Boyslut

A Memoir and Manifesto

By: Zachary Zane

Narrated by: Zachary Zane

A sex and relationship columnist bares it all in a series of essays—part memoir, part manifesto—that explore the author’s coming of age and coming out as a bisexual man and move toward embracing and celebrating sex unencumbered by shame.

As a boy, Zachary Zane sensed that all was not right when images of his therapist naked popped into his head. He sometimes imagined other people naked, too, and without an explanation as to why, a deep sense of shame pervaded these thoughts. Though his therapist assured him a little imagination was nothing to be ashamed of, over the years, society told him otherwise.

Boyslut is a memoir-manifesto in which Zane articulates that, even today, we live in a world that shames people for the sex that they have and the sexualities that they inhabit. Through the lens of his bisexuality and much self-described sluttiness, Zane breaks down exactly how this sexual shame negatively impacts the sex and relationships in our lives and, through personal experience, shares how we can unlearn the harmful, entrenched messages that society imparts to us.

From stories of play sessions with a neighbor at age six to the first explorations of Zane’s bisexuality in college, as well as sex parties, orgies, and fun with butt plugs, Boyslut is reassuring and often painfully funny—and most potently, it is a testimony that we can all learn to live healthier lives unburdened by stigma.

So enjoyed!

Zachary narrated and did an excellent job, enjoyed his performance immensely.
I appreciated the glossary to kick off the story, and felt challenged by his take on STI prevention all things that expanded my understanding and perspective. Highly recommend and excited for whatever is next from him!

SEXINESS

Love the inclusivity and raw discussion about sex. it does bleed into everything just as other aspects bleed into sex.

Sublime Book for Inclusion and Community

This book was an invaluable inspiration to me as an example of the queer life and learning to accept your own differences from the norm.

Highly recommended for education

What a terrific book to listen too. Zach breaks the rule of don’t listen to a book read by the author. His reading is nuanced and I particularly liked the information on areas I’m not strictly familiar with. Spend the credit, well worth it.

fun and interesting

there are too few things like this about bi guys like myself in my opinion so I was interested just out novelty but this was a really good one. thanks!
