Boyslut: A Memoir and Manifesto

Product Information

The author reads, and I really appreciated his absolute refusal to abandon his embrace of being a slut. I'm also glad he has a platform to recount his experiences as a bisexual person, to give that group some visibility. The answer to 'we don't yet see treatment-resistant X' shouldn't be 'so I'm not going to change until that happens'.

This is one of the reasons I liked this book, it gave me view from different perspective that I really hadn’t given much thought. With women, I tend to wear a condom significantly more and actually just assume that they want me to wear a condom. World premieres include Douglas Stuart's Shuggie Bain, Maddie Mortimer's Maps of Our Spectacular Bodies and Maggie O'Farrell's The Marriage Portrait.Accessible, engaging, and genuinely hilarious, these essays are as titillating as they are educational.

I think books like this, or more important than ever and I’m glad to see that more books like this or being published. From talking about the weird things we’d do as kids or the sexual guilt we can feel growing up, or how we have to stop the shame around STIs, Zane manages to keep you invested as well as making you feel like you’re in a gaff having four am banter with a close mate. It’s why we must claim bisexuality even when we’re happily monogamous and have been married to the same person for years.This is an extended advice column, that mostly rings the right bells; but in the end it's an extended advice column. As a whole, a fascinating book and a fast read, but also one that left me feeling like there is better sex positive messaging out there. Like, for example, anything deep about his relationships or about his emotional life beyond feelings of anxiety.
