- More about Daddy Lessons
Daddy Lessons is a queer sexual awakening that explores the complexities of desire, obedience, and the exploitation of children by adults. It combines cowboy erotica with the sharp wit of Kathy Acker and delves into the essential texts of sexuality, including those of Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, Neil LaBute, Kip Moore, and Lorelei James. The book challenges the notion of what children desire and explores how such desires and disasters shape an aesthetic and a self.

Steacy Easton's memoir Daddy Lessons is a captivating exploration of their queer sexual awakening, blending elements of cowboy erotica with the sharp wit of Kathy Acker. Growing up in a Mormon community, queer, and autistic in the West, Easton's journey is a complex tapestry of people, places, and experiences that shaped their identity.
The book traces the influence of the Mormon church, an Anglican boys' boarding school where they were subjected to abuse, and later the world of rodeos, bathhouses, and mall bathrooms. Easton delves into the essential texts of their sexuality, ranging from Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick to Neil LaBute, Kip Moore to Lorelei James, and shares their own personal encounters as they navigated the complexities of coming of age.
Daddy Lessons takes a bold and unapologetic approach to exploring the desires of children, challenging societal norms and exploring the boundaries between love and abuse. Easton's meditations delve into the ways in which these desires and disasters shape an aesthetic and a self, creating something vibrant and alive from the muck of experience.
Through their memoir, Easton reclaims childhood and teenage wanting, offering a fresh and empathetic perspective on the complexities of queer sexuality. Daddy Lessons is a bold and tender exploration of desire, vulnerability, and the search for self-discovery, resonating with readers of all backgrounds.
