We\u2019re all talking a mile a minute, and suddenly I need to remind everyone about that first blowtorch\/grinding scene in Magic Mike XXL when Channing Tatum goes from his strange, fast-motion superhero hip-hop moves to this sudden, exquisitely precise slow grind. Then I start thinking out loud \u2014 loudly! \u2014 about why that hotness can only happen in the context of a movie that\u2019s not remotely romantic, a movie that you\u2019re not supposed to take seriously. This is not you falling for the fucked-up high-capitalist wet dream of \u201cFifty Shades Darker,\u201d which is really just a self-hating fantasy of yielding all control to a merciless Daddy Warbucks, rendering all sexiness therein the sour kind of non-sexiness that perpetuates your own powerlessness. No, this is something far lighter and fluffier and somehow more empowering in a strange way, too. This is a cheesy dude who knows he\u2019s cheesy, whom you aren\u2019t in love with, who nonetheless does have an undeniable talent for the absurdly, inescapably, stupidly hot, slow grind. And you are the looker, the watcher, which means it doesn\u2019t matter what you\u2019re wearing or whether or not you showered that morning. All that matters is his exquisite ASS CRAFT.\u201d<\/section>\n<div class=\"cont quote_source\">\u2014 uhhh paging <a class=\"tumblelog\" href=\"https:\/\/tmblr.co\/mMxVxoIy2YAxofaxxjXoqTQ\">@sashayed<\/a> but also the entire internet, Heather Havrilesky is dropping some crucial and correct analysis of <i>Magic Mike XXL<\/i>, the only movie to have ever truly understood joy, in <a href=\"http:\/\/t.umblr.com\/redirect?z=http%3A%2F%2Fnymag.com%2Fthecut%2F2017%2F02%2Fask-polly-i-overshared-my-way-out-of-a-boyfriend.html&amp;t=MjNmYTk5NjZmMWE3YzI0ZDAxYzk1MWI0MDEwNzdmZTIzZmY3ZWNlOSxldkFZalFhcw%3D%3D&amp;b=t%3AYM0PBZuM5I_drJ0Ymnjt7w&amp;p=http%3A%2F%2Fisabelthespy.tumblr.com%2Fpost%2F157575855183%2Fthats-how-it-feels-to-have-a-drink-and-talk-a&amp;m=1\">this week\u2019s Ask Polly<\/a>, repeat, Heather Havrilesky, <i>Magic Mike XXL<\/i>, one of us<\/div>\n<div class=\"cont quote_source\">(via <a href=\"http:\/\/isabelthespy.tumblr.com\/post\/157575855183\/thats-how-it-feels-to-have-a-drink-and-talk-a\">not sculpture but syntax<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i didn&#8217;t even love magic mike XXL but i loved magic mike so of course i&#8217;m down with all of this: \u201cThat\u2019s how it feels to have a drink and talk a million miles a minute with my friends \u2014 like divine wickedness that leads inexorably to some crazy flavor of perfection.
