WE'RE ASSHOLE BUDDIES.

[cimorene]

cim: So. 3.7 and 4.5 were... there was an American phrase he'd heard once, 'asshole buddies.' They hid it well; neither of them seemed at all--well, gay, or effeminate, or whatever.

cim: ASSHOLE BUDDIES?

cim: it's american? i feel so culturally impoverished!
wax: *goes to the urban dictionary*

1.        Asshole buddies
       
During WW2, sex was hard to get, and masturbation and fellatio were totally unacceptable practices. But in a foxhole environment asshole buddies could sodomize each other, in turn, without problem, as long as it was kept on the down low.

I get along pretty good with Pvt X. We're asshole buddies.

I'll bet those guys are asshole buddies.


2.        asshole buddies
       
Pals, accused of being so close they have become fudge packers.

John Kerry and the Breck girl weren't exactly asshole buddies until Kerry bit his tongue and chose him for Veep.

okay, so, several things strike me about this.  like for instance:

1. ASSHOLE BUDDIES?
2. anal sex was more socially acceptable than masturbation?
3. ASSHOLE. BUDDIES.

cim: there should be like an ann taintor icon. a 50s guy making a thumb's-up, going, "WE'RE ASSHOLE BUDDIES!"
perhael: YES.
perhael: now i want icons with like, every otp i've ever had
perhael: with ASSHOLE BUDDIES on it!

granted, by the church(es), masturbation is (and was) frowned on, but do we seriously believe that there were many guys in the 1940s who never did it? i find that nearly impossible to credit. what crack-headed loophoole of inside-out logic would lead them to - i mean, if you're taking the church THAT seriously, you could make a case for sodomy being forbidden by the bible - a stronger case than for masturbation being forbidden! i just. ahhhh. SOLDIERS. ahahhahahahah.
