"Put Me In" is an examination of the role of American iconography in shaping ones' perceptions of manhood, as well as the desire to dominate those perceptions to create new understanding. As a queer individual, I am often at odds with societal expectations surrounding what makes a man. However, my identification with and attraction to masculinity, as well as those expectations, are only a reflection of the values instilled in me as an American male. This paradox forms the central theme of "Put Me In," where identity, attraction, and disillusionment meet.
