Why Are People Into That?! – Details, episodes & analysis

“Most forced stuff is good, really.” — Nea Ching

"Why Are People Into That?: A Cultural Investigation of Kink" THE BOOK IS OUT NOW wherever books are sold in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook read by me!

The episode you’re listening to now was recorded in July of 2021 at Junior High gallery in Los Angeles. It was one of the first in-person events I did after getting vaccinated. I’ve been sitting on this footage and other footage from the other live shows I’ve done over the past few years because I was honestly waiting for a special occasion. I don't think anything more special than the book release is likely to happen any time soon, so here it is! 

Friend of the pod and returning guest Nea Ching aka "The Gay Chingy" and I answer audience questions like "Why Are People Into Being Hunted?!" (the greatest audience question of all time?!) and discuss an alternate dimension where Chingy is a top.

Tickets are still available to Junior High gallery on June 11th for a cabaret celebration of the book release with wine and sweets and schmoozing… and burlesque and drag performance curated by my very talented friend Spike Prince of Cats.

The best way to get tickets to that show, and also find out about my book tour and educatrix workshops, and my new detective comic Deprog, is to subscribe to my newsletter at Tina Horn dot net, and follow me where I’m most active at tinahornsass on Instagram.

"Why Are People Into That?: A Cultural Investigation of Kink" THE BOOK IS OUT TODAY June 4th, 2024. Happy birthday baby!

The episode you’re listening to now was recorded in July of 2021 at Junior High gallery in Los Angeles. It was one of the first in-person events I did after getting vaccinated. I’ve been sitting on this footage and other footage from the other live shows I’ve done over the past few years because I was honestly waiting for a special occasion. I don't think anything more special than the book release is likely to happen any time soon, so here it is! 

Friend of the pod and returning guest Nea Ching aka "The Gay Chingy" is so fucking funny, at one point she literally says, "I’m a hole not an engineer!" This episode was actually really a treat for me to return to and edit. The audience was super cute as my audiences tend to be. I hope you laugh and get turned on listening as much as I did making it. We talk about how fucking machines are objects that objectify you, about breeding with ovipositor dildos, about artisinal poppers that make you feel the way you do when you have a really big crush on someone, and how during the pandemic we missed strangers spitting in our mouths. 

Real quick I just want to tell you that if listening to this makes you wish you could attend YAPIT live, you’re gonna wanna come back to the Junior High gallery on June 11th for a cabaret celebration of the book release with wine and sweets and schmoozing… and burlesque and drag performance curated by my very talented friend Spike Prince of Cats.

“Is it ok for 'Juno Mac' to be an anxious hooker and an advocate for sex worker rights? Am I allowed to be a messy, complicated person?” //

The co-author of the indispensable book Revolting Prostitutes join me over the phone from her quarantine in England to discuss: the unfair pressure of compartmentalizing our own sex lives and whoreientations, why doing sex work digitally feels like Buffy losing her super-strength and not being able to open a jar of pickles, dinner party Decrim talking points, and “calling in” the analogy "sex is to rape as sex work is to trafficking." //

Juno Mac is a professional leg spreader and opinion haver; a sex worker, activist, author, and photographer based in London, UK. She is an organizer with Sex Workers’ Advocacy and Resistance Movement, a collective of sex workers based in different cities around the UK. She is one of the co-authors of the book Revolution Prostitutes: The Fight For Sex Workers’ Rights released in 2018, and is currently working on a part documentary/part memoir photographic project about the intimate spaces in sex working lives. Her 2016 TED Talk is called: The laws that sex workers really want.

“Sex that takes up a lot of time doesn’t contribute to capitalist production. Anyone who comes into the Pleasure Chest is already saying; I’m taking back time for myself." In this special Pride episode, Ryan DiMartino talks with Tina about queering sex. From fabulous toys like golden strap-on dildos, to queer porn and literature, to gender affirming gear like gaffs and packers, the Pleasure Chest is the perfect place to find everything you need to queer your sex life all year long! Ryan DiMartino coordinates education at the Pleasure Chest NY. Inspired by sharing the stage with community leader Miss Major at age 17, their work is in pursuit of justice at the intersections of sexuality and gender with a focus on sex workers rights, body autonomy, and education. When they're not working with humans, they can usually be found beneath a pile of dogs.

Should you pie a Nazi in the face? What's the best JELL-O for wrestling? What are the class implications of bringing food into your sex life? These are the kinds of questions Tina and Lorelei have been asking each other over the years in dungeons, porn castles, and cocktail bars. They figured the least they could do for their fans was to record it for once!

Her fiction, nonfiction, and poetry have appeared in Salon, The Rumpus, WIRED, Denver Quarterly, the Los Angeles Review of Books, Buzzfeed, $pread Magazine, and elsewhere.
