A non-binary queer person has experienced viral infamy and condemnation following a trip to Chicago last weekend.
“Filet Mignon” (aka @thatbanana.s.hadit on Instagram), posted to their followers about visiting the Windy City for work.
They co-hosted the music festival, Sanctum, last weekend. Filet told Queerty, “I work in political advocacy but in my spare time I’m a Party Mom and Pleasure Captain.”

What happened next is best explained in Filet’s own words.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Dear Community, As many of you know this past weekend I hosted @sanctumchicago. The organizer of the event let me stay in an Airbnb, but after the festival was over I begged the Airbnb owner, who lived underneath the unit, if I could stay another 2 nights and he obliged.”
“What happened over the next 40 hours was a sex bender so filthy and indulgent it made the devil himself blush (he was there.) I f*cked on both beds, backed up onto the couch to be double penetrated, let my juices drip off the dining room table and got plowed by my sex machine on the expensive rug.”
“While I thought I was taking necessary precautions to protect the property I actually saturated every permeable surface with coconut oil, silicone lube, and 17 loads from 11 different men.”
“I am reaching out in my time of need. I went to Chicago, partied like a rockstar, trashed an Airbnb, and can’t afford to settle the resulting debt. Anyone who can pitch in 100 will get a dirty jockstrap from this event mailed to them as I haven’t done my laundry.”
“I’ve attached some cute pictures from the weekend, along with a sampling of the 19 pictures the Airbnb host sent me of the damage I caused. If you have j*rked off to me, supporting my cause would be a great way to show your appreciation.”
Filet included ways to donate money. The Airbnb host estimated damage in the region of $500 but suggested they’d settle for around $300.

Gay Twitter reacts
Pretty soon, the posting had been screenshot and shared hundreds of times. And many people were not impressed.

“Disgusting, satanic behavior. I’m truly appalled and I’m gay I can only imagine a straight person reading this,” said one person who retweeted the posting.
“There’s a reason why people hate us….” said another.
“I hope they charge you interest,” said someone on Instagram. “This is beyond disgusting, a violation of another’s property and gives our community a bad name.”
Some suggested Filet Mignon donated the $350 they raised to community causes instead.
A few defended Filet, saying they behaved similarly in hotel rooms. Some friends and acquaintances also came to their defense.
Filet’s original Instagram posting was removed as it contained a rather risqúe video. They reposted it without that particular clip.
Taking accountability
Following a couple of days of savagery on Twitter, Filet Mignon posted a video to their Instagram today, saying “This is what accountability looks like.”
“It seems I really struck a nerve with some of y’all. I want to take accountability and clear up some misconceptions,” they began. “First of all, I want to say I’m sorry,” they continued, looking seriously deep into the camera.
“I’m so, so sorry that I’m funny and that the joke went right over your heads, causing you to slut shame and denigrate me, and really expose yourselves as self-righteous, jealous prudes.”
They continued, “I’m so sorry for having a no-holds-barred, outrageous, juicy, satisfying sex life. And if you don’t have that then you may not understand how these stains may end up on all the bedding at an Airbnb.”
They said they already donated to the community in many ways, which those who know them are well aware about.
“This post wasn’t meant for you. It was a joke. It was directed at my friends and people who want to f*ck me.”
Filet said people post about their sexual exploits all the time on OnlyFans and charge for it. By comparison, Filet was only asking for voluntary donations.
They concluded by saying they’d raised their goal to $1,000.

Contacted by Queerty, Filet said they had no major regrets about the Airbnb stay.
“I am surprised by the massive, clout chasing pile on of negative feedback and hot takes regarding my Airbnb story. I expected it to get mixed reviews, but the twitter gays aren’t very good with nuance and really let me have it.
“People who actually know me, and plenty who don’t, understood that it was a joke and they have been exceptionally supportive. I’m a dirty, irreverent, sexually liberated queer and I guess I live in that bubble.
“I had a blast, I didn’t hurt anyone, I stained some textiles and told my friends about it. I have no meaningful regrets. People need to not take shit so seriously. Party on.”

Perhaps but you did create a lot of unnecessary work and stress for the house keeper, the host, and anyone else that has to clean up after you. This is a kind of entitlement that someone can have their fun and just throw money at people to pick up the mess. They don’t care who gets wrapped up in their tornado, as long as the person gets what they want.
gumblin
The host seems fine with it – don’t you think they would have gone through airbnb or charged them the full amount if they were pressed?
still_onthemark
The dictionary says filet mignon is a LEAN cut. “They” is obviously too fatty to fit the definition!
““People who actually know me, and plenty who don’t, understood that it was a joke….” Understood that WHAT was a joke? – the begging for donations? the orgy itself?
mz.sam
NO SHIT, SHERLOCK! On the contrary, not Filet M…but it’s more like Fois Gras (forced-fed goose).
stanley
I’m not judging their sexual activities. Enjoy life. What’s shameful is asking strangers on the internet to pay for the mess they made. But he was just telling a joke to his friends. That’s not how Instagram works. We all see it. Worse that he knows it and this was just a publicity stunt.
andrewl
I totally agree. Imagine being an adult gay man who cannot even take responsibility for their own actions (no judgement at all on their actions as long as safe and consensual) and has to go to Go Find Me to raise a paltry few hundred dollars. If it was a joke then the money raised should be donated to a charity (maybe a cleaners fund).
HalcyonDays
The dreaded “it was a joke” defense. It makes no sense.
Do want you want to your own property in your own home, but don’t inflict your fetish and behavior on other people who have to clean up after you.
As another poster said, it’s entitlement, although I imagine “Filet Mignon” would call it sexual freedom.
Gross.
ZzBomb
No thank you .

Yeah, no one give a shit about his sex life. It’s the callous disregard and destruction of other people’s property that people are pissed about, and then begging for donations to pay for it. I have a very vibrant and active sex life and manage not to destroy furniture or bedding, even when I’m in a rental.
I hope AirBnB bans him too.
Invader7
Ewwww… ” Filet Mignon ” needed to have taken up a collection before the orgy from his fellow participants. And therefore wouldn’t have had to ask online for funds..
James
WHAT A LOSER.
Mark Smith
Annnnd… We’re done, here.
BEPVA
I’m all for sexual liberation and enjoying a healthy sex life.
I’m not down with ruining other people’s property – then expecting others to clean up after you and asking others to pay for it.
BTW – It’s not a joke when nobody is laughing.
Own Your Sh*t, Bitch.
Shady Gaga
If he did do it, which I doubt (who would have sex with that ugly mess?) nobody should pay for his disgustingness. However, I’m pretty sure this was just a ruse to roust up some $$$ through Gofundme.

The level of entitlement is high. Why fon’t you and the 11 other men or non-binary people take responsibility for your own actions.
Act like a grown up. Stop asking for handouts.

To quote Krusty the Clown “it’s a joke, when you give that look it’s a joke.”

@ Jack Meoff ……totally agree. Just having some fun

The fact that he can’t afford $500 damages speaks volumes to me. JMO.
Joshooeerr
If that hunk of blubber can be a “filet mignon” then I guess it can also be non-binary. Words mean nothing any more.
