This roundtable began as many things both great and cursed do — in a conversation in the Autostraddle Slack. We briefly touched on the worst songs we’ve fucked to, and then, as we so often do, concluded that this was, in fact, content. What has been produced here, though, is kind of a cursed object. It is problematic in both the correct use and incorrect use of the word. There’s a lot here — little snapshots of moments in time — and the unavoidable truth that the same track from RENT appears twice. As Laneia, our Director of Operations put it, “This is what you put on to signal that everyone should leave the party immediately. Whoever’s still around by the time we make it to Johnny Cash isn’t invited over again.”

Here it is, for you all, in full. Be sure to drop down to the roundtable for everyone’s explanations as to how we got here.
So, what are the weirdest songs you’ve had sex to, intentionally or as often seems to be the case, otherwise? Share in the comments, friends!

Omg y’all I’m SCREAMING
oh my GOD
All of these are incredible but the Dead Kennedys is PERFECT
I mean, “Under the Sea” does say that “it is better down where it’s wetter” so is it really inappropriate? 🤷‍♂️
I scrolled to the comments for this and I was not disappointed!
Wow. Wow wow wow 🤣
All of these are incredible but the Dead Kennedys is PERFECT
there is so much chaos contained here, bless y’all’s hearts
This is A+ content (literally)
Every one of these is hilarious/horrifying and 100% worth the price of A+, thank you all for sharing, omg.
And especially Kayla, my soul left my body at the praise and worship music, and Carmen, “the little crab man” !!!
WOW
I was cackling at Under the Sea but LOST IT at the critical role theme song!!
My most memorable was fucking after watching A Clockwork Orange on DVD while Beethoven’s 9th just kept replaying after the credits. Mortifying.
Also. Lots of sex to the radio which is highly variable and also full of ads
the feature image!!!!!!
lol thank you Darcy
I, too, have fucked to Ring of Fire. While on shrooms.
Once I fucked to a compilation of classical music from Bugs Bunny cartoons. This one was someone else’s call.
The compilation of classical bugs bunny music!!!
we don’t talk about bruno feels like it would really work, so thanks shea. the soundtrack to moms fucking
This was AMAZING. one time my partner and I had talked about our love for Ethel Cain earlier in the night and so we almost put on Preacher’s Daughter – INCREDIBLE album but not at all what we were going for in a sex soundtrack akdjsjxj
Feeling unfortunately seen by Nico’s contribution for which I solemnly salute them.

You all have to tell us if anyone has actually listened to this as a playlist. I did put it on the other day when I was putting this post together and the combination of tracks is just hilarious.
I once had a fling who was obsessed with Aqua. Yes, we had sex to Barbie Girl and all the other songs from their 2(?) albums.
these are incredible!! and the playlist as a sex playlist should be seen as a challenge. one time i had classic fm on in the afternoon which turned to afternoon sex listening to classic fm which turned to fucking to griegs “in the hall of the mountain king” from peer gynt and once we decided to commit, it was good! it was camp! it was rhythmic!
“in the hall of the mountain king” is absolutely a rhythmic bop. agreed.
Petition for a “weirdest movie I’ve had sex to” because I never have music on but I have had sex with a lot of random movies playing that we put on to pretend we were gonna watch before having sex
This. Is a quality idea.
Once my ex and I were watching the Democratic presidential debate on TV and for whatever reason, this got us in the mood so we ended up going into my room to have sex but never turned the TV off in the other room, so the whole time we could still hear the debate going on :/
My Very First Certified Lesbian Experience(TM) was with the background of a ST:DS9 episode on, fittingly enough with my longtime crushes Jadzia Dax & Kira on. Being geeks, we had been watching the episode chanting “kiss, kiss, kiss” and then just ended up doing that–and loads more–ourselves. Highly recommend (for geeks, anyhow).
Nic Sam, this made me feel so seen as an apartment that has critical role in at least 30% of the time.
Oh my god the way I gasped “Nooooo” when I saw 21 Questions pop up! But the fact that danijanae fucked to a 50 Cent song in *this* decade? Is that camp???? That’s gotta be camp.
I had sex to the DVD menu of the original Halloween, so it was just the Halloween theme playing over and over again. But it worked in the context of the role-play we were doing!
I AM SCREAMING ABOUT THE HALLOWEEN THEME OMG
