Bonsoir et bienvenue \xe0 Fright School! We're going French again! Joe has jury duty! We discuss the importance of showing up and trying to make the justice system a little better. This week we watched STRANGER BY THE LAKE, a cautionary tale for the Promiscuous Homosexual trope. We give a lesson in cruising culture, the French film's meditations on sex, death, and desire, and the visceral (almost boring) sex on display. Joshua discusses a theory on incel behavior and the economics of Queer sex that may benefit us all. We share some of the most dangerous things we have done while trying to find a hook up. \n\nStraight Men Who Have Sex With Other Men: In Their Own Words by Michael Shelton \nDangerous Undertow in a Cruisers\u2019 Haven by A.O Scott\nStranger by the Lake review: Alain Guiraudie\u2019s spellbinding erotic mystery by Ben Walters\nSilence Equals Death in \u201cStranger By The Lake\u201d by Richard Brody\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
