The Most Fun I’ve Ever Had With My Pants On

Drew: I was pretty butch in the 6th grade. I slicked my hair back like the Latina girls who rode in my barn. My face took up the whole rectangle in the yearbook and a boy named Tyler asked me out as a joke but I didn’t cry too much cause I had already had my first kiss in the second grade when the local Mazda dealer’s daughter licked my lips and stuck a tampon in my pussy in my big sister’s bathroom. My dad knew I was gay before I did, or perhaps he just liked the idea. Isn’t his jacket cool?

Charles: This shot was very off the cuff. Drew's lapel is messed up. I shot a lot of these pictures with a vintage Rolleiflex 6x6 camera, which is really good for portraits like this one.
