Okay, so if you follow gay sex culture, you're well aware that fantasies come and go in hotness over the years. It's not always immediately obvious where these "scripts" come from, and how they get reproduced so quickly over wide geographic areas. So in a matter of weeks, a script popping up in Craigslist ads in San Francisco suddenly winds up in ads in Ohio. Something I've been noticing lately is the new phenomenon of "aged cum." Basically, this is a new script that usually top-identified men use in their ads by aging the load they want to impart. See the ads above for examples. The "three day load" seems to be the minimum, and the "seven day load" seems to be the extreme.
I have many questions. Do we think this is related to the rise in "breeding" and "seeding" language, and thus an attempt by guys to evidence the potential virility of their sperm? Or is it just guys trying to show that they REALLY need to get off -- like now? Or is it something else entirely? Just thought I'd throw it out for some healthy debate! What do you think it's about? Have you seen these kinds of ads in your town?
I've always understood it as a promise about the VOLUME of cum in the load - the longer it's been, the more (they think) there'll be...
Hah! What a load of... err... right. So I guess that means its popping up in Australia as well? I wonder where it originates...
Oh great! Now all of a sudden sperm has become the queer answer to wine. I think it is a mixture of what Daniel said and your point, Trevor, about "seeding" language in gay culture. There just seems to be this logic that the more sperm there is (inside of you) the better the top was. Sperm is an interesting cultural topic, because even going back to ancient times Jesus Juice has always been pumped up to more than it really is.
But damn, seven days, that is some serious commitment.
I prefer mine fresh, thank you very much.
What still amazes me, I think, is not the rhetoric or the script... but that we spend our time saving up our ejaculate only to waste it on someone we meet on craigslist.
If I'm going to "save up," it's gonna be for someone in particular. Note I didn't say someone special, just someone in particular (or some event in particular).
Well touch you, Nancy Drew! I think some boys from Craigslist can be very special indeed :)
