Sex In Europe (a preview)
So I’ve got this blog post in my drafts that’s called Sex in Europe. It’s a more in depth post about my trip to Amsterdam and Berlin, and some thoughts about how sexuality and visual culture (yes, that’s porn and stuff) combine and clash in different ways in Europe vs the United States. Uh, the [...]
