This Conversation Took A Turn For The Oddity

(My boyfriend and I, a woman, are both bi/pansexual. I am talking to him about something else when David Bowie’s passing comes up.)

Me: “You heard about David Bowie, right?”

Boyfriend: “The world lost a great artist and an amazing penis.”

Me: “Really? That’s what you think of when you think of David Bowie?”

Boyfriend: “You’ve seen Labyrinth, right?”

Me: “Yes, but still. Not the time. And what are the odds it was padding?”

Boyfriend: “I am fairly certain it wasn’t padding. If you look at it—”

Me: “Why am I encouraging this conversation? Can we talk about something other than David Bowie’s penis, please?”

(Thankfully, my boyfriend was happy to change the conversation.)
