Key Discussion Points & Story Breakdown
1. Setting the Tone: Community, Consent & Kink
- [01:39] Dixie introduces the ethos of the show: “True Stories of Sexual Adventure that started in San Francisco. And if I had my way, they'd be going all. All over the world.”
- Bawdy presents a safe, supportive space where wild, weird, and wonderful sexual experiences are celebrated, not judged.
2. Meet Claire Webber: From Theater to Storytelling
- [04:00] Dixie describes Claire as someone with “a fucked up sense of storytelling,” someone who loves “that sense of adventure that says, oh my god, that's a terrible idea. Let's find out what happens next.”
3. Claire's Story: Gender Play, ADD, and College Antics
- [05:01] Claire opens with a twist: she describes a “guy” who’ll “ruin my life,” then reveals, “I was looking in a mirror and this guy was me.”
- Quote: “He looked like the kind of guy that was going to ask to not use a condom. ...He looked like the kind of guy that…thought blue balls was a thing, but, like, he was so hot he could get away with it. ...But here’s the thing. I was looking in a mirror. And this guy was me.”
- Claire shares about her severe ADD and her time at unconventional Evergreen State College: “I got a BA in BS. ...I just went to parties at Evergreen. That was my thing.”
- Quote: “It’s just like a bunch of art kids in a school with no grades thrown into the woods. Like, we party.” [05:52]
4. Inventing Leo: Becoming a Bad Boy
- Bored with standard college parties, Claire starts pushing boundaries, escalating from party themes to impersonations.
- She devises her male alter ego, “Leo,” by cutting her hair for facial hair, borrowing men’s clothes, and choosing a muscle T with skinny jeans.
- Quote: “I looked like a guy that catfished girls on MySpace. I looked like somebody that broke my heart in middle school. And I named him Leo.” [07:19]
5. The Quest for a Perfect ‘Dick’ (and the Dollar Store Solution)
- Claire experiments with stuffable phallus options: socks (not right), water-filled condom (disaster), a regular dildo (uncomfortable).
- Ultimately, her ADD toy collection provides the solution: a squishy “water wiggly” (“water snake toy”).
- Quote: “I shoved it down my pants and I went to a party.” [08:43]
6. Attending the Party as Leo
- The party scene is evocative and irreverent: “Like a post-apocalyptic Leave it to Beaver…only teenage delinquents survive.”
- Leo’s swagger quickly attracts attention—a girl invites “him” to dance; sexual tension escalates on the dance floor.
- Quote: “She moved my hands up her skirt to toy with the elast on her panties. Holy shit, Leo’s hot.” [09:17]
- Claire’s crush, Chelsea, is there with her beautiful, coke-dealing DJ boyfriend Luke (“He was a DJ that sold coke. Sorry, he was a DJ that sold coke”). [06:45]
- A silent, smoldering interaction between Claire (as Leo), Chelsea, and Luke signals mutual attraction, and a “threesome conversation” is wordlessly conducted.
7. The Threesome: Both Awkward and Electric
- The trio leaves, heading to Chelsea and Luke’s dorm room.
- Sexy tension and awkwardness abound; positions shift as three people try to make a twin bed work.
- Claire (as Leo) is deeply in the moment—both sexually excited and wishing for a “real” penis.
- Quote: “I wish I had a cock in this moment. But I make do with my palm against her and she’s moaning and I’m nibbling her cunt...” [11:28]
- The climactic, laugh-out-loud moment: as Chelsea undoes Claire’s fly, the “water wiggly” falls out “with a fat wet splat on the floor, just glitter bobbing and we’re all laughing.” [12:45]
- Quote: “That’s a nice cock you have there.” —Chelsea
“Yeah, I got it at the dollar store.” —Claire (as Leo) [10:55] - The reveal is met with laughter, acceptance, continued pleasure: “And Chelsea keeps pulling down my pants and says, Claire’s gonna hear about this. And I did.” [13:24]
- Quote: “That’s a nice cock you have there.” —Chelsea
8. Aftermath & Solidarity
- Playful post-story banter:
- “We have never asserted that a water snake toy is a sex toy.” —Claire [17:14]
- “I really want one.” —Marty Garcia (Producer) [17:21]
