I'm over at my best friend Emily's house and it's snowing outside, so the two of us are cuddled up under a blanket, watching some cheesy lesbian romance movie on a premium cable channel. But as we watch, I begin to have thoughts, feelings about my best friend that have never really surfaced before now. Maybe it's just the proximity, the feeling of her body heat, or maybe it's the fact that I'm feeling a bit neglected by my boyfriend, and am substituting our intimacy for that.

When I first arrived at my mother's reception, I never imagined that I would meet the most attractive man I had ever seen - dark hair, piercing eyes, and a lazy, confident smile.... There was no way I could resist him. I certainly never imagined that I would be having mind blowing sex with him in the art gallery upstairs.

I could certainly never be sexually involved with my stepbrother....

Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu".

I've always been pretty damn nervous around my boss Mr. Atkins, and understandably so. Although I'm sure everyone tends to get antsy around their employers, the case is especially severe in Mr. Atkins' presence.

Reading can give you a pretty dirty imagination if you're not careful.... Lindsay's always been something of a shy girl. She's 18 and a virgin, and not at all ready for her induction into the hyper-sexual world of college life. For whatever reason, she's always found the idea of sex with men intimidating. And although she finds women attractive, and is a lot more at ease in the presence of a female, she's never really come to consider herself a lesbian, either. Her introduction to her own sexuality, then, comes when she happens to discover a book series of erotic literature and finds herself fascinated by it.

I'm traveling across the country on a bus, going to see my girlfriend Stacy who goes to school in another state. But, here's the thing - I actually feel no real attraction to Stacy whatsoever. In fact, I'm secretly gay, but I was brought up in such a strict environment that I've never really been honest with myself about it. I'm mostly dating Stacy to keep up appearances more than anything, and prior to my departure, I made the stupid mistake of taking a bunch of arousal medication to get me ready in case intimacy takes place when I get over to her place.

When I first arrived at my mother's reception, I never imagined that I would meet the most attractive man I had ever seen: dark hair, piercing eyes, and a lazy, confident smile...there was no way I could resist him.

I could certainly never be involved with my stepbrother....

I am going to get laid tonight, even if it takes going out of this world to do so.... Tonight is the night of my 22nd birthday, and I am not in a cheerful mood. I'm depressed because, after having so long ago entered sexual maturity, I have yet to lose my virginity. I'm not an unattractive girl by any means, but my shy, often prudish-seeming nature has made it next to impossible for me to get screwed, despite several promising, but failed efforts over the years.

I couldn't believe that I had lost my poor little lamb in this raging storm. As I wandered out into the driving rain and violent wind, the only thing on my mind was the recovery of my lost sheep so that we could both go home and get dry and warm. I never imagined that I would be accused of stealing, by two attractive, burly shepherds. And I never imagined what the two of them could do to my poor, innocent body....

When I went to work that day, I was not surprised when I was sent on a coffee run. I was absolutely shocked, however, to meet an incredible looking man at the coffee shop. I felt an instant connection to him, and I was overjoyed when I discovered that he was headed in my direction. I was even more surprised to discover that this man's father was married to my mother. I was crushed. I was certain that this connection could last forever, but now my hopes were shattered.
