If 2015 was the year of the hoverboard, it looks like 2016 is going to be the year of hoversex. As the old saying goes, “if something exists, leave it up to the internet to make a fetish out of it” — which is not actually an old saying, but something I just made up now — people having sex on hoverboards is a thing now. Of course, as it bears repeating every time, these gadgets are not actually hovering at all, but wheeled, self-guiding scooters — although that’s really inconsequential as far as to whether or not someone would want to have sex on one.
Videos of people boning on hoverboards have begun popping up on porn sites and on Twitter, but one might ask questions like, “Why hoverboards?” Or, “No really, why?” Vice’s Broadly did a bit of investigative journalism, and interviewed some people about the emerging kinky phenomenon. One man named Drew didn’t immediately understand the sex appeal, but he is also far from ruling it out.
“I have put a lot of thought into this,” he explains, “and I have asked my girlfriend at least three times if she’d be down to f*ck while I was on my hoverboard. Every time I ask she thinks I’m joking, and I am, but it’s in one of those Nelly ‘unless you gon’ do it type of jokes.”
It’s none of my business to tell anyone what they should or shouldn’t do in the bedroom, but the amount of hoverboard fail videos on YouTube suggests that maybe attempting coitus on one of those things is not the best idea. Not to mention their penchant for spontaneous combustion, so I don’t know if I’d want to get my bare genitals too close to one of those things.
