Hush – Jake Mathews and Luke Catton
This is the latest release from our “Queerly Ever After” series which reimagines gay tales through a gay erotic lens.
With “Hush,” we’re be paying homage to an iconic episode of the TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This episode was unique in that it was mostly devoid of speaking, yet still resulted in one of the most meaningful episodes of the entire series. So, how can we visually communicate a sex scene without speaking?
Answer: Through the body! Our bodies can communicate with their own language, conveying stories, intentions, emotions, desires, and feelings of pleasure and displeasure. We can gesture with our limbs, move in different ways, and express with our faces – and we can incorporate this into sex, too.
Still, communicating feelings and emotions can be challenging. It takes time to effectively cultivate our own body language and learn how to use it in relation to social cues. Even then, some of us have different brains and ways of communicating!
How can we use nonverbal communication in our sex to better attune to our partners and articulate how we’re experiencing our pleasure? That’s the invitation to our performers in this scene.
