Samantha Approved Awkward Sex & the City
Billy McFarland, two thousand condoms, L.A. daddies, OH MY…

New York City isn’t just the city of dating, it is notoriously also the city of sex. All the movies and shows you’ve seen highlighting the sex lives of New York residents only skim the surface of this intricately cringey world.
The sex depicted in Gossip Girl (pre disappointing reboot), Girls, or even Michael B. Jordan’s orange penis in That Awkward Moment doesn’t capture the concerningly alluring New York City sex world.
The world may understand the erotic tendencies of Fifty Shades of Grey, but can they handle the dirty reality of fucking someone in a taxi? That happens. Just ask your next taxi driver.
For New Yorkers, sometimes our non-city friends don’t understand our Sex Capades. Our desire to forgo the body count and focus on our sexual needs, no matter the cringey results, is well less encouraged.
To feel less sex insane, New Yorkers share a comradery for sex. We thrive by sharing our ridiculous stories because we know that the person across the table understands the ridiculousness, even if we just met them five minutes ago. Of course, we must share the tragic story of how we got period blood stains on our new white couch. Why would someone share such a wild story, you ask? It’s simple. New Yorkers laugh with you, not at you.
There’s one New Yorker that understands the importance of sharing these stories like no one else. And that’s Natalie Wall. The creator, producer, and headliner of Awkward Sex and the City, where New York’s sexiest storytellers and comedians bear their sexual tales to the world. It is comedic Sex and the City reboot Samatha Jones would get behind.
Last week, my girlfriends and I were lucky enough to catch a show at Littlefield in Brooklyn. We left feeling the most secure about our own New York City sex lives.
From cocaine-induced one hump and dumps to adolescent connections to the infamous Billy McFarland, Awkward Sex and the City was an hour and a half of New York comradery. Comedic brilliance starring Molly Austin, Gastor Almonte, Gus Constantellis, and Jenny Gorelick, transported you to a raw reality that left you in stitches.
The show was both awkwardly relatable and shockingly educational. Gastor’s sexual tale with New York State Condom Program made me realize that if Gastor can muster 2,000 condoms every 8 weeks from the city of New York, then men have no excuse for asking to go raw on the first date.
Molly Austin then made me understand that sex is way funnier when you’re high. It's even funnier when you’re in an involuntary dry spell. Though you may not be religious, Molly will have you asking, “am I doing this for God or for myself?” I just pray to God the dry spell ends for us all.
Awkward Sex and The City is a must-catch-show with your friends or the perfect self-date. You may go on a date with your significant other, but when you laugh too hard at the tale of an L.A. daddy, you may have to start explaining…
Go watch one of Natalie’s brilliant line-ups when you’re feeling regretful of your own sexual tales. Frank sex truths will leave you feeling proud of your own stories and encourage you to go make some more before your eighty and you begin to dread mounting someone.
Awkward Sex and the City turns the “sinful” act on itself by making it a laughing cure for sexual regrets. Find Awkward Sex and the City in a city near you, or you may regret that. Check out the tour dates here!
