Maniant les th\u00e9ories queer et le genderfuck, abordant la honte, la d\u00e9pression, la maladie, la solitude et le sexe compulsif, Michael V.

J&#8217;avais l&#8217;impression que tout le monde sauf moi avait perc\u00e9 le code secret gay puisque j&#8217;\u00e9tais incapable de convaincre qui que ce soit de me fr\u00e9quenter. Le sexe en public me permettait de trouver un r\u00e9confort physique et d&#8217;oublier les soir\u00e9es en solitaire.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(Description Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupenotabene.com\/publication\/ceci-est-mon-corps\">Groupe Nota Bene<\/a>)<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><br \/>\nAuthor<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Michael V.
