The Sexist: Sex and Gender in the District

The City Paper Reviews “Saddlebacking”

Last week, sex columnist extraordinaire Dan Savage gave Rick Warren the Rick Santorum treatment by turning his life into a code-word for a sex act. “Saddlebacking,” named after Warren’s California Saddleback Church, will henceforth signify “the phenomenon of Christian teens engaging in unprotected anal sex in order to preserve their virginities.” (Santorum, incidentally, means “The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex.”)

City Lights Editor Mike Riggs, a born, bred, and lapsed Florida Christian, explains whether the definition rings true for evangelicals and fundies “looking to skirt rules about sex.” [Hint: they're more into oral].
