As a boy, Zachary Zane sensed that all was not right when images of his therapist naked popped into his head. He sometimes imagined other people naked, too, and without an explanation why, a deep sense of shame pervaded these thoughts.

Though his therapist assured him a little imagination was nothing to be ashamed of, over the years, society told him otherwise.

In Boyslut, Zane explores these feelings and questions why something as natural as imagination should be a source of shame.
