“hold off, Is This a Date?” Podcast Episode 209: Bottoming with Chingy | Autostraddle
Why don’t we earn some noise the soles in your house! (It really is me personally, the base in your house.) Bottom customs grew to become very something⢠on the web recently! But what will it truly suggest to get a bottom? Why comes with the tradition made the decision bottoming is just being worried to inquire about for just what you need? And how does an individual begin deciding as long as they fancy bottoming?!
Along with these questions rattling around our very own thoughts, demanding solutions, Drew and I realized there is one person we can easily visit for a curved, enthusiastic dialogue about bottoming: The Gay Chingy AKA Chingy Nea, AKA The Bottom Supreme. Chingy is among the best people I know writing and tweeting now, and also as a bottom me, I am honored to call her my chief. Chingy allows us to tease away just what it methods to end up being a bottom, precisely why she dislikes “smol bean” bottom part tradition, your system as opening, along with your human body as
whole
. Its a truly breathtaking dialogue, if I carry out say-so me! Please understand that I am aware that I state “gorgeous” approximately three thousand instances this occurrence, and I am pursuing support for my problem. (The condition is speaking like 57 year old white gay guy.)
And! This week’s video game entails myself guessing in the event that challenging plots Drew describes fit in with a film or a dream she had circa 2006. It is not easy!

We escape through all of this snowy terrain, on the highway I meet an actress and relate solely to their. We result in a suburb. In my opinion we are going to start a unique existence together until she takes us to a large residence, and I recognize it is one of the gangster. It actually was all a trap, the gangster shows up and there’s a confrontation. I eliminate him, the fantasy stops with all the actress performing a musical quantity.

in 2008. Thus, which is a great little reality. Okay, next one, We have a significant task, but this hot woman turns up and starts distracting myself. I wish to be along with her, but I additionally really need to get might work accomplished, therefore I inform this lady to leave. She keeps after myself.

Passivity
.
Christina

(Affirmative)
.
Drew

Christina
: i might need certainly to concur, I additionally believe the way in which you discuss bottoming is, i am talking about, let’s merely state it, so much significantly less aggravating versus method so many people talk about becoming a bottom or recognize with bottom culture. Because, i actually do think that exactly what many are saying clearly or non explicitly is just, i’m lazy and never care doing any sort of activity, activity, et-cetera, i would really like situations completed to myself.

Chingy
: Yeah, dating back to I am able to bear in mind, i usually planned to end up being a bottom. No, but types of, as I was actually 13 or 14, I became already evaluating SADOMASOCHISM web pages and lesbian BDSM websites. Therefore, I found myselfn’t under any delusions in what I was pertaining to, I became having ladies I dated in senior high school choke me personally aside, we understood what I wanted. And, that amount of awareness has just given me a number of years to know what i’d like and learn how to get it.
Christina
