Here are four of them: MELANIE—One younger man was not enough. She could take ...

Well, you live and you learn. I found out today I liked making love to another woman. Today I can't envision swinging without lesbian relations. And I understand that ninety-two percent of wives who get into swinging also ...

"In an extreme example of reportorial honesty, Wells manages to convey more ...
