This scene highlights what has become the most successful aspect of Big Mouth, a show where we see the perils of puberty play out in all their raunchy glory. The show might be filled with jokes about inopportune erections and obsessive masturbation habits, but its tender look at bourgeoning sexuality is less about changing bodies than about how we learn to navigate a world where there is no clear roadmap for healthy sexuality, and where many of the messages we receive about sex are confusing at best and toxic at worst.

It’s in this particularly fraught context that Big Mouth emerges on the small screen, offering a portrait of heterosexual male coming-of-age that is sharp, nuanced and, above all, steadfast in its refusal to reduce female characters into mere objects of male obsession. One of the reasons for this has to do with the fact that the series has so many wonderfully layered female characters who are presented as equal friends in the strange journey through puberty. Both Jessi and Missy, as well as this season’s newest character Gina, are funny, smart and shown to be struggling with their own unique challenges that come from having sexual feelings and changing bodies.

But it’s not just the excellent female characters that make Big Mouth such a perfect show for the current moment. Rather, it’s that the show insists on demonstrating how the way that boys are socialized to be men is often incredibly destructive. Missy’s response to Andrew is humorous precisely because Andrew could very much benefit from some type of positive initiation into manhood, and, even though society very much caters to his experiences, the playbook he is being given is filled with mixed messages about what it means to be a man.

Andrew’s actions clearly aren’t tantamount to criminal behavior, but one of the most daring aspects of Big Mouth is the way that it demonstrates that learning to be sexual is something that is

If all this sounds a little too heartwarming and earnest, don’t worry. There are plenty of off-color sexual jokes and hilarious visual gags to keep Big Mouth from ever being exactly
