> [@DesertDog](#): > > Should I be embarrassed I knew without looking it up? For those curious, the term was created (popularized?) in 2001 by Dan Savage in his Savage Love column.

We are talking about a man receiving anal sex, right? The way some of your people are talking, I’m starting to think it’s something outrageous. ---

Not that there’s anything wrong with that but it’s specifically involves a female partner and a tool. ---

Clutching pearls!!😳 Yeah, but it seems bad in an unsolicited text message from a creeper in a bath towel. Who has your name and number. ---
