"A public sexual culture changes the nature of sex, much as
a public intellectual culture changes the nature of thought.
Sexual knowledges can be made cumulative. They circulate.
The extreme instances of this are in the invention of new
practices or pleasures, as Michel Foucault noticed when he
remarked that, with fist-fucking, gay men had invented the
first wholly new sexual act in thousands of years. Even apart
from this example, lesbians and gay men with relatively modest
tastes can still recognize that their own bodies have been
remapped by participation in a queer sexual culture, that
each touch, gesture, or sensation condenses lessons learned
not only through one’s own experience, but through the experience
of others."
