Episode 276: ‘Friendly Fire’ (Jet Noir)

Bawdy Storytelling

Does assisting the other penis with lube application just feel like the polite thing to do? Burlesque Performer and Kinesthesiologist Jet Noir grew up rejecting the label ‘Bisexual’, because although his mother and father raised him shame-free, the world isn’t quite so openminded. Moving out on his own at 18, he started dating with intention, trying on prospective partners with the intent of recreating the ‘wife and babies’ life that had surrounded him. But as he stood at his father’s grave and watched his mother wave goodbye to the casket, Jet came to a life-changing realization: That was their story, not his, and he never wanted to go back to ‘normal’ ever again. #ShameFree #NoLabels #BeWhoYouAre #DiscoverYourself #MentalHealth

What is Substack?

Substack is an email newsletter platform (made up of text, audio, video, etc) known for its hands off approach to censorship. While there are still some publishing guidelines (no porn, hate speech or harassment, for example), the platform’s lack of gatekeeping has attracted both ground-breaking journalists and some seriously controversial writers”. https://blog.hootsuite.com/what-is-substack/
