bs2<p>> ... unfathomable secret that could not be solved by paying attention to your partner(s) during sex? WHO KNOWS. IT IS SO MYSTERIOUS.<br>> Obviously, there is a lot to unpack here, and like me, you may be sick to death of hearing about the whole goddamn thing, because who isn’t fucking tired of the patriarchy?
