F*cked: Being Sexually Explorative and Self-Confident in a World That's Screwed

by Corinne Fisher, Krystyna Hutchinson

Overview

“Corinne and Krystyna do the most brilliant, honest, and smart anti-slut-shaming stuff . . . they do much more than entertain: they really help.” —Jon Ronson, New York Times–bestselling author

When Corinne Fisher and Krystyna Hutchinson created the wildly popular Guys We Fucked: The Anti Slut-Shaming Podcast, they discovered just how many people have been made to feel like either a nasty slut or a sexually repressed nightmare.

What started as an outlet to interview—you guessed it!—guys they’d fucked, quickly evolved into a place to share stories of kinks gone wild, trauma, assault, and the overall confusion among people who don’t know what the fuck they are doing (in other words, everyone). 

F*cked brings these raw, ridiculous, and serious conversations from the podcast to the page. It is a guide to love and sex for anyone—female, male, trans, or undecided—who is fed up with double standards and the stigma surrounding sexual beings. It is for anyone who has ever felt afraid to be their authentic self. This book will teach you how to deal with shit, brush your shoulder off, and move on. You’ll also learn about:

• Why shame is completely made up and how we can stop giving into it
• Sexual exploration and how it sometimes ends in a trip to the ER
• Stuff we should stop doing: Snooping, nitpicking our bodies, and faking orgasms
• Asking your sexual partner uncomfortable questions
• Masturbation, threesomes, porn, sex toys, butt stuff, and much, much more

Despite what rom-coms and magazines tell you, you can handle sexual exploration without the assistance of a man, a glass of rosé, and a Xanax. More importantly, you’re fine all by yourself.

Editorial Reviews

Mixing dating advice with stories from their own sexcapades, comedians Fisher and Hutchinson expand on themes from their popular podcast, Guys We F*cked: The Anti-Slut-Shaming Podcast, in this unabashedly blunt guide to sex. The authors address topics such as slut shaming, three ways, and casual sex, all the while stressing the importance of communication, whether it’s about kinks, getting tested for sexually transmitted diseases, or using protection. Much of their advice is based on the simple premise that “secrecy feeds shame.” They counteract sexual taboos with brash humor and vulgar tales from their own personal lives, as with the story of Hutchinson’s unfortunate encounter with a dildo one recent Christmas that landed her in the ER with a burst ovarian cyst. On the topic of period sex, Fisher writes, “Having sex with a chick on her period is like getting a flash pass to an orgasm,” and suggests stealing a towel from the gym—it can get messy. Their more serious advice is often trite (“As long as we keep straight, single women questioning their value, men will always be the hottest commodity”), and the chapter on consent only skims the surface of an important issue for their target readership: young women. Still, their main message that women should not be ashamed of their sexuality comes across loud and clear. (Nov.)

Publishers Weekly

Corinne and Krystyna are funny, sexy, and really sexy. They get to the heart of the matter. Or should I say the cock of the matter. Just read the damn book, and get ready to masturbate...or cry.

ANDY DICK

I smell a hit!

DAVE ATTELL

Loved it. Whether you’re a nice Irish boy (like myself) or a lowlife pervert (like myself) or some combination, this book will help you get real (and like yourself).

COLIN QUINN

Corinne and Krystyna do the most brilliant, honest and smart anti slut-shaming stuff. For their legions of fans, they do much more than entertain: they really help. They are great and so is this book.

JON RONSON

Sex is so much more than the missionary position. F*CKED is necessary literature for the people of tomorrow. Read this book, open your mind, & feel shame no more.

AMBER ROSE

Corinne and Krystyna know more about fucking than I do—and I know *everything* about fucking. Buy this book, fuckers!

DAN SAVAGE

These ladies parlayed talking about sex into writing about sex. I don’t understand why. Writing seems like way more work. I haven’t been on the podcast because I tried to hook up with Krystyna years back and it didn’t go smoothly. So check out the book, I guess.

Hannibal Buress

“F*cked takes a hilarious, no-nonsense approach. This is the book you need if you’re looking for guidance on butt stuff, relationship faux pas, dealing with shaming, and much more.”

Bustle

What sets Fisher and Hutchinson apart is theirfrank and funny approach to taboo topics, and they brought this same attitude to F*CKED. The book is part manual, part confessional and part stand-up comedy. But it is all honest as fuck.

Bust Magazine

The book is their raw, arousing podcast put to paper, giving readers a mix of side-splitting and serious pillow talk.”
