Outting myself…and whoever else wants outing!

WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS THE WORDS CUNNILINGUS AND FELLATIO. IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY THE WORDS CUNNILINGUS OR FELLATIO YOU SHOULD NOT READ THIS POST. ALSO IF YOU GET A CASE OF THE VAPORS BY THE SHOCKING IDEA OF MARRIED SEX, DO NOT READ THIS POST. GOT THAT? CUNNILINGUS, FELLATIO AND MARRIED SEX NOT YOUR CUPPA? THEN DO NOT READ THIS POST. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!

In the spirit of the times, because the moral arbiters of our time have decided that keeping your private life private is not mere personal discretion, but “immoral” behavior that demands outing, Roger L Simon has outted himself. He’s not really a Republican, but he’s voted for some of ‘em…and…he’s gay!.

…although I cannot say I am really a Republican. I only voted for Republicans twice in my lifetime (once each for Bush and Schwarzenegger). Still… despite the fact that I have been married three times (to women) and have three children (of my own seed, as far as I know), I cannot cover up any longer. This dual life has become intolerable. I am gay! There. I’ve said it. Doesn’t that make you feel better, David? (Can we get back to serious issues now?)

Since no self-respecting gay man would even ignore a pop-culture trend, Gerard Vanderleun, who coined the word Masturgate (maybe it should have been spelled M-A-S-T-U-R-G-A-Y-T-E) has now come out:

For decades I have been a lesbian trapped in a man’s body. I can’t help it. I have this deep need to pursue every beautiful woman I see. What can this be other than latent lesbianism? As my two wives will, if they were speaking to me, attest, I have in the past performed lesbian acts on them. I couldn’t help it because it was in my genes and also part of their special request.

Well, if they’re going to come out, I may as well too. I’ve voted for a Republican president twice, but I still have warm feelings for Hubert Humphrey and Daniel Patrick Moynihan, and Bobby Kennedy, too. I am not gay, but…I AM A MARRIED CENTER-RIGHT WOMAN WHO LIKES SEX. NO…MAKE THAT LOVES SEX!

There. I said it. Whew. I feel so free. This is liberating - so much so that I want more…I want to come out all the way!

I like various positions! With the lights on and off! In the daytime and the nighttime! In the ocean and in the windowseat! I like sex on Sunday mornings! Can I get an “AMEN” for Cunnilingus? AMEN for cunnilingus! Can I get a “You know how to whistle, don’t you” for Fellatio? “You know how to whistle, don’t you?” Can I get a “Ride’em Cowboy” for my husband? Yippeekayae! Can I get an “arghghghghg” for Readi Whip and maraschino cherries? Arghghghghghg! What, no brownies?

Ohhhhhh…what a relief to get that off my womanly chest! I’ll go even further! Like Oprah, I’ll tell you exactly who raises my sex-meter eyebrows and makes me wiggle them at my husband! Yes! It’s THE LIST:


The Terfel!


Mr. Darcy!


Derek Sanderson Jeter!


Men in Kilts! ALL men in kilts! (But you knew that!)

Alright, so there. I’m a hussy, but I’m fussy. Get used to it.

And if my revelations cause a “civil war” and make some of my readers abandon me to go read…oh, I don’t know…Kos? Well, then, that’s just the price I’ll have to pay.

And anyone else who wants to “out” themselves and participate in this great pogrom (ooops, I mean “pageant”) of self-revelation for the sake of moral truthiness and the American Way, let me know, and I’ll link to you. Let us all participate in this most noble of endeavors…because, you know…THERE ARE NO MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSING THIS ELECTION SEASON!

Related: Democrats Out Another Gay Guy (I made the Vagina Monologues comparison a long time before David Brooks did but Althouse commenter Doug made a great analogy):

Actually, I think Brook’s argument is that the audience found this kind of behavior acceptable enough to applaud it, so they obviously don’t have a problem with the idea of an older person having sex with a younger person. If it was worthy of acceptance in a drama, then what if it were actually based upon a real life occurance? What if a conservative southern audience attended a showing of the mini-series “Roots” and expressed glee when slaves were being whipped? I highly doubt the left would be saying it is just a drama. Yup.

  1. The Mad Tea Party Says:

    I’m Out!

    The Anchoress has thrown down the gauntlet and I’m accepting it…

    I’m a middle-age woman who enjoys having sex with an older, married man. Been doing it for years, although neither of us were middle-aged when we started (he’s always been older, …

  2. BobinMD Says:

    Hello A…so you like like sex with your husband, and you are “outed”. Just makes you normal!

    One of my early heros’ was Roger Staubach, Q.B. for Navy, and later the Dallas Cowboys. After “North Dallas Forty” novel was published, illuminating the sexual habits of pro athletes, and some other revelations, Roger said: “Yeah…I like all that stuff too, I just like it with only my wife”.

    Those who “sleep around”, and have multiple partners, might as well just be masturbating. Nothing can compare with enjoying intimacy with someone you love and adore, and are committed to. That’s the way God planned it. Give Him the praise. Those who think “sleeping around” is cool…. (and once upon a time I did,) have no idea what they are missing. I’m so happy I learned that lesson.

    Mmmm, Jeter…

    …were you saying something, Ms. A? :-)

  8. TomGrey-Liberty Dad Says:

    (Thanks Fausta … smiling, laughing)

    How abOUT — I married a VIRGIN! She and I love sex, even when she was pregnant. (4 kids!).

    And like Bobbin (and Roger) — it’s great to be FAITHFUL with a faithful partner!
    Ex-womanizer, too. Not because it’s cools, but because it was much better than masturbation (though that wasn’t so uncommon). Yes, it wasn’t as fulfilling as love.

  9. stephanie Says:

    You totally rock, anchoress. I must admit, have been known to enjoy all of the actions mentioned in your post with my fiance- who, I must confess, is several years younger than I am.

  10. Chickenhawk Express Says:

    Damn This Outing Thing Feels Pretty Good

    I feel like I just walked into the graduation speech scene in the Kevin Kline movie “In and Out”. You know the one where everyone stands up and says they are gay in support of Kevin Kline’s character.

  11. Bizzyblog » The Anchoress Is on Fire Tonight Says:

    Normal? Doesn’t that depend on the quantities involved?

  13. cathyf Says:

    Today is my 16th wedding anniversary, and this morning, after I caught my breath, it occurred to me that we are way better at this sex thing than when we started!

  14. cathyf Says:

    I posted this over on JOM this morning — I thought that it seemed apropos:

    The caricature on the left is that social conservatives are all frigid and frustrated, and want to spread the misery around by sending out the anti-sex stormtroopers to prevent everyone else from having sex. In fact, NORC data has shown consistently over years of surveying that the more conservative and more religious people are, the more frequently they have sex and the better the sex is that they have. (That would be the NORC survey that Jesse Helms tried for years to de-fund, by the way. I’m pretty sure that the “except for Jesse, ‘prudes’ have better sex more often” conclusion was especially surprising to Jesse!)

    Ok, so there you are a libertine who has sold your soul for pleasure, and it’s going to be vitally important to you to deny deny deny that the monogamous squares not only still have their souls but they are also having better sex lives than you.

  15. March Hare Says:

    Dear A~
    My picture of Jim Caviezel ~is~ of him as the Count of Monte Cristo. It’s after he’s escaped prison and is traveling in disguise back to Paris. Yeah, it does look kind of Jesus-y, but I didn’t want to copy Julie D.’s picture…

  16. JMC Says:

    Does it count as outing if I reveal myself as a 52-year-old woman who has never been married and is still a virgin?
    /
    As for the whole thing about Dems outing gay Republican staffers - if you ask me, the Republicans are the ones who are truly practicing “gay rights.” I firmly believe the homosexual act is wrong, but the homosexual himself certainly has a right to earn an honest living.
    /
    And I commend gay men and women everywhere who either try to make a “straight” marriage work, or live celibate. Neither course is easy, but the rewards are out of this world.

  24. joyceee Says:

    Anchoress, Have you been reading Song of Solomon ?? I read your post to my husband and he had to help me pronounce the words. FELLATIO sounds like Italian ice cream. Can’t wait to use it in Scrabble. We play almost every night. My husband lets me have more tiles so that my score can get close to his, and I think I can spell that other word, too. But, alas, it is not in our Scrabble dictionary. Fourteen points–but if I do it on a triple word score—it is a win-win.

  27. Dinocrat » Blog Archive » The first blogger and the Anchoress Says:

    [...] The first blogger was Samuel Pepys, whose writings are often reduced today to accounts of the Great Fire and the like, but whose interests were encyclopedic. His wrote about money and politics, art and music, matters great and trivial, the serious and ribald. The Anchoress has written about politics, religion, popular culture, parenting, and many other matters. It was her recent racy post that inspired us to this 1970 review of a new edition of Pepys’ Diary in the New York Review of Books by Matthew Hodgart — the title of the piece was O Calcutta! The Diary is the record of the most delightful euphoria of any man in literature. This euphoria was produced by steadily rising wealth and power, and showed itself in growing sexual energy and enjoyment of all that life had to offer. The sexual effects of power have often been noted in public figures: fear of the libel laws prevents me from mentioning recent names, but examples in America and Britain will readily come to mind. Pepys’s power came from his good luck in getting a job in the Navy Office, and from his hard work and skill as an administrator. He wrote in a later year “that, for myself, chance without merit brought me in; and that diligence only keeps me so, and will, living as I do among so many lazy people, that the diligent man becomes necessary, that they cannot do anything without him.” [...]

    Oh, well. The missus’ll be back in town tomorrow night. We’ll have a little outing of our own, with any luck.

    In support of The Anchoress and poster #14, this Christian conservative, happily-married, monogamous individual says SEX ROCKS!! I’ll do in on all days that end in “y” (sometimes twice on Sunday), in all positions, with the lights on or off, and in any geographical location. In my opinion, Christians should have more, better, and hotter sex than anyone else because of the love attached to it. We’re in it for the connectedness to our partner’s pleasure too–not just to satisfy our own desire.

My email box also contained some piece of craziness about how I, as a conservative, am (of course) a hater of gays (I’ll have to tell my brother) and puppies (I’ll have to tell the dog) and raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, but that we were all going to get shown by the outting of gay Republicans by “the list,” which - I think - must have “outted” a couple of people this week? Did that happen? I wouldn’t know. I haven’t found the “the list” story to be interesting since I outted myself a few weeks ago, along with Roger Simon, Vanderleun and a couple dozen others. [...]
