But.... how?

This is a weird thing to ask, isn't it. I'm already failing as a friend.

[occupationalhazards]

[It's a really good thing TJ's so very comfortable with all things to do with sex.]

I mean, it's not a question I expected but. That's how people learn right? So just to clarify, you're asking how it works in the literal sense?

[endof_theline]

Sorry.

Uh- no. I mean... yeah. Maybe. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, though.

[occupationalhazards]

It's fine. You don't know what you don't know.

It's when a woman uses a toy -- generally a strap on, to have sex with a man.

[He's being more delicate with terminology than he would with most because Bucky seems truly embarrassed and being colorful with language here seems impolite.]

Obviously not everyone is into it, but some people are.

[endof_theline]

We never talked about these things growing up.

A strap on. So- that's...

[He trails off there, because he's trying to fit these things into context. Sure, he's been back a while, but nothing in his life has ever been about that. Not even close.]

Does the woman want this- or does the man?

[occupationalhazards]

That's fair.

It's basically a dildo that's fixed on a belt-like thing that she straps around herself.

[He pauses there at that last question though, because now TJ is Concerned.]

Well hopefully both do. Any kind of sexual act should definitely get an enthusiastic yes from both parties.

[endof_theline]

Got it. I guess that would make it easier to.... do it.

[He does know what a dildo is, at least. Women just never strapped them on themselves, back in his day.]

Right. Yeah, of course. But I mean- if a man wants it, why don't they just go be with another man? I thought that was ok these days.

[occupationalhazards]

Well, he might be attracted to women but curious about what it's like. And then he might find out he likes it, but he's still only attracted to women, you know?

And yeah, it is. You know, for most people. Lotta people still frown on it and say you're going to hell. Which, I probably am, but not for that.

[endof_theline]

And all of that's okay. Even if you're dating someone? It's just- okay?

Do you really believe that?

[occupationalhazards]

Yeah. Again, as long as everyone's on board. If they're not, no one should be pressuring them into doing anything they don't wanna do.

Which part? Going to hell because I'm gay?

[endof_theline]

Wow. Things really have come a long way.

No, you said for other things. But I guess also that, yeah.

[occupationalhazards]

I guess, yeah. [Still feels like they have a long way to go, sometimes.]

Well, if I'm being honest, I don't really believe in all the religious stuff. But I guess if there's a hell, I'm probably going there, yeah.

But not because I'm gay. I've just -- done some pretty shitty things over the years. Fucked up a lot.

[endof_theline]

[ They certainly do, but Bucky only has his own frame of reference. ]

So have I. I guess I'd be going there too.

[occupationalhazards]

Hey, at least we'll know each other.

[endof_theline]

Good company and all that, right?

Anyway- sorry for all these strange questions. Thanks for not getting weird or offended by them. You've been a big help.

[occupationalhazards]

Exactly.

Yep, no problem. Take care, Bucky.

[endof_theline]

Oh, uh. Thanks.

[He didn't mean that as like- he was done with this conversation, but he'll never be the one to push for more. TJs a busy guy.]

You too. Take care.
