The Strange Intimacy of the Anonymous Load


Recommended Posts

I've read a lot about homosexuality trying to understand it because it's never made any sense to me. This discussion reminded me of a paragraph from the book "Homosexual Matrix" (Tripp, 1975). He writes:

Quote

Sometimes promiscuity includes surprising elements of affection. Even the fleeting contacts between males who meet in Turkish baths or otgher impersonal settings often contain elements of emotion that go beyond "pure sex". (p. 146)

This comment caught my attention when I read Homosexual Matrix because I had felt that affection when I had gone to bathhouses. In the same book the author brings up the issue of NSA sex and wonders about the motivation for anon sex. I also wondered for years until I found this piece about anonymous sex: http://safestsex.org/aboutmen-en.php.
