I have never been afraid of sex. Of course that has hurt me quite badly over all the years I’ve been having it, but I remain fairly fearless. I am not afraid to talk about it, nor am I afraid to have it. Lots of different kinds of it, with lots of different people.
Sometimes I wonder if it’s because there’s something in there, some sort of pathology that has numbed me to the terrifying realities of (some) of the sex I’ve had: a childhood trauma or me rebelling against the last vestiges of my now renounced Catholicism.
