For 3 years we have toured around the country and asked cyclists to understand a few curious items about our culture:
-
A) We US citizens have a history of repressing anything sexual. Maybe it is for
- the kids, maybe it is for the parents but for whatever reason many people have a hard time accepting sex for anything other than procreation. This wouldn’t be a problem on its own, but the culture of shame and silence has yielded us lots of confusion, pain and suffering (in a bad way). Open, honest, mature discussion goes a long way towards overcoming our puritanical history.
B) If we do not define what obscenity is, others will do it for us. Are you mature enough to set your own boundaries? We at BikeSmut.com are distrustful of those who would limit our access to ideas or my expression thereof. There are no signs at Wal-Mart telling you that the music you buy there has been filtered by someone you will never meet. We find this form of censorship reprehensible.
C) Bikes are sexy. It’s true, riding makes us healthier. But more than having an improved resting heart rate and killer legs, bikes themselves are sexy and the act of cycling
- is sexy. It could be the freedom we have when traveling under out own power. It could be the attention to detail in those beautiful custom frames. It could be the straining of muscles in rhythmic motions but for whatever reason it is exciting.
