White bottom gay
Welcome to The Gay B C’s of Sex! Each month I’m defining a different sex-related term that’s used within the homosexual community. Im crafting these definitions with help from queer archives, pop society, interviews, and more. Retain in mind that terminology — especially when it comes to sex — varies widely across communities, and no single definition or article can encapsulate every individuals experience with these terms. Use this column as a jumping off point for your retain reflection and conversation in the comments.

Wearing oversized sweatshirts that go past your hands. Listening to Lana del Rey on vinyl while douching for a guy who doesn’t deserve you. Your phone always dying. Being confused for a woman when on the smartphone. Wanting someone to come and rescue you. According to peopleonTwitter, these alternately depressing and banal attributes constitute bottom culture.
