Samm Davidson makes an excellent point in her piece today about — what else? — “Heated Rivalry.” “Being turned on by watching two gay men does not mean anything about your sexuality,” she writes. “It doesn’t mean you secretly want something different. It doesn’t mean you don’t love your husband. It doesn’t mean you need to ‘figure something out.’It means it’s hot. It’s intimate. It’s charged. It’s forbidden in that delicious, fictional, low-stakes way that makes your nervous system light up in a world that's increasingly sad and depressing every single day. But women are absolutely not allowed to talk about that.” What gives? |
