Your Lovely Eek and Your Lovely Riah

I have inspired a gay porn star to start a bookclub (NSFW) for his fans, a la Oprah Winfrey. His first choice is Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy.

If you see anonymous comments over here from disgruntled porn fans who'd rather tootsie trade than read, you'll know why.

I swear I'm not being deliberately obtuse, but what does "tootsie trade" mean? It brings to mind one of two possibilities, and I shudder to think of the scatalogical implications of the one - too gross to consider it could actually seem appealing to anyone - much like the Cleveland Steamer...*shivers in revulsion*

Tootsie trade, sex between two passive homosexuals (as in: 'I don't do tootsie trade'). It comes from Polari (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polari), a form of language developed by gays in Britain when homosexuality was illegal so that they could identify each other in conversation without raising suspicion.

AWESOME!!! It's like having my own interpretation guide to "A Clockwork Orange". I'm definitely one of the cool kids now, thanks Ollie!
