Gay Terms We Hate: Fudgepacker

We like to think “Gay Terms We Hate” inspires intelligent discussion and allows us all to offer up our thoughtful opinions in a environment safe for discourse. Also, ew – poop reference.

Today’s subject is a little different than the previous ones. “Fudgepacker” is actually a gay SLUR that I hate.

There are gay slurs you like, you ask incredulously? Yeah, it really depends on the usage and who’s saying it that makes it a slur, right? But I can pretty much stand firm in my opinion that no one out there is proudly referring to themselves as a “fudgepacker.”

Ugh, what a juvenile term. And if I’m calling it juvenile. It sounds like it originated in the school caf with some bodily function-obsessed 9th grader who has that odd straight guy curiosity with gay sex.

(Side note: You gays out there with straight guy friends. If you’re close with the heterosexual in question, have you received the inevitable “so, uh, what do you, ya know, DO with other guys…” question? Yeah, me too.)

And yeah, “fudgepacker” stems from moronic dismissal of anal sex between men as “gross”  and certain straight mens’ fears that if anything enters the butthole besides a doctor’s gloved fingers, they will suddenly be volunteering as the target face at a bukkake party. It’s just another way of denigrating one of our sexual behaviors. Cuz’ straight people NEVER have anal sex.

And yeah, “fudge.” Do we HAVE to explain to people about enemas, douching, making sure everything is tidy before the main event to people? No. When asked,  I certainly didn’t. Christ, it’s hard enough writing this post. I merely stated “you go in clean” and that was that.

Thoughts?
