In Post Cringe’s first guest episode, Elena and Skye enlist their “boy”friends (Will and Ted, respectively) to dissect some cringe instances of Guys Being Dudes. Reflecting on a recent article titled “The Case Against Aesthetic Castration,” they discuss the politics of sexual desire in art and debate whether the Getty Museum would use they/he pronouns. Elena describes something horrifying she saw at the LA Art Show, and Will talks about that guy who went viral on Twitter for coming out as a chaser in the middle of a warzone. They also offer genuine reflections on pronoun circles, the seedy world of pick-me guys, and their experiences listening to Red Scare as a form of self-harm.
