A Person’s Second
Sexual Revolution


It was more about breaking
barriers Built by growing up
in one of those semi-ideal – it
really depends on who you ask

but if you ask me I’d say I was
quite appreciative of the fact
that I grew up in a rural southern
area with all of its mostly close-

minded stereotypes. But there
was such amazing leeway, and
if you had always been a bit of a
goody-goody if you waited later

than most it’d wind up being
something ideal to most every
one, your new nastier or more
well-rounded behavior. In my

case it came as last as after
graduation from 12th grade
and involved such things as
having a girlfriend for the f

first time, not having a clue
about my actual sexuality,
it was the early 1980s in
smalltown Arkansas and

the curiosity, if even the
slightest aggressive, would
paire with the up-to-now
and good old boy naivete,

which made for a bit of
a bonus. So suddenly,
add alcohol or pot
and suddenly you

might possible do
anything you want
sexually with whom
ever you want, and

when there is con
sense, what amazing
fun! But then comes
the second sexual

revolution, it
could come when
you’re in anywhere
in your 40s to 60s,

most likely, i’d say.
and the first thing
you might notice is
what a hard edge it

has to it. and how
much more exhausting!
if it’s just happenstance,
then that can be diving.
but if it’s something you

find yourself putting a
lot of work into, how
exuasting! in that
latter case you’ll

find that it’s an
incredibly hard
climb, it’s tons
of tremendous work

and, here’s the real
clencher, there’s a lot
of preparation and
planning involved.

If you want to
make it really
happen, if you’re
one of those people

who generally expects,
inevitably, to have it
end in some action (my
god, if you’re not,

please keep your
distance from me,
just in case some
crazy notion night

arise), well I have so
little experience with this
second kind of intimacy
that I am as of yet

undecided regarding
whether any part of
that process is worth
a damn. But if it

isn’t, then what on
earth would that mean,
what’d be an approp
riate next step. I’m

so split
between
the two
so comp
lately
different
types of
getting it
on that,

much as I wanna say
it’s a treat either way,
I am just not entirely
Sure whether there

is any need for
part two. Any
ideas on how
to live if one

opts out? Or
does anyone
have any al
ternative ways

to get there
that might re-
create the fun
and naivete

again, can
make it
more fun?
Serious question.
