Great video from Hank.

Thanks, John…

I want to be clear that I was not trying to represent every sort of sexuality that exists with these four perspectives…that’s crazy talk. This is not an “intro to sexuality” video. 

Instead, I wanted four people who I know and like a lot to talk about sexuality in an open and intelligent way. Just having people talking about their experiences being people is valuable when it comes to sex because the taboo is significant, and it can lead to self-hatred, terrible decisions, and general unappiness.

I had a lot of confusion when I was coming to terms with my sexuality. So this video is basically for 14 year old me, who lived in a culture where the differences between sexual attraction, love, and gender were not discussed. 

Because we don’t talk about it openly, there’s often a lot of pressure on people to hide their sexuality, or be afraid of who they are. I hope this video helps some of those people.

That being said, I would like for there to be a place on the internet where people talk intelligently about this stuff regularly and more deeply. I don’t know that I’m the right person to do it (I am busy and not an expert) but I have some ideas, so hopefully that kind of content is something the world would be interested in.

If so…I’ll strategize.

I don’t have much to say, but I like this video a lot. So yeah, Hank, I would say this video helps people.
