWESOME if so...
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the long response about anon sex from an anon! Well said, and we really love a pushback!
ReplyDeleteAs for Jesse, that's mostly why we wrote it. We may live in New York now, but we didn't always. And while so many say that this city is the land of debauchery, gay couples still can't marry. We've got a long way to go in America when it comes to sex. We should be WAY more comfortable watching it than violence, and way more eager to talk about it than complain about what's wrong with our lives. Time for a sea change, I say!
And no, sadly, that's not me being pegged. He's a bit hairier and her nipples are different. Sounds like you need to study our photos again, get to your homework!
Perhaps soon we'll have some more footage of our pegging adventures!
