Summary

A mother in Central America is worried that her son is being a little too risky when he walks home from the beach in women's clothing. When she confronts him about this, he calls her a transphobic, homophobic boomer. Teens! Am I right? A woman is afraid that her boyfriend will cheat on her. And yet, she fantasizes that her boyfriend is cheating on her. How can she preserve her self-esteem while indulging her cuckqueen instincts? On the Magnum, it turns out the ancient Greeks were wrong about cunnilingus! Dan interviews Mark Haskell Smith author of "Rude Talk in Athens" which explores how comedians in ancient Athens brawled with each other. One of the worst insults was to accuse another of going down on a lady. Silly ancient Greeks. And, are the terms "tops" and "bottoms" only for the gays? And can straight polyamorous people march in the pride parade? 206-302-2064 voicemail@savagelovecast.com This episode of the Savage Lovecast is sponsored by : a website dedicated to getting scientific truths out about women's sexual pleasure.

0:00.0	You're listening to the micro version of the Savage Lovecast, www.com.
0:06.6	If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,
0:16.2	well, there's nothing you can't pass on the Savage Mubcast.
0:24.5	So some interesting posters went up on light poles in Ireland last weekend, some Pride Month counter programming.
0:30.8	And 10 seconds later, those posters were flying around Twitter.
0:34.5	Maybe you saw them.
0:35.8	On the poster, on this placard, there's a picture of what appears to be
0:38.8	an opposite sex couple on their wedding day. Now, she could be by, and so could he, but we're obviously
0:44.3	not supposed to read them as possibly by, because in big block letters right across the top of the
0:50.2	poster, it says, straight pride. Then in the fine print at the bottom, it's natural. It's worked for
0:57.1	thousands of years. And then again, in giant type, and you can make babies. All right. Gay sex, also
1:06.8	natural, as Alfred Kinsey said, the only unnatural sex act is that which one cannot perform.
1:13.2	Gay sex, also been around for thousands of years, millions actually, and gay people.
1:18.7	We can make babies too. We're just not going to make them by accident. And when you pause to consider
1:25.1	how much time, money and efforts to pay people spend trying to avoid making babies by accident, all those condoms, all those pills, all those IUDs, all those abortions, all that anal, the making of babies part looks more like a bug than a feature.
1:39.7	I'm hoping this is a massive trolling effort. Actually, obviously, it's a trolling effort, but I have
1:45.7	hopes that who's trolling who isn't obvious here. The bride and groom on the poster are superimposed
1:52.1	over light pink and blue stripes. It's literally the trans pride flag. So yeah, here's hoping a trans
1:59.7	group is behind these posters. And this week,
2:01.9	we're going to find out the groom is a trans man and the bride is a trans woman and they both
2:06.1	identify as straight. And they're having a baby. And he's the one who's pregnant. In other news,
2:11.8	the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops took a step toward denying President Joe Biden,
