    When i lived in Montreal it was the first time id seen adult cinemas around in years (there was one really close to my studio at the time), an would often see guys when walking past go in there hiding there faces in shame, when it really shouldn’t be like that. i asked a few people i know over the last year about how they would feel about masterbating with other guys or having group sex when other guys are involved, an some had very angry hateful homophobic reactions to it which took me back a bit. so i made a animation celebrating that when it comes to any sexual fun your into or curious about, if it feels good between everyone who’s involved, do it and have a good time.
